Excerpt from Saving Steam in Industrial Heating Systems A source of easily preventable loss incurred. By many factories is that of the use of live steam for heating and for other purposes where exhaust steam would be at least as satisfactory. The manner in which the exhaust-steam problem is handled constitutes the greatest single determining factor in the economy of a steam plant.

This was my first book and a true labor of love. I spent decades studying steam and the work of Dead Men, in both old buildings and on library shelves. I traveled the country, haunting used-book stores, looking for engineering books that held the answers to questions that nagged at me. I was obsessed with this topic, and when I finally sat to write, I poured all that I had learned into this book, and as I wrote, I tried my best to make the words sound good to you - like we were together and having a conversation. I wanted you to know what I know and I wanted you to be able to do what I can do when it comes to old steam systems. This book arrived in 1992 and has since gone though dozens of printings. We've sold it in every state as well as in foreign countries. Steam heat is everywhere there are old buildings, so why shouldn't you be the one with the answers? Dan Holohan

Steam systems are a part of almost every major industrial process today. Thirty-seven percent of the fossil fuel burned in US industry is burned to produce steam. In this paper we will establish baseline energy consumption for steam systems. Based on a detailed analysis of boiler energy use we estimate current energy use in boilers in U.S. industry at 6.1 Quads (6.4 EJ), emitting almost 66 MtC in CO2 emissions. We will discuss fuels used and boiler size distribution. We also describe potential savings measures, and estimate the economic energy savings potential in U.S. industry (i.e. having payback period of 3 years or less). We estimate the nationwide economic potential, based on the evaluation of 16 individual measures in steam generation and distribution. The analysis excludes the efficient use of steam and increased heat recovery. Based on the analysis we estimate the economic potential at 18-20% of total boiler energy use, resulting in energy savings approximately 1120-1190 TBtu (1180-1260 PJ). This results in a reduction of CO2 emissions equivalent to 12-13 MtC.

Here is your complete guide to the systems and equipment used for producing electrical power, steam, and utility functions such as heating, refrigeration, ventilation, and water for industrial facilities. The full scope of the various types of boiler plants, turbines, pumps, and cogenerating systems are examined, including design considerations, as well as optimum application of auxiliary equipment. The critical and sometimes competing factors which contribute to the overall success of an installation, such as energy efficiency, solid and gas emissions, overall cost effectiveness and performance, convenience of operation, and safety are put into clear perspective. Energy conservation measures specific to the steam plant including heat recovery, as well as overall plant energy management, are fully explored.
