Energy Pop Quiz-11 O “ i l” hi i i1. On a “typical” paper machine, energy consumption is
___% higher than on top performing machines.
2. Energy consumption can usually be reduced by ___% without capital expenditures.
3. What operating changes provide good opportunities for reducing energy use without capitalfor reducing energy use without capital expenditures?
Energy Pop Quiz-23 Wh i h id d i i3. What operating changes provide good opportunities
for reducing energy use without capital expenditures?p

Energy Pop Quiz-34 Whi h d i h l4. Which paper grade requires the least energy use per
ton? Fine Paperp Linerboard Corrugating Medium
Bleached Board Bleached Board Paperboard LWC Newsprint Tissue/Towel Kraft Paperp Fluff Pulp Market Pulp
Energy Pop Quiz-45. What country has the most fossil fuel
reserves?Answer-United States“The U. S. has more oil in the ground than all of the
Middle East put together.”-Forbes BrothersMiddle East put together. Forbes Brothers“According to Energy Department figures, almost 80%
of potentially oil-rich offshore sites are off-limits to drilling; 60% of onshore sites are inaccessible as g;well” Investors Business Daily 10/11/2010
New drilling techniques such as fracturing have greatly increased access to oil and natural gas.g
World Energy Demand isWorld Energy Demand is Increasing Energy demand is increasing rapidly in
emerging market countries and exceedsemerging market countries and exceeds 22 million barrels of oil per year.
China India Russia and the Middle China, India, Russia, and the Middle East combined consumed more crude oil than the U S for the first time inoil than the U. S. for the first time in 2008.

Reducing Energy Operating Costs
Papermaking is a complex process and each machine is unique. Improving energy efficiency requires careful evaluation of total paper machine operation.
Significant energy savings can be realized on most paper machines by monitoring and benchmarking energy consumption andbenchmarking energy consumption and implementing cost effective changes.
How Can Opportunities to Reduce E C ti PEnergy Consumption on Paper Machines be Identified? The U. S. Department of Energy (DOE)
funded development of a paper machine energy scorecard system.
The scorecard system Uses Excel spreadsheets to ask comprehensive
questions on paper machine components related to energy consumptionto energy consumption.
Compares each paper machine to energy performance on other machines producing similar grades.
Paper Machine Energy Scorecard System
Scorecards are based on TAPPI technical information papers.technical information papers. 0404-63-Paper Machine Energy

0404-47-Paper Machine Performance Guidelines
Other TAPPI TIPs

Five Basic Principles1. Minimize amount of water evaporated in the
dryers.2. Minimize amount of steam condensed
outside the dryersoutside the dryers.3. Maximize condensate return flow and
pressure to the power house.pressure to the power house.4. Minimize electrical consumption for key
users.5. Monitor and manage energy consumption
and cost.
