A pharmaceutical formulation unit in North India

- Low condensate recovery (65%) due to inefficient electrical based system

- Low feed water temperature (70°C) due to venting of flash steam and condensate being pumped at a temperature of 70°C

- Safety hazard due to local flash steam

- Frequent overflow of condensate, increasing effluent load on the ETP

To recover condensate and bring down energy costs in the plant

Condensate recovery system comprising of FLASHJET^TM pump and condensate recovery meter (CRM)

- Achieved and sustained condensate recovery factor of 95%

- Reduction in make-up water consumption, resulting in 3 water savings of 9000 m /yr

- 100% flash steam recovered to hot water system resulting in reduction of steam

- Increase in feed water temperature by ~25^OC; feedwater temperature maintained at 94^O C

- ~4% savings in the annual fuel bill Reduced CO2 emissions ~1150 TPA
