In many seasoned process manufacturing plants, the growing production capacity often leads to a mismatch with the available steam production capacity, creating significant inefficiencies. Additionally, the reliance on steam for both production processes and electricity generation can compound the issue, resulting in increased operational costs and energy waste.

To address these challenges, advanced solutions are needed to efficiently manage and optimize steam consumption. By analyzing the consumption patterns of various products and production processes, plants can identify areas of high steam usage and implement strategies to reduce waste. Additionally, leveraging AI-based tools helps plant personnel determine the most efficient sequence and duration for each product campaign, allowing for better control over steam usage. Optimizing steam consumption not only improves resource management but also enhances overall operational efficiency.
