Identifying losses in transport is one of the main challenges for the Energy Plant Department that is responsible for the generation of steam used within the process and for heating purposes.

The results

  • Accurate, consolidated data on steam output, transport and consumption

  • Controlled steam consumption via precise metering of each consumer

  • Measured transport efficiency and allocated losses in the steam pipe network

  • Customized reports for management review

ArcelorMittal Zenica management is now able to make the right decisions to reduce energy costs.

With the solution and services provided, ArcelorMittal Zenica management is now able to make the right decisions to reduce energy costs.

The challenge

Although steam consumption is very important to the profitability of the company, consumption by the different internal customers was only calculated according to empirical standards. As prerequisite for any efficiency gain actions, the Energy Plant Department needed to:

  • Monitor steam production and consumption in real time

  • Have meaningful data centrally available

Our solution

We integrated a turnkey steam monitoring solution into the company’s existing energy monitoring system. The solution includes:

  • Instrumentation and energy application managers

  • Data acquisition and visualization

  • Mechanical installation

Furthermore we also performed all the associated services that were required.

Solution components

  • Instrumentation: 39 steam measurement systems (Prowirl 72F vortex flowmeter + TR15 temperature sensor + Cerabar PMP51 pressure transmitter with syphon and shut-off valves)

  • Energy application managers: EngyCal RS33 including cabinets, cables and required system components

  • Data acquisition and visualization: P View software, OPC server and workstation PC Mechanical installation: flanges and reducer pipe works, insulation
