| Solution | Substation |
| Machine: | Substation of 15 MVA |
| Objective: | Enable the factory expansion investing in 100% of the substation project |
| Results: | • Connection to a power grid capable of powering 100% of the factory’s demand • Predictability of the substation’s operation and maintenance costs |
| Solution | Cogeneration of Natural Gas |
| Machines: | • 3 Motogenerators run by Natural Gas – 12,000 kW • 2 Chillers of Hot Water Absorption – 1,400 TR • 3 Recovery Boilers – 6.9 tonnes/h • 1 Compressor of Nitrogen Enriched Air – 500 kg/h • 1 Plant of CO² Generation – 78 tonnes per da • 3 Boilers run by Natural gas – 16.8 tonnes/h |
| Objective: | Ensuring the provision of utilities with efficiency and quality |
| Results: | • Recuperation of more than 80% of electric events caused by the concessionaire. • Guaranteed delivery of all factories’ utilities at a fixed price • On-site stock of 660 tonnes of CO² for local and external supply • Operation and maintenance of the entire unit of utilities under Ecogen’s responsibility • Possibility of selling the spare energy to other unities of the group with incentives (50% in TUSD) |
| Solution | Cogeneration run by Natural Gas and a Cold Water Central |
| Machines: | • 2 Motogenerators run by Natural Gas – 2,700 kW • 1 Chiller of Hot Water Absorption – 300 TR • 2 Electric Chillers – 1,200 TR • 3 Air Compressors – 7 bar |
| Objective: | To complement the electric demand from the concessionaire that would not serve 100% of the factory’s charge |
| Results: |
• Predictability of the operation and maintenance costs of the utilities central and of the compressed air system • Utilization of cogeneration to generate hot water (heater run by natural gas as a backup) • Meeting the electric demand, as well as the hot and cold-water necessities of the factory |
| Solution | Biomass Boiler |
| Machines: | Biomass Boiler - 50 tonnes/h |
| Objective: | To reduce the steam production cost |
| Results: | • Reduction of 35% in steam costs • Environmentally responsible industry • Less than 55,000 tonnes of CO² emission per year |
