Industrial boilers are vital across numerous sectors, powering processes in manufacturing, energy production, chemical processing, and more. Proper maintenance is key to extending boiler life, ensuring safety, and maximizing efficiency, which ultimately reduces operational costs and minimizes downtime. In this guide, we explore why boiler care is critical, outline key maintenance steps, and ...
One educational webinar covered outcomes from various intern projects using ultrasound for steam trap testing. In this webinar, two interns with the 2018 Iowa Pollution Prevention Intern Program, discussed using ultrasonic leak detection to conduct assessments and identify inefficiencies for steam system optimization at their host companies. ...
Based in Export, Pennsylvania, BEI engineers and manufactures the HEATSPONGE brand of best-in-class indirect contact heat recovery units for use in both commercial and industrial steam and hot water applications. The acquisition of BEI is expected to provide Thermal Energy with the following immediate benefits: Expanded complementary product offering to include indirect ...
Thermal Energy has worked closely with the NHS over the last 3 years to develop a number of energy saving and emission reducing projects for both its Flue Gas Condensing Economiser and its GEM venturi orifice steam traps. This was the 6th heat recovery collaboration project between a NHS Trust and Thermal Energy International. ...
In particular, the Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat and Wireless Steam Trap Monitor will be important tools for the government to achieve its goal of reducing energy intensity in its facilities by 30% as required in Executive Order 13423 and the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. ...
A few of the upgrades and efficiency measures Ameresco will begin to implement this month include: Retrofit over 7,100 light fixtures and automated lighting controls Integrate new “open protocol” web-based energy management system Repair and / or replace over 290 steam traps Address weatherization and insulation needs across all ...
Thermal Energy’s products include; GEM® - Steam traps and condensate return systems, FLU-ACE® - Direct contact condensing heat recovery, and Dry RexTM - Low temperature biomass drying systems. ...
TEI’s products include its GEM venturi orifice steam traps and its flue gas condensing heat recovery economisers. Instead of utilising a valve mechanism to close off steam, the highly efficient GEM steam traps use the patented venturi orifice design to effectively drain condensate from the ...
Conservation measures have included new window installations, insulation improvements, steam radiator control valves and steam traps, water conservation measures, high-efficiency lighting upgrades, and ENERGY STAR(R) rated refrigerators. ...
Some of those efforts are applications of well-known measures, while others are based on insight and analysis from members of the MIT community. For example, simply testing steam traps in the campus-wide heating system and replacing those that had failed has already resulted in an estimated annual savings of $800,000 -- more than the one-time cost of the ...
