How See-Thermisave can help you?

As BEE explain: You as Energy Manager

Focal point of all the activities pertaining to energy management in the organization

Establish an energy conservation cell

Develop & manage training program for energy efficiency at operating levels

Prepare Annual Activity Plan

Develop integrated system of energy efficiency and environmental improvement

Establish/participate in information exchange with other energy managers of the same \sector through association.

Provide information to BEE & Designated Agency of the respective states as demanded in the Act

Co-ordinate implementation of energy audit/efficiency improvement projects through external agencies Initiate activities to improve monitoring &

process control to reduce energy costs

Sustained energy conservation efforts Plant energy usage needs to be evaluated on regular & continual basis Ensure energy efficient working of the factory at equipment, utility, process & plant level Continual improvement in establishment’s energy performance levels

A strategic approach to accomplish this would involve: 

Creation and maintenance of a detailed database from equipment design specification to the operating parameters;

      Create Benchmarks & Monitor Energy Consumption with reference to it;

      Facilitate Identification of Energy Conservation Opportunities on a continual basis;

      Facilitate evaluation of Techno-Economic Feasibility of these Opportunities;       Facilitate Implementation of the Measures; Monitoring, Verification & Reporting the Savings.

What See-ThermiSave can do for you? – its Features

Boilers

Regular Monitoring of Equipments Ensures BEST way of Optimum Energy Utilization in Plants

1 Recording Fuel receipt & determining deficits if any, Storage accounting and Pre-heating/ pre- conditioning Requirements; implementation better fuel management practices

2. Incorporating Boiler specification & comparison with norms: a must have information for energy conservation efforts

3. Observation table for boiler efficiency tests: User takes the printout & caries out the test

4. Direct efficiency test calculations: The output also includes Evaporation Ratio (Kg of steam/Kg of fuel) & Steam Cost (Rs/Kg)

5. Indirect efficiency test calculation: Also displays % excess air (By CO2/O2), %Dry gas loss, %Wet gas loss, %Blowdown Loss

6. Choice of fuel for Steam Generation: To ascertain lowest steam cost

7. Savings by reducing Dry Gas Loss through excess air reduction & Stack Gas temperature

8. Savings in Ash loss by reduction in un-burnt Carbon & Waste-heat recovery options

9. Idling losses due to oversized boilers (Derating of boilers for savings)

What See-ThermiSave can do for you? – its Features

Furnaces

1. Incorporate specification for furnace with & without Chemical Reaction, Batch/Continuous, Steam/Fuel fired, Rectangular/Cylindrical

2. Measurement of Furnace Efficiency (Direct & Indirect): Also computes %Radiation loss, % Loss due to Moisture %Dry gas loss, %Wet gas loss, heat carried away by product, Avg. fuel consumption; Documents ID & FD fan power consumption; Ensures fuel properties

3. Energy conservation by Feed screw / loading improvement

4. Waste heat recovery options through Economizer and Recuperator

5. Energy conservation by Reduction in furnace volume
