BP35 - Improve compressed air system
| Address: Nhon Trach District, Dong Nai Province | |
| Name of the Manager: Jordan Cheng | |
| Project Summary: In response to the energy efficiency program of Adidas brand, a textile and dyeing enterprise in Dong Nai Province has made improvements of the pneumatic system. The goal of the project is to reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. | |
| Year of implementation: 2018 | |
|
Status before implementation The factories used manual condensate drain valves, causing stagnant water to corrode pipes and joints and damage to the equipment using compressed air; If the drain time is too long, compressed air will be wasted, thereby increasing the power consumption of the air compressor. Manual drain valve in storage tanks The air compressor at the dyeing workshop had a pressure set at 6.5 - 7.5 bar, which was high compared to demand. The high pressure setting resulted in reduced compressor efficiency and increased compressed air loss through leak points.
|
Result The factory has invested and installed automatic condensate drain valve.
New condensate drain valve In addition, the factory has reduced the installed pressure of the dyeing mill air compressor to 5 - 6 bar. Savings rate reached about 12%. |
