Beschreibung
This book offers a guide to saving energy in industry, demonstrating how energy efficiency can be achieved in existing systems or as part of a new design. Backed up with real-world examples, it enables readers to successfully manage and save energy in their own enterprises. The authors provide information on measurement techniques and instruments as well as on how to assess and present the methods that can be used for savings and improvements, and how to calculate the required investment and repayment periods. The book covers issues such as:- decreasing unit production costs, which depend on the lowering energy costs;- competence and good quality energy use;- fulfilling market opportunities to protect competitive conditions;- conservation of the environment; and- increasing the lifetime of a system. Including sample implementation studies and their results, especially in intensive energy consumption areas, the book explains how to design energy systems effectively in terms of increasing energy efficiency and savings. This book is an ideal resource for industrial practitioners, engineers, researchers and academics in the field of energy savings and energy efficiency. It is also of use to employees and investors concerned with energy management.
