For example, if the existing steam
boilers will require the addition of
NOx-removal equipment, electrification
may provide an opportunity
to build new, smaller, more efficient
and more reliable steam boilers for
not much more than the regulatory
revamp cost. Similarly, if there
are steam-boiler reliability upgrade
projects planned, decreasing steam
consumption instead of implementing
a boiler replacement or reliability
upgrade project may be a
better option.
To find the best project for the
facility,
start with high-level goals,
develop a good understanding of
the existing systems, and compare
options while understanding which
parts are independent that can be
evaluated individually and which
parts are interrelated and need to be
considered as a group.
Clearly, both benefits and costs
must be understood.
The potential benefits include:
* Reduction in operating cost
* Improvement in energy efficiency
* Reduction in emissions
Associated costs include:
* Capital cost to implement
changes
* System upgrades required (both
within the facility and by third-party
suppliers)
* Process inside battery limit (ISBL)
and outside battery limit (OSBL) impacts,
both positive and negative,
for each option
Finally, note that it does not help
if a preliminary study makes an option
look promising, but impacts that
were not initially considered make
the option much more expensive
or impractical.
