商品簡介
Fuel consumers face a double challenge. One is economic – to get the best heating value for every fuel dollar. The other is environmental – to keep emissions low, at least within legislated limits. Fortunately, what benefits the first objective also benefits the second.A boiler installation costing $75,000 can easily consume over $400,000 in fuel every year. Consequently, even with very economical fuel costs, a difference of just a few percentage points in boiler efficiency can translate into substantial savings. Understanding boiler operating costs is the key to maximizing investments year in and year out. This 6 - hour Quick Book provides simple facts and energy efficiency opportunities in the areas of combustion management, makeup & feed water management, condensate return, blow-down system, waste heat recovery and steam distribution & utilization. This book focuses on these aspects and suggests the possible improvements in 3 main areas:1. Combustion Management2. Makeup, Feedwater, Condensate & Blowdown Management 3. Steam Management (distribution & use)This course is aimed at mechanical, chemical & process engineers, system design engineers working in power, oil & gas, chemical, metal & mining, manufacturing and engineering industries, energy auditors, operational and maintenance personnel. Learning ObjectiveAt the conclusion of this course, the student will be aware of: ‧ Direct and indirect method for evaluating boiler efficiencies‧ Establishing list of energy losses in a boiler system ‧ Combustion analysis; Excess air control and Air-Fuel mix‧ Heat recovery systems (economizers, preheater, flue gas condensing etc)‧ Waterside and fireside problems ‧ Boiler water treatment approaches‧ Importance of condensate recovery‧ Blowdown optimization and waste heat recovery using flash tanks/ heat exchangers‧ Energy efficiency in steam distribution ‧ Energy efficiency in steam utilization‧ Automation using burner controls and oxygen trims‧ Boiler audit checkpoints & questionnaire
