Energy Saving Opportunities in Pumps and Compressors

Abstract

The economic growth and technological advancement of every nation depends on energy conservation. Energy conservation is a viable tool to promote economic efficiency. The commercial energy consumption percentage rose sevenfold during last four decades in India. Industrial sector consumes around 40% of the total energy in India. Among all the types of energy consuming equipments used in industries, pumps and compressors are selected for this study as these equipments are energy intensive and consume around 30% of the total energy. The main aim of this study is to identify energy saving opportunities in pumps and compressors by energy performance assessment to enhance their energy efficiency. This paper represents the various ways which are suggested to conserve as much as energy in case of pumps and compressors. Keywords-- Energy conservation, Energy efficiency, Energy audit of pumps, Energy audit of compressors, Energy savings, Energy conservation opportunities.
