Decarbonization

We'll help you

  1. minimize energy use by your equipment
  2. optimize your system to ensure maximum efficiency of energy use by production process
  3. decarbonize energy generation by replacing fossil fuels with renewables or installing carbon capture on fossil fuel installations


 

To accomplish this, we will

  1. help you establish your baseline of utility generation, including fuels and energy used, efficiency, operational practices, and heat usage.
  2. identify areas within your plant and processes where energy use can be minimized or eliminated by applying solutions such as reducing setpoints, upgrading process equipment, and decreasing cycle times. 
  3. show you how to maximize efficiency of energy use within your plant and production processes by eliminating energy losses, de-steaming, electrification, and recovering waste heat, as appropriate.
