The desired management of the amount of thermal energy in the plant, every day, becomes more relevant in the operation, given that it impacts on the variable operating costs, as well as the carbon footprint of the product and the company. For this reason, any type of industry, such as CPG, chemical, Oil and Gas, Pharmaceuticals, among others, has become a key KPI in production, which is why companies are interested in knowing the specific amount of energy that their raw materials use at the right time, providing this information to the person. appropriate, to make appropriate decisions.
The application presented has the calculation of the material balance for three types of energy sources, named as follows:
- LP, Low Pressure,
- MP, Medium Pressure,
- HP, High Pressure,
And each of them is evaluated against a flow of:
1000 Kg/h, 5000 Kg/h and 10,000 Kg/h, to have an instantaneous energy balance.
