Optimizing Sugar Mill Boiler Performance
Jim Cahill
Steam boilers are used in sugar mills to generate electricity and for heat in various stages of production, such as crystallization process . This process converts the sugar syrup into sugar crystals. Optimizing the performance of the boilers improves energy efficiency and reliability for this required heat and electricity. I caught up with Emerson’s Scott Pettigrew when he was in town last week and he shared the story…

Energy Overconsumption Alerts
Jim Cahill
Energy management information systems, such as Energy Advisor , can help spot, alert operators and report on energy overconsumption events. In this quick, 46 second YouTube video, Energy Advisor: Overconsumption Alerts , it shows how to identify and log root causes for energy over-consumption events. From this data, energy managers can review Pareto charts indicating the most frequent and costly reasons for these events…

Improved Emissions and Lower Fuel Costs at RDM Blendecques
Jim Cahill
Italian recycled paperboard producer, Reno De Medici (RDM) Blendecques mill in Saint Omer, France had a big challenge to modernize a control system with a short time window during a planned shutdown. The control system managed two Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs) that produce steam for the process from two gas turbines and additional burners. Even more important was the need to reduce emissions by optimizing…

Measure, Monitor and Improve Energy Efficiency
Jim Cahill
A recent Top Quartile post, The Path to (Energy) Recovery: Reduce Waste to Boost the Bottom Line , shared a statistic from the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy : …the energy used by U.S. manufacturing plants costs the nation an additional $180 billion annually , while improving energy intensity by 20 percent or more is typically available. That could add up to savings of about $45 billion a year. Improving…

Renewables Growing Faster than Expected
Jim Cahill
Author: Juan Carlos Bravo As we have been reporting in this blog, the energy scenario is changing. In fact, it might be changing faster than anyone expected due the low oil prices. As reported by the World Energy Outlook 2015 , “renewables contributed almost half of the world’s new power generation capacity in 2014 and have already become the second-largest source of electricity (after coal).” Source: Twitter.com…

Grid Complexities and the Race for Energy Storage
Jim Cahill
Douglas Morris Author: Douglas Morris Apple just announced that they plan to construct a 200MW solar project in China to help the company meet its goals for carbon neutrality. One of the concerns, though, is whether or not the local transmission & distribution grid system can accommodate this renewable generation. It’s a concern because there have been numerous solar installations in China that are idled because…
