AERATION AIR FLOW MEASUREMENT IN ONE OF THE LEADING PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES, INDIA



APPLICATION

Aeration air flow rate monitoring for control of Dissolved Oxygen levels in Effluent primary treatment plant.

CUSTOMER

India’s biggest Pharmaceutical drugs manufacturing group, Gujarat.

PROBLEM

An Integrated pharmaceutical plant with various departments such as API bulk drugs, tablets, liquid syrup manufacturing facility has a variable load of effluent water with a wide range of toxic organic and inorganic effluent into the effluent treatment plant for processing. 

This poses a challenge to maintain DO levels with respect to aeration air injection for BOD,COD & TOC control as per regulatory norms for resuage. Air Blowers are operated on a fixed pressure control loop which creates a problem on inefficient DO controls. DO is a function of air flow not pressure. 

Efficient Dissolved Oxygen ( DO) control is a challenge to obtain without accurate aeration air flow metering. Ineffective DO control means loss of energy and insufficient bacterial growth for optimum BOD levels.

SOLUTION

Leomi – 586 Insertion Thermal Mass flowmeter
  1. Doesn’t require a shutdown for installation
  2. High turndown down ratio of 100:1
  3. No pressure drop against the existing flow meter installed saves energy cost
  4. Allows leakage detection with better accuracy
  5. No maintenance than the existing flow meter used.

PRODUCT



INSTALLATION FACTS

Leomi 586 is installed in the main branch of the Aeration air from Roots Blowers on 12” (DN300) pipe with 1400 Nm3/hr flow rate working for 5 years satisfactorily. Customers have repeated orders for their new projects last year 2021.

WHY LEOMI?

  1. An ISO 9001:2015 company, Startup India recognized
  2. German technical collaboration Engineered in India
  3. India’s First In-house fully automatic wind tunnel calibration system
  4. Product quality proven for more than 20 years installed worldwide.

ADVANCEMENT IN AIR & PROCESS GAS FLOW MONITORING IN CEMENT PLANTS FOR PROCESS OPTIMIZATION

Image
Cement Industry is one of the crucial core sectors for the development of construction and infrastructure with currently approx. 4.4 billion Tonnes of cement was produced in the world in the year 2021. The largest cement producer is China with more than 55% capacity and thereafter India accounts for the second largest product with around 7% of capacity. After the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a sudden rise in demand from rural and urban infrastructural developments across the world and mostly in undeveloped countries. Initiatives such as the Smart City project by India will see a long-term demand for cement products which will see huge technological upgradation of existing cement plants for cost and energy optimization. The cement industry is one of the most intensive energy consumers in the industrial sectors. Energy consumption represents 40% to 60% of production costs. Additionally, the cement industry contributes around 5% to 8% of all man-made CO2 emissions. Due to increasing deman

  One of the essential foundational industries for the growth of infrastructure and building is the cement industry; in 2021, the globe produced about 4.4 billion tons of cement. China is the world’s largest cement producer, with over 55% of the global capacity; India comes in second, with over 7% of the global capacity. Following the COVID-19 epidemic, there was an abrupt increase in demand for both urban and rural infrastructure expansions worldwide, primarily in developing nations. Long-term demand for cement products will result from initiatives like India’s Smart City project, which will push current cement plants to greatly upgrade their technological capabilities in order to optimize energy and cost. Among all industrial sectors, the cement industry is one of the ones that uses the most energy. Between 40% and 60% of industrial expenses are attributed to energy use. In addition, the cement sector accounts for 5% to 8% of global emissions of CO2 produced by humans. Today’s cement
