Low-Investment Operational Strategies for Industrial Steam Distribution

The 3 kEys  A small hole in a high-pressure steam line can result in shocking energy losses.  A leak as small as one-eighth of an inch in a steam pipe operating at 100 psi can waste more than $5,000 worth of steam per year.    In facilities without a proactive steam trap maintenance program, failure rates […]

Maximizing Industrial Steam System Efficiency: Proven Measures for Energy Savings

The 3 kEys  In traditional boiler systems, significant amounts of heat escape through exhaust gases, representing a considerable loss of potential energy.  Capture this waste heat and redirect it to preheat incoming feedwater or combustion air.  Inefficient insulation of steam piping, valves, and fittings leads to significant energy losses, with uninsulated surfaces dissipating heat unnecessarily
