The Forbes Marshall thermocompressor and cascade based steam and condensate system resulted in improvement of drying rates by 15% and ramped up machine speed by 33% from 200 mpm to 300 mpm. The productivity improved from 110 TPD to 170 TPD with reduction in specific steam consumption from 2.8 kg of steam/ kg of paper to 1.6 kg of steam / kg of paper.
Design of steam and condensate loop by Forbes Marshall has helped us achieve complete heat and mass balance and a specific fuel consumption of 22 lit of furnace oil per ton of paper.
The Forbes Marshall steam trap based steam and condensate system resulted in improved surface temperature of dryers from 90 °C to 115 °C. Machine speed ramped by 30% from 70 mpm to 100 mpm. Productivity improved from 45 TPD to 70 TPD with reduction in specific steam consumption from 230 liters of LOO / Ton of paper to 160 liters of LOO /Ton of paper.
The Forbes Marshall thermocompressor, stationary syphons and condensate recovery system resulted in improvement of drying rates and helped achieve specific steam consumption of 1.25 ton/ton of paper with machine speeds ramped upto 350 mpm. Drying rates of 18-21 kg/h-sq.m which is in line with TAPPI standards . Condensate recovery factor of 93% achieved.
We achieved a saving of 12% In our fuel bill by replacing water logged traps and recovery of condensate back into feedwater tank. The flash steam is used in steam shower which has given an additional saving of a percent in annual fuel bill. Our overall makeup water consumption has also reduced by 22%. We thank Forbes Marshall for their inputs and engagement to help us achieve savings.
