What is the energy consumption per unit of output for each of you?

Thread Content

Colleagues in the air separation industry: In response to the call for energy conservation and the need to improve energy efficiency and corporate profitability, reducing energy consumption in air separation processes within the coal chemical industry is a very positive step. However, based on the current perception of those in the industry, it seems that there is not much awareness regarding the energy consumption associated with air separation processes today, as no one has conducted any relevant statistics on this topic. So, I take the liberty of doing this. The format is as shown in the table below. Serial Number | Scale | Product Type | Circulating Water Volume | High-Pressure Steam | Medium-Pressure Steam | Low-Pressure Steam |
