10 Tips to Reduce Natural Gas Consumption Process Heating Systems
Think for a while
Do you have to buy a new device for energy saving?
Think once again
Equipments
These tips can reduce your energy consumption up to %2-5:
- To minimize the heat loss and to help keeping the heat of outer surfaces of the ovens low; pay attention to the point that the walls and doors of your ovens are well isolated.
- Reduce or remove the water cooled parts in your oven; if you can not remove, well isolate and so prevent them from transmitting heat outside.
- Control the combustion air in ovens and other gas-fired devices, turn it to the lowest level in which the process can be performed safely.
- In order to minimize heat loss and prevent the air inlet; reduce the number of doors in ovens and other gas-burning devices and minimize the gaps on device wall.
- By using pressure control units in the ovens; minimize the hot air leakage from insiede to outside and minimize the cold air inlet from outside to inside.
- To minimize the excessive air amount of the system and in order not to leave hydrocarbon-unburned within exhaust gases ( carbon monoxide, methane and smut) control the air-fuel mixture ratios by means of automatic systems.
Maintenance
These tips may reduce your energy consumption between 2-5%:
- To improve the heat transfer efficiency; frequently clean the surfaces of heat transfer units such as coil, radiant pipes and electrical heating systems.
Operation
These tips may reduce your energy consumption between 10-25%:
- By recycling the heat in exhaust and chimney gases; consider using it for heating air, water and oils or for pre-heating of weighting material that is applied to oven or furnace.
- By placing a recuperator or recycle heat exchanger in order to recycle the exhaust gases given out from the oven; consider applying pre-heating to the combustion air.
- Try to provide an efficient operation application; by using the heating equipments in their full capacity or approximately in design capacity and to perform these minimize the time gaps between production conversion durations and also minimize the weights of holding apparatus, trays or baskets.
