High S/P ratio: LEDs have higher scotopic/photopic ratio (S/P ratio).
The eye has two primary light sensing cells called rods and cones
cones function in day light and process visual information whereas rods
function in night light. The cone dominated vision is called photopic
and the rod dominated vision is called scotopic. The S/P ratio indicates
the measure of light that excites rods compared to the light that
excites cones. In office environments, illumination is more effective if
the S/P ratio is high as it is under scotopic region. LEDs hence are
ideally suited for these applications as they have a high S/P ratio.
Longer life time: LEDs have longer life time of around 1,00,000
hours. This is equivalent to 11years of continuous operation or 22
years of 50% operation.
Confederation of Indian Industry
Recommendation
It is recommended to replace the existing 174 nos. of 1X36 W and 316
nos. of 2X36W T8 lamps with 1X20 W LEDs. The energy saving that can
be achieved by replacing the T8 lamps with LEDs is around 19 kW.
Benefits
The estimated annual savings that can be obtained by replacing T8 lamps
with LEDs is Rs. 5.83 lakhs. The investment required is Rs. 9.80 lakhs.
The payback period is 20 months.

the preset voltage value (the reference value with which feedback is
compared).
The disadvantages of operating the lamps with higher voltages are:
Increase in power consumption of the lamp
Reduction in life of lamp
The optimum voltage for lighting should be in the range of 210-220 V and
is being implemented by many plants. The advantages of reducing the
supply voltage from the present 239 V to 220 V are as follows:
Reduction in power consumption (1% reduction in voltage results in
1% reduction in power, as power is directly proportional to voltage)
Life span of lamps is maintained as specified by the manufacturer
There is no significant drop in the lux levels.

The cooling tower pump supplies water from the hot well to the cooling
tower. It was observed that 4 % of water was being re-circulated back
into the hot well at the outlet of the pump. The remaining water was
supplied to the cooling tower with the pipeline being throttled to a 60%
open position.
This process pump supplies water from the cooling tower to the plant.
The following are the measured operating values of the cooling water
pump:
Operating flow
: 32.6 m3/hr
Operating head
: 12 m
Operating power
: 5.37 kW
It was also observed that only 16 m 3/hr water was being pumped to the
plant by the process pump and the excess 14.7 m 3/hr (45 % of the water
being pumped) water is being re-circulated back to the hot well. This
shows that the water supplied to the cooling tower is more than that of
the water supplied to the plant.
Based on the above parameters, the efficiency of the water pump is
estimated as 22%, which is low. The lower operating efficiency of the
pump can be due to the following reasons.
Mismatch between design head and operating head
Low efficiency by design
At present new pumps are available with efficiencies in the range of 70%
to 75%. Hence, there is a good potential here to reduce the water flow to
the cooling tower and reduce the specific energy consumption
Recommendation
We recommend the following:
Step - 1
Trim the Impeller of the pump by 10 percent to reduce the flow output
of the pump
Due to the impeller trimming:
The flow is reduced by 8.5 m3/hr
Head is reduced by 2.5 m
Power consumed by the pump will be reduced by 2.2 kW
Step - 2
Install correct size pump with an operating efficiency more than 70%.
Contact the supplier and select a Cooling Tower pump which is
designed to run at the required operating parameters.
The recommended specifications of the new pump can be as follows:
Volumetric Flow
: 20m3/hr
Head
: 12 m
Efficiency
: >70%
Step - 2
Installing a correct size energy efficient pump would result in an annual
energy savings of Rs. 2.21 Lakhs. This requires an investment of Rs.
0.8 Lakhs for the new high energy efficient cooling tower pump with a
simple payback period of 5 months.

Present Status
During the course of detailed energy audit of J K Fenner (India) Ltd.,
Patancheru, a detailed study of all the cooling water supply systems was
done for possible energy saving potential.
It was observed that the cooling return water from the process is
collected into a return water sump. The water from this sump is being
pumped to the hot well of the cooling tower. This pump operates in closed
loop with the return water sump level sensor and also plant team reduced
the diameter of the impeller. CII Godrej GBC congratulates the plant
team for this excellent energy conservation initiative.
This process is represented with the help of the following diagram:
19.76 m3/hr

10 m
: 65 m3/hr
Design head
: 35 m
Design power
: 11 kW
: 19.76 m3/hr
Operating head
: 15 m
Operating power
: 6.81 kW
Efficiency
: 13%
It is observed that the design head and capacity of the pump is much
higher than the actual requirement. Due to the deviation in the design
and operating parameters, the best efficiency point shifted to the lowest
efficiency zone.
Thus there is good potential to reduce the power consumption of the
return water pump by installing new high energy efficient pump.
Recommendation
We recommend the following:
Install correct size pump with a design efficiency of more than 70%.
Specification of the new high energy efficient pump are:
o Volumetric Flow
: 20 m3/hr
o Head
: 15 m
o Efficiency
: >70%

