Boost your boiler
The boiler is one of the most important elements in many industrial operations. Energy costs are
directly linked to their efficiency. Fortunately, there are a few simple ways to help your boiler system
to run efficient, function with less fuel, and reduce operating costs.
EE Measures & RE for boiler system:
Save energy consumption by regularly maintaining and cleaning your boiler.
Identify and reduce leaks in the steam system.
Insulate boilers, pipe networks and valves.
Reduce boiler pressure by an acceptable amount for the required operation process.
Maintain steam traps regularly and identify non-performing traps.
Calibrate your boiler to achieve the highest combustion efficiency.
Install economizer for waste heat recovery.
Evaluate if you can downsize the boiler.
Establish a treatment for the boiler feed water to control deposition, eradicate impurities and prevent corrosion.
Install an automatic blowdown-control system for the boilers to minimize scale, corrosion, carryover, and other specific problems.
Investigate alternative fuels for your boiler system, e.g., “replace heavy oil fuel by LPG”.
Install solar thermal system on rooftops for pre-heating of the boiler feed water.
Lighting a better way
Proper industrial lighting is essential for any work environment. Lighting improvements can enhance
worker well-being, safety and productivity. Moreover, the right use of lighting also reduces energy
consumption.
EE Measures for lighting system:
Turn lights off when not used.
Increase use of daylight where and when possible.
Optimize lighting levels; Measure the lux (amount of illumination) for each area and re-distribute
the lighting units based on the required lighting levels.
Replace old/traditional lamps with new LED efficient lamps - LEDs use up to 75% less energy and
last up to 25 times longer than traditional incandescent bulbs.
Install sensors and timers to automate lighting control or use a full lighting monitoring and
control system (BMS*) - A poorly set up BMS, or the absence of a BMS, will typically result in a
building using 10 to 30% more energy.
*Building Management System.
Clearing the air
Like any major industrial investment, regular cleaning and maintenance of your compressed air
system will improve efficiency. Make sure yours isn’t wasting air.
Energy Efficiency (EE) Measures for Compressed Air system:
