WHY IS ENERGY IMPORTANT IN COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEMS ?  From operating cost point of view : compressor room is one of the largest electricity user therefore is priority equipment 15 to 20% of total Power Plant electrical consumption in Compressed Air System (CAS)  Energy is up to 80% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost and 99% of its carbon footprint Maintenance 80% Energy Investment installation For a power plant of 800MW X 3, by reducing 5% in CAS Power Consumption Savings can be 500,000 KWH every year 9

Typical Thermal Power Plant Service Air Flue gas desulphurization 8 bar (real demand 5~6 Low pressure bar) Oil Free Air; No Air Dryer 100% Variable demand Stable demand of Air required Coal handling Oil Free Air plants Dust suppression systems Instrument Air Pneumatic Conveying Air 8 bar (real demand 6~7 bar) Low presure 50% stable demand ; 50% Variable Oil Free Air; No Air Dryer Oil Free Air ; - 40C ADP Stable demand of Ar required 10

THE ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM All energy used to compress air is transformed into heat, usually lost from the system. Laws of thermodynamics  the compression elements  the oil cooler  the intercooler  and the aftercooler The unique built-in energy recovery system of the Atlas Copco Z compressor circulates water through all these components to maximize the potential heat recovery and yields hot water at up to 90°C. Recovers Energy up to 90% 17

THE ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM 18

ADVANCEMENT IN MULTIPLE COMP. CONTROL - ES Multiple compressor installations are best controlled through a central controller This controller not only sequences the compressors and lowers the pressure band but has a possibility of starting and stopping different capacity machines to get the most efficient compressed air system 19

ENERGY EFFICIENT INNOVATIVE SOLUTION Central controller  Main innovative solutions: Oil-free Screw FS 0% losses adsorption dryer  Hybrid Screw technology  Oil-free Screw Fixed speed for the base load  Oil-free Screw Variable speed for variable Load  Heat-of-compression Dryers with 0 power & 0% losses Oil-free Screw FS 0% losses adsorption dryer  Energy Saving Central control system  Remote Monitoring through Smartlink  Energy Recovery system Energy 0% losses adsorption dryer Oil-free Screw FS Oil-free screw VSD Recovery

MAXIMUM SAVINGS POSSIBLE  Compressed Air usually represents 15% of a typical Thermal Power Plant’s electricity consumption  Energy Savings possible for a 800MW X 3 plant every year : – Installing Hybrid Screw compressors : Oil Free Screw FS + Oil Free Screw VSD : 10,87,500 KWH – Energy Recovery from Oil Free Screw compressors : 83,52,000 KWH – Central Controllers for optimum pressure generation : 3,88,000 KWH – Screw Blowers for ETP/WTP : 1,41,000 KWH – Air Leakage fixing : To be Assessed Total Savings : 99,68,500 KWH per Year 21
