Transforming Industries with Specialty Chemicals
Explore how Triveni’s innovative chemical solutions are revolutionizing key industries, enhancing efficiency, and driving sustainable growth.
STEAM SAVING – PAPER INDUSTRY
Case Study: Enhanced Dryer Efficiency in Paper Machine Using Dropwise Condensation Technology
Challenge
One of our customers was facing a critical issue of insufficient steam availability in their boiler, which hindered their ability to maximize production. Installing a new boiler was not a viable option due to the high capital expenditure (CapEx) involved.
Solution
Triveni introduced its innovative Dropwise Condensation Technology, designed to enhance efficiency in the dryer section of the paper machine. This cutting-edge solution enabled:
• Improved heat transfer efficiency.
• Optimization of existing plant configurations to deliver higher output without the need for additional CapEx.
Results
The deployment of Dropwise Condensation Technology delivered significant benefits:
• Efficiency Improvement: Achieved an approximate 20% increase in efficiency within the dryer system.
• Increased Production Capacity: Enabled the customer to boost production without requiring a new boiler.
• Energy Savings: Reduced energy consumption while maintaining existing operational functionality.
• Cost Savings: Eliminated the need for high CapEx investments in a new boiler.
Key Benefits
• Increased production capacity.
• Reduced capital costs.
• Continued use of existing operational infrastructure.
• Energy savings, enhancing overall sustainability.
This innovative solution allowed the customer to overcome production constraints efficiently and cost-effectively, ensuring long-term operational success.
Improved Sludge Management in Coal Mine
Case Study: Improved Sludge Management in Coal Mine
Challenge
The customer was struggling with low sludge compaction and poor water clarity in their coal mine operations. This resulted in the need for multiple sludge ponds, frequent cleaning, and significant loss of reusable water.
Solution
Triveni provided comprehensive on-site support, which included:
1. Chemical Expertise: Selection of suitable chemicals tailored to the specific needs of the sludge management process.
2. Dosing System: Implementation of an efficient dosing system to optimize chemical usage.
3. Manpower Support: Deployment of a trained technical team to ensure seamless operations and monitoring.
Results
The intervention led to significant improvements:
• Enhanced Sludge Compaction: Sludge compaction time was reduced by 50%, minimizing the time required for pond filling.
• Improved Water Clarity: Clear water was recovered and reused in the plant, which was previously not possible.
• Operational Efficiencies: The reduced sludge pond filling rate decreased the frequency of cleaning, thereby cutting labor and transport costs.
Key Benefits
• Increased water clarity.
• Improved sludge compaction.
• Reduced pond filling rate.
• Lowered labor and transport costs.
This solution not only addressed the customer’s immediate challenges but also contributed to sustainable and cost-efficient operations in their coal mine.
