Promotion of Energy Conservation Techniques in Textile Processing Industry: A Case Study

The importance of energy conservation awareness at home is relatively easy to understand, but its thoroughimplementation is usually delayed in the early stages of energy conservation awareness programs in factory.Therefore, for concrete implementation, it is desirable to develop company-wide coordination measures similarto QC activities in factories. In addition, in order to promote energy-saving measures efficiently, we haveidentified key areas in which common Energy Savings are achieved through our Experience in Energy Auditingof about 100+ Textile Process house in South Gujarat Region.Energy conservation is a significant step to overcoming the vital problem of the worldwide energy crisis. Inparticular, Sub continent countries i.e. India are interested to increase their awareness on the inefficient powergeneration and energy usage in their country. However, Data of energy use are limited for proper execution ofenergy conservation.In developing countries energy saving and conservation technologies should be spread to all governments'organization as well as industrial owners and technocrats. It is essential that they gain practical knowledge ofthe presently available energy conservation technologies.Due to high energy intensive industry i.e. textile sector, it is recommended to implements energy conservationtechnologies using modern energy saving techniques. For example regulating the temperature in the steampipes, adjusting the air/fuel ratio in the boilers, and installing heat exchangers using warm waste water.There are several ways to conserve or save energy in textile sector out of which most common suggestions in ourEnergy Audit will discussed in this paper.
