Set the boundary first. Collect site evidence before selecting a measure or reporting a result.
Define the campaign, product and process route. Separate extraction, evaporation, crystallisation, drying and utilities.
Feed and product solids, evaporation duty, steam levels, condensate, fuels, electricity, campaign hours and off-campaign operation.
Use measured surface area, temperature and operating hours to calculate heat loss from boilers, kilns, heat exchangers, valves and pipework. Inzonex supplies removable modular insulation for equipment that requires maintenance access.
Do not add a calculated reduction to an emissions report until the reporting boundary, factor, implementation date and verification method have been approved.
Assess measures against the complete steam balance and campaign availability. Record interactions between vapour reuse and power generation.
Review evaporator and pan services, steam and condensate headers, valves and accessible hot equipment before the campaign.
