Cleaner Production practices
1. Good housekeeping
take appropriate managerial and
operational actions to prevent:
- leaks
- spills
- to enforce existing operational instructions
Example
Example
25% of total length of pipes for hot water distribution were not well insulated
Reduction of coal by 6,000 tons and CO2 by 11,200 tons
Investment: 155,000 EURSavings: 125,000 EURPayback period: 1.2 years
Cleaner Production practices
2. Input substitution
substitute input materials
- by less toxic
- or by renewable materials
- or by adjunct materials which have a longer service life-time in production

Large expenses and air emissions due to usage of the heavy oil for firing of the boiler as well as for support in lignite combustion
Replacement of heavy oil with the light fuel or gas
- Demi water35,000 m3/y x 2 units =70,000 m3/year- 10,000 tons of coal x 2 unit = 20,000 tons of coal/year- 950 MWh/per year (2 motors for HO pumps and 2 for demi water - each 30 kw)-Reduced quantity of sulphur in flue gases Reduction of 14600 t of CO2 /per year
Increasing costs of fuel prices1.15 million € / year
Savings on the production of demineralised water for heating fuel oil 280,000 EUR- Savings in electricity consumption 38,000 EUR- Savings on coal 240,000 EUR- Savingsdue to increase the total unit of 0.5%, due to the lack of contamination of the boiler 4.8 million EUR x 2 units
Cleaner Production practices
3. Better process control
modify:
- operational procedures
- equipment instructions
and process record keeping in order to run the processes more efficiently and at lower waste and emission generation rates
Example
Installation of gas and electricity meters/ Installation of computer-based monitoring program
By continuous monitoring and recording of consumption of the main water and energy consumers (boiler, makeup water for chillers, hot water generation, slaughterhouses, meat processing, trucks cleaning, temporary houses), monitoring production related specific indicators, and training of operators, it is assessed the company could reduce energy and water consumption by 5 - 10%.
Comparing to current consumption of 500.000 m3 of water, 4,317,598 m3 of gas and
27,879 MWh of electricity it could bring savings up to 50,000 m3/year of water, 215,000 m3 of gas and 1.35 GWh of electricity.
This leads to reduction of CO2 by 920 t.
Investment: 60,000 EUR (total cost) Savings: 236,000 EUR (188,000 for energy and 48,000 for water) Payback period: 3 months
Cleaner Production practices
4. Equipment modification
modify the existing production equipment and utilities in order:
- run the processes at higher efficiency
- lower waste and emission generation rates
Example
Even while the project was still ongoing, the company started to implement some of the cleaner production options:
exhausted capacitor batteries were replaced, the return of investment of 5,400 EUR was 9 months
the process of purchasing an industrial suction dust remover in order to replace the current practice of cleaning with compressed air was initiated, 9,000 kWh electricity was reduced
One of the cleaner production options is installation of the system for automatic boiler desludging. It is estimated that annual consumption of steam amounts to 5,700 tons. Losses in steam consumption caused by manual desludging stand at around 15%, while automatic desludging would reduce these losses to 3-5%. This would lead to gas savings of 12,000 m3 per year. Investment 12,000 EUR; estimated savings 4,300 EUR
Example
Condensate from the two heating substations has been discharged into the sewer system. Measurements of the discharged condensate quantities have shown that resulting heat loss, expressed in terms of fuel consumed, is equivalent to heavy oil consumption of 21 t over the heating period. A carried out reconstruction has provided for a condensate, which has been discharged from the system for years, to be returned into the process (collector and a pump for condensate transport).
Apart from the expected financial benefits resulting from reduced heavy oil consumption of 21 t/a, described measure has also contributed to environmental improvements observed through annual reduction of CO2 emission equal to 68 t/a.

5. Technology change
replacement of:
- the technology
- processing sequence
- synthesis pathway
in order to minimise waste and emission generation during production
Case Study - Petrohemija
Since the beginning of the cleaner production project in 2010 till today, the company HIP Petrohemija has invested more than 9 million € in various
cleaner production options, which resulted in reduction of consumption of gas by around 520,000 m3 per year, of water by 30,000 m3 per year, and of chemicals in substantial amounts. Some of the implemented measures are primarily related to pollution prevention, and they considerably contribute to
the reduction of negative impact on the environment and human health.
For instance, in the Ethylene Factory, by investing only 1,000 € and changing the type of steam used for flushing of pyrolytic furnaces, the savings of around 120,000 € were achieved, i.e. the consumption of feeding boiler water was reduced by around 30.000 t per year, and the consumption of chemicals was reduced by around 20-30 t per year.
For instance, in the Ethylene Factory, by investing only 1,000 € and changing the type of steam used for flushing of pyrolytic furnaces, the savings of around 120,000 € were achieved, i.e. the consumption of feeding boiler water was reduced by around 30.000 t per year, and the consumption of chemicals was reduced by around 20-30 t per year.
Case Study - Petrohemija
There are several pumps in the Ethylene Factory that use water steam, but that can use electricity as their energy source (one pump has a turbine, the other has an
electric engine). These pumps switched to the use of electricity, which is not only cheaper than water steam, but it also reduces the consumption of fossil fuels, thus
reducing pollution.
The largest investment, of around 7.5 million €, was completed last year, with the reconstruction of the HDPE Factory. This has a multiple environmental impact, by
reducing emissions, reducing the consumption of isobutene by about 100 t per year, reducing the generation of waste catalyst in the amount of 1,500 kg per year, and
reducing the consumption of gas for activation furnace by around 30%.
Good housekeeping measures such as insulation of pipelines, valves and flanges, replacement of malfunctioning condensate separators, condensate return, or repairs
of water steam leakage have resulted in savings of around 180,000 € with a return period of around 4 months.
