10 YEARS OF ENERGYCONSERVATION PROGRAMMEIN AN EDBILE SALT REFINERY
Plant Operation Scenario
• Plant Capacity Utilization reduced from 87% to43%
• Specific Energy Consumption (Mega joules/MT)increased by 42%, mainly due to lower capacityutilization and fuel switch from liquid to solid.
• But for the Energy Conservation measures, thespecific energy consumption would have beenhigher by another 10% for the period.
Impact of Energy conservationProgram
• Maximum Demand Recorded, reducedfrom 435 KVA in 2001-02 to 246 KVA in2011-12; 43% reduction.
• Contract demand with Grid Powerreduced from 600 KVA to 380 KVAduring the corresponding period.
• MD quota was fixed at 315 KVA by GridPower Supplier in 2008 due to PowerShortage.
Impact of Energy conservationProgram
• Power Consumption norm was reduced from 33units/MT in 2001-02 (for 87% of Installedcapacity utilization) to 25 units/MT in 2011-12(for 43% of Installed capacity utilization);
• Specific Energy Cost (Rs/KJ) reduced by 21%mainly due to fuel switch from F.Oil to Biomass.
• Specific Energy Cost per Mt of Productionincreased only by 12% in spite of 42% increasein Specific Energy Consumption.

FY 2011-12Due to improvement in Input Raw Salt Quality, onewashing stage was eliminated and the equipmentswith total installed Motors of 30KW were removedfrom service.Electrically operated Forklift was introduced alongwith the existing Diesel Operated fork Lift toreduce the diesel Consumption. Investment Rs.4lakhsEnergy Audit was carried out in October 2011 foridentifying the scope for further reduction inEnergy Consumption.Old Luminaires were replaced with new energyefficent luminaires
Further Potentials for energyreduction
Soft starters for Crusher motors.Compressor Optimization.Use of Lower height thickener.Wood Gasification Plant for Hot Air generation (underevaluation)Use of Radio Frequency Drying ( under evaluation)Motor rationalization and power factor improvement ofRaw Salt Unloading equipments.Reduction of Wood Consumption.
