<strong>3D</strong> TRASAR Boiler <strong>Technology</strong> is used by leading<br />
corpor<strong>at</strong>ions around the world to secure improvements<br />
in their environmental and economic per<strong>for</strong>mance,<br />
optimise boiler efficiency, meet sustainability<br />
goals, specifically in the areas of w<strong>at</strong>er and energy<br />
use reduction, and to protect assets, a key driver in<br />
boiler management and steam gener<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />
<strong>3D</strong> TRASAR Boiler <strong>Technology</strong> also meets the requirements<br />
of the Best Available Techniques<br />
<strong>for</strong> energy efficiency under the EU Integr<strong>at</strong>ed<br />
Pollution Prevention & Control (IPPC) legisl<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
in the c<strong>at</strong>egories of increasing overall energy<br />
efficiency, reducing w<strong>at</strong>er use, reducing emissions<br />
to air, and reducing emissions to w<strong>at</strong>er.<br />
Results<br />
The implement<strong>at</strong>ion of <strong>3D</strong> TRASAR Boiler<br />
<strong>Technology</strong> delivered immedi<strong>at</strong>e improvements<br />
in boiler reliability and availability, detecting any<br />
upset conditions due to process contamin<strong>at</strong>ion in<br />
real-time, and prompting immedi<strong>at</strong>e corrective<br />
action in order to maintain steam production.<br />
This allowed maximis<strong>at</strong>ion of the volume of return<br />
condens<strong>at</strong>e, and minimis<strong>at</strong>ion of the volume of<br />
feedw<strong>at</strong>er tre<strong>at</strong>ment required. Overall this improved<br />
the sustainability per<strong>for</strong>mance of the plant by<br />
conserving precious w<strong>at</strong>er and energy resources,<br />
and reducing the associ<strong>at</strong>ed greenhouse gas<br />
emissions. This also led to continuity of pulp<br />
production, electricity gener<strong>at</strong>ion, a lower total<br />
cost of oper<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>for</strong> the asset.<br />
Conclusions<br />
<strong>3D</strong> TRASAR Boiler <strong>Technology</strong> proved to be<br />
a valuable diagnostic and management tool<br />
delivering desired levels of boiler reliability. Moreover<br />
the technology allowed the plant to oper<strong>at</strong>e<br />
safely and efficiently meeting production demand<br />
whilst assuring and improving sustainability per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />
<strong>3D</strong> TRASAR Boiler <strong>Technology</strong> offers<br />
real-time control, protecting the environment, plant<br />
profitability, and productivity.<br />
