Steam eHandbook: Best Practices for Steam Systems
2014-05-21 16:35:00| Chemical Processing
Operating and maintaining a reliable steam system is vital to chemical processing plants and can have significant cost impact on a plant's annual budget. Typical profit drainers in operating and maintaining a steam system include excessive fuel cost, inefficient steam generation, less-than-optimal steam utlization and poor condensate recovery. Ensuring adequate supply of steam often results in excessive capacity usage, expensive fuel choices or condensate draining to grade, leading to compromised efficiency levels and higher steam cost. Because steam systems dependency is unavoidalbe, addressing those three issues is crucial to minimizing steam costs.This Chemical Processing Steam eHandbook presents an overview, steam technologies and strategies for reducing cost associated with using and generating steam including: Controlling steam system energy costs Real-time monitoring - how wireless devices help cut energy losses by detecting failed steam traps Additional resources Learn how to generate savings through steam use and generation.
