Reduce electricity consumption
A key to more sustainability while reducing costs at the same time.
With our solutions, you can produce more sustainably and at lower costs.
At the same time, you achieve the same or even better product quality.
Why should you think about it?
The electricity consumption for drives, vacuum supply and other motors is considerable.
- Vacuum sources such as fans, pumps or blowers are major consumers of electrical energy.
- Vacuum is very often not on the radar of paper manufacturers - "it's just there".
- Vacuum and friction are the drivers that influence the amount of drive power required.
How can we support you in this?
With our know-how, products and solutions, we can help you to reduce electricity consumption as follows - and all while maintaining or even improving product quality:
- Optimization of vacuum demand and adaptation to production requirements.
- Optimization of the vacuum curve over the entire wire section.
- Use of automatic valves for reproducibility.
- Re-engineering of the pipelines.
- Reduction of vacuum consumers and therefore vacuum sources.
- Reduction of needed drive power, e.g. through
- Replacement of outdated dewatering systems with modern technology.
- Optimization of dewatering foils and covers with regard to current production conditions (design, material, servicing).
Success Stories
Below you will find a selection of successfully implemented projects.
All projects presented…
- ... show that it is possible to save resources while reducing production cost.
- ... achieved consistent or even improved product quality.
- ... have a return on investment of a few months only taking into account the overall added value achieved.
- ... have been implemented many times - no prototypes or trial installations.
Vacuum pump saved, power consumption reduced.
Savings for project implemented by IBS PPG: € 260.000 per year
TARGETS ACHIEVED
- Reduced power consumption for vacuum supply due to lower vacuum heights.
- This eliminates the need for a 250 kW vacuum pump including necessary maintenance, spare parts, etc..
- Same or even improved product quality.
- Return on investment within a few months.
Power consumption reduced by ultra-high pressure cleaning systems.
Savings for project implemented by IBS PPG: € 80.000 per year
TARGETS ACHIEVED
- Elimination of 180 kW vacuum supply for wire cleaning suction system.
- This results in electricity savings of 1.44 GWh per year.
- Same or even improved product quality.
- Return on investment within a few months.
Drive power and vacuum requirement significantly reduced.
Savings for project implemented by IBS PPG: € 420.000 per year
TARGETS ACHIEVED
- Optimization of dewatering elements (boxes, foils, covers).
- Optimization of vacuum curve over entire wire section.
- Increased dewatering performance by 7%.
- Reduction of total vacuum requirement by 12%.
- Reduction in drive power by 8%.
- Same or even improved product quality.
- Return on investment within a few months.
