Renovis and thermal saving systems in industrial plants
In these cases, the use of fuel is considerable and by nature, it grows with the increase in the size of the production plant. In recent years, enormous efforts have been made by energy efficiency companies to find solutions to this issue that aimed to maintain the production standards of the plants while reducing fuel consumption.
Improving the thermal efficiency of production plants has positive consequences on two fronts: on the one hand, companies optimize their earnings by reducing costs, and on the other, there is a lowering of the level of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere and pollution in general.
Renovis is an Italian ESCO certified UNI CEI 11352 leader in the design and implementation of solutions for energy efficiency. The Renovis team is composed of qualified and experienced engineers, some of whom are specialized in the creation of projects aimed at industrial thermal saving.
Types of thermal saving
The main interventions implemented by Renovis concern the efficiency of existing plants, waste heat recovery, and the use of different forms of energy for heat recovery. The thermal saving strategy adopted is selected in collaboration between Renovis' engineers and the team that manages the plant. Our company, in fact, offers only customized solutions designed after careful inspections and tests in the customer's plant.
Energy efficiency solutions for existing systems
Many of the customers who turn to Renovis use outdated steam generators and boilers. By making these plants more energy efficient we can significantly improve combustion quality and thermal efficiency. There are two solutions to achieve these goals: replace the entire equipment of the plant or make changes to the installed boilers to increase efficiency.
Waste heat recovery
Another possible intervention that Renovis can carry out is the conversion of the so-called heat waste from discard into an energy source. The fuel used in the production plants, in fact, produces both a useful quota of energy and a quota of waste. The thermodynamic potential of the latter usually goes to waste, even though it can still be used in the plant. Renovis works to ensure that heat waste is recovered and studies solutions for its new integration into the production cycle, so as to reduce the customer's fuel costs.
Heat recovery on compressors
The latest type of intervention for thermal saving implemented by Renovis is based on heat recovery on compressors. Under normal circumstances, the energy consumed by an industrial compressor is transformed into heat during the compression phase and then dispersed; with the help of Renovis, however, a fraction of it can be recovered and reused to heat up rooms, production facilities and, in some cases, for heating the water used by the oil/water heat exchangers.