After the water gets chilled, it gets collected into the cold well. The
temperature of the chilled water coming out from the chiller is 17.1 0C. It
was observed that the hot well and cold well were connected internally to
facilitate the overflow of water in the wells. Because the amount of water
being supplied by the hot well pump is more than the cold water pumped
to the process, the chilled water in the cold well is getting mixed with the
hot water. This resulted in chilled water temperature rise to 18 0C.
The process pump then supplies the chilled water from the cold well to
the process equipments at 18 0C.
This indicates that the chilled water temperature requirement is 18 0C
instead of that we are producing chilled water at 17.1 0C. Thus there is
good potential to reduce the power consumption of the compressor by
increasing the set point by 1 0C.
Increase in set point should be done only after converting two well system
to single well system. So that mixing of hot water and cold water will be
completely avoided.

In this proposed system, the return water from the process accumulates
in the hot well. From the hot well, the new VFD operated hotwell pump
will supply water to the chiller and then to the process. This new hotwell
pump will operate in closed loop with the pumps discharge pressure and
optimum flow throughout the process will be maintained.
Thus there is good potential to reduce the power consumption of the
complete chilling system by converting to single well system.
Recommendation
We recommend the following:
Replace the existing Hot well/Coldwell system with single well system
Install a single high capacity and high energy efficient pump which
would supply chiller water to the end users through the chilling unit
This high capacity energy efficient pump will have lesser fixed energy
losses than a two pump system. The higher design efficiency of the
new pump will also reduce the overall pumping power consumptio n.

The measured excess air % during the low flame scenario is 111%. The
FD fan power consumption is high due to higher air supply during the low
flame scenario. A huge amount of energy is lost due to the operation of
the boiler with excess air. The heat generated by the boiler is partly lost to
the excess air, resulting in an increase in fuel consumption to generate
the same amount of steam.This leads to a drop in the efficiency of the
boiler.
Thus there is excellent potential to reduce fuel and power consumption by
installing VFD fitted energy efficient fan and operate in closed loop with
the O2 sensor.
Recommendation
We recommend the following:
Confederation of Indian Industry
Step 1:
Install an Online Flue gas Analyzer at the Boiler Outlet
Interlock the existing damper to maintain the O2% in the Boiler outlet

Install a new high energy efficient blower with VFD of the following
specification:

Ambient air:

The measured excess air % in the TFH is 111%. A huge amount of energy

by the TFH is partly lost to the excess air, resulting in an increase in fuel
consumption to transfer the same amount of heat to the thermic fluid .This
leads to a drop in the efficiency of the TFH.
There is excellent potential to reduce fuel and power consumption by
decreasing the combustion air flow to decrease the O2% in the TFH outlet.
Recommendation
We recommend the following:
Take trial by reducing the supply air quantity by closing the blower
damper
Decrease flow of blower to maintain the O2% of 2-4 % in TFH outlet
Benefits
The annual savings of Rs. 1.51 Lakhs can be achieved by implementing
this project. There is no investment required for this project.

0.05 - 0.09 TPH
The measured steam flow through the line was 0.09 TPH. This test was
carried out with the support of bucket test. This would translate to 6 % of
the total steam generation.
There is scope to reduce the idle steam consumption by stopping idle flow
of steam through the line. This can be done by installing a valve on the
line near the common Header.
Recommendation
We recommend the following:
Install a control valve in the line near the common Header and close
completely
Benefits
Annual savings of Rs. 10.45 Lakhs can be achieved by implementing this
project. The investment required is Rs. 3.00 Lakhs with a simple
payback period of 4 months.

Only one user HRC section is using 12 bar pressure steam. From the
discussions with the plant team, it was understood that the plant is
planning reduction in roller diameter to reduce required pressure to 7.5
bar. After this modification, the maximum pressure of steam required
would be 8 bar. Then there would be scope to go for a 10 bar boiler.
Recommendations
We recommend the following:
Install and operate Wood/Briquette fired Boiler instead of 3T Furnace
Oil Boiler
o 3 TPH, 85 % Efficiency
The savings were calculated for 3 TPH steam generation while the
actual generation is only 1.4-1.6 TPH.
Benefits
Annual savings of Rs. 20.44 Lakhs can be achieved by implementing this
project. The investment required for installing a wood fired boiler is
around Rs. 20.00 Lakhs. The simple payback period is 12 months.

