| Summary: | Presently
, many factories in the wo
rld
are applying
the energy
audit
to
maximize
the profit that they would g
et
.
T
he ceramic manufacturing
industries are
an energy
-
intensive industry.
This report discussed how energy audit can reduce
the
energy
cost in the local ceramic
industry. The focus
is on the Sarawak ceramic
manufacturing industry.
The ceramic industry consumes much energy. The ceramic industry also
noted for great percentage of the energy cost in a total production cost. In the
ceramic industry, appreciable amount of energy could be
saved or conserved by
preventing of leakage in the dryer
and
modifying the equipment to recover heat
from the dryer in the process of ceramic
-
drying. Thus, energy audit are
conducted by using heat balance technique to know where the leakage and
product m
uch heat loss
The result shows that much energy loss from two main areas, exhausted
gas and from conduction and radiation.
In real condition, mostly heat loss created
by waste heat. Due to insufficient data this matter have to be neglected but
improvemen
t can be made by using one type of heat recovery system (HRS)
namely counter
-
flow recuperative heat exchanger (CRHE). |
