Process Plant Optimisation refers to a methodology that aims to eliminate energy wastage and enhance process efficiency by eliminating redundant process steps, shortening cycle times and attaining improved and higher-quality yields. Modernization and optimisation are the key prerequisites for long-term successful plant operation.
Process Plants are subject to continuous adjustment pressure for optimisation in the areas of new or changing feed materials, product specifications as well as environmental regulations and demands on energy savings.
Common industrial processes and systems, such as steam, cooling water, process heating, and electric motors consume most of the energy and offer significant opportunities for savings. Process changes such as advanced controls, new catalysts, and new technologies also present opportunities for plant optimization.
Process Plant Optimisation & Energy Conservation training course will provide a comprehensive review of the various aspects of process plant integrity as an essential foundation for sustainable plant profitability and optimization