From the discussions had with the plant team during the audit, we
understood that the pump 2 has to operate with wide range of pressures
due to the membrane condition. The operating pressure range varies from
7.0 kg/cm2 (fresh membrane) to 15 kg/cm2 (membrane in chocked
condition).
Due to this the pump was design for higher head for meeting the
maximum operating head. Due to this the pump 2 should operate with the
valve throttling to meet the requirement at a given point of time. Valve
throttling increases the pressure drop across the control valve. This
pressure drop intern increases the excess power consumption of the
pump 2.
It is also observed that there is 41% water recirculation back to the pump
2 inlet.
Thus there is good potential to reduce the power consumption of the
pump 2 by installing VFD and operating the pump 2 in closed loop with
the header pressure. With the support of VFD we can reduce recirculation.
Recommendation
Case 1: We recommend the following for Pump 1
Install correct size pump with a design efficiency of more than 60%.
The recommended specifications of the new pump are:
Confederation of Indian Industry

: 1.2 m3/hr
Head
: 3 bar
Efficiency
: >60%
: 1.2 m3/hr

Benefits
Case 1:
Installing a correct size energy efficient pump would result in an annual
energy savings of Rs. 0.27 Lakhs. This requires an investment of Rs.
1.0 Lakhs for the new high energy efficient pump with a simple payback
period of 44 months.
Case 2:
Installing a correct size energy efficient pump with a VFD would result in
an annual energy savings of Rs. 0.71 Lakhs. This requires an investment
of Rs. 2.0 Lakhs for the new high energy efficient pump along with a
VFD with a simple payback period of 34 months.
Total annual savings of Rs. 0.98 Lakhs can be achieved by implementing
this project. The investment required is around Rs. 3.00 Lakhs. The
simple payback period is 37 months.

Only one user HRC section is using 12 bar pressure steam. From the
discussions with the plant team, it was understood that the plant is
planning reduction in roller diameter to reduce required pressure to 7.5
bar. After this modification, the maximum pressure of steam required
would be 8 bar. Then there would be scope to go for a 10 bar solar steam
generator.
Recommendations
We recommend the following:
Install and operate Solar Steam Generator instead of 3T Furnace Oil
Boiler during day time
The Furnace oil boiler is to be operated in on/off mode with an
interlock to the Header pressure
Benefits
Annual savings of Rs. 93.5 Lakhs can be achieved by implementing this
project. The investment required for installing a solar steam generator is
around Rs. 800.00 Lakhs (Not Considering Govt. Subsidies). The simple
payback period is 8.6 years.
Recommendation
It is recommended to opt for renewable energy for street lighting. A 2 kW
capacity solar panel/ solar mill can be installed and the requirements of
street lighting can be met through renewable energy.
Benefits
The estimated annual savings that can be obtained by shifting to solar
powered street lighting is Rs. 0.50 lakhs. The investment required is Rs.
4.00 lakhs.
Observation:
After the implementation of the above two steps, the use of renewable
energy can be further expanded, as detailed in the step 3:
Step 3: It is recommended to use renewable energy to meet the entire
requirement of plants lighting load (which should be around 15 kW after
the implementation of Step 1 of the proposal). A 15 kW solar PV/ solar
mill can be installed to cater to the entire lighting load requirement. The
investment required is around Rs. 40 lakhs and annual savings achieved
is around Rs. 5 lakhs.

The J.K. Fenner (India) Limited, Patancheru team had already
done commendable jobs in Energy conservation. CII strongly feels
that Plant team should form an energy management committee
which involves senior persons from all departments and the
committee should continue the work and progress towards World
Class Energy Efficient Unit.
The main responsibility of implementing the proposals and
achievement of savings should be with the concerned operating and
maintenance personnel and not with the energy manager.
The immediate task of J.K. Fenner (India) Limited, Patancheru
should be to implement the identified proposals and get the
savings.
We would recommend, J.K. Fenner (India) Limited, Patancheru
to introduce a suggestion scheme for energy conservation. The
Confederation of Indian Industry
7.4
Monitoring Of Proposals
All the implemented proposals are to be monitored on a proposalby-proposal basis for actual achievement of savings on a monthly
basis.
7.5
Motivational Aspects
The successful management of energy depends on motivation of
technical personnel and their commitment. For this reason, J K
Fenner should carry out the following motivational aspects to
sustain energy conservation activities.
Send operating / Maintenance personnel for training programmes
in specific areas like
Fans & Blowers
Compressors
Heat Treatment system
Motors
Conduct in-house training programme on energy management.
Organise visits for executives to similar units to know the energy
conservation / process development, etc.
Present papers on energy conservation activities at the plant, in
other seminars.

It was observed that 4 % of water was being re-circulated back into the hot
well at the outlet of the cooling tower pump. The remaining water was supplied
to the cooling tower with the pipeline being throttled to a 60% open position.
It was also observed that only 16 m 3/hr water was being pumped to the plant
by the process pump and an excess 14.7 m 3/hr (45 % of the water being
pumped) water is being re-circulated back to the hot well. This shows that the
water supplied to the cooling tower is more than that of the water supplied to
the plant.

The measured excess air % during the low flame scenario is 111%. Some
quantity of excess air is required for ensuring complete combustion of any
fuel. But the norm for excess air % required for furnace oil fired boilers is
around 15 %. The heat generated by the boiler is partly lost to the excess air,
resulting in an increase in fuel consumption to generate the same amount of
steam. This leads to a drop in the efficiency of the boiler.

throttling, pressure drop across pump 2 due to valve throttling, 43% water
recirculation across pump 2, all of which led to consumption of excess power in
both the pumps.
