Enterprise steam consumption and cost control--Full utilization of waste heat recovery

Thread Content

1...Many enterprises use steam as a heat source in their production processes for process heating/heat exchange. However, for the discharge and control of steam condensate after heat exchange, most enterprises still use traditional steam traps for this purpose. But this has invisibly caused a leakage of at least about 5% of the steam volume. The more drain valves a company uses, the greater the amount of fresh steam (unheated) that leaks. 2...When high-temperature condensate is discharged into tanks in a low-pressure or atmospheric pressure environment, a large amount of flash vapor is generated. This not only wastes this heat but also has a severe negative impact on the production environment (with smoke and vapor everywhere). The heat contained in this flash vapor is very valuable; if it can be recovered, it would bring significant benefits to the enterprise. Currently, the price of steam in the market is around 200 yuan per ton. If one ton of flash steam can be recovered and reused, the company will be able to reduce its consumption of one ton of fresh steam. In this way, enterprises not only reduce energy consumption and improve their production environment, but also save more energy for society. 3...Currently, many companies in the market are capable of carrying out condensate recovery; they use high-temperature water pumps to transport hot water (at around 60-100 degrees Celsius) to boilers or to replenish water in circulation tanks for use. However, circulating water needs to be cooled using cooling towers; reducing condensate water with such high temperatures to normal levels requires a large amount of electrical energy, which in turn leads to increased energy consumption and higher production costs for enterprises. In some companies, the hot water has no practical use, so they are forced to discharge it on-site, resulting in waste and loss of water resources. At the same time, environmental protection agencies charge companies for the wastewater they discharge, which further increases costs. 4...If a company faces the issues mentioned above and wishes to resolve them in order to reduce production costs, it can get in touch with me.
