ErkaMaX^® ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM

WHY ErkaMaX^®ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM?

-    ErkaMaX^® recovers 80-90 % of the waste energy.

-    The system provides the temperature of clean water used in the dyeing plant just 5-10˚C lower than waste water (75-80˚C compare to 20-22˚C in the average systems).

-    ErkaMaX^® via usage of the discharged energy heats cold water entering into the dyeing plant and provides you with ready hot water.

-    You may start using the ready hot water for the following procedures immediately:

In bleaching process

In dyeing process

In washing process

In rinsing prosess

And in a steam boiler.

Thus, the amount of the consumed fuel and waiting time in the heating process decrease.

ErkaMaX^®system provides saving up to 15-30 % of fuel in Textile Dyehouse.

Using ErkaMaX^®System, production capacity increases up to 10- 25 % ( if the dyeing machine doesn't have reserve tank).

HOW TO SAVE TIME AND MONEY

ErkaMaX^®ENERGY RECOVERY SYSTEM

A dyeing process consists of 3 phases:

1. Bleaching operation

2. Dyeing operation

3. Washing and rinsing operations

~ Approximately 6 to 12 steps.

Most of these processes ( 50-70 %) require hot water usage and hot discharge.

An ambient water temperature needed for each of the hot processes is heated by steam up to the necessary degree.

For example:

Let's suppose that we need 85 ˚C temperature in any given part of the dyeing process.

The water in an approximate room temperature of 20 ˚C is taken and heated up to 85 ˚C. Considering that the water heating speed of a dyeing machine is 3-4 ˚C per minute, the waiting period will be (85-20)/3 = 22 minutes.

If ErkaMaX^®Energy Recovery System is used and if we consider that the discharge temperature is 85 ˚C, it drops down to through loss of energy.

ErkaMaX^®Energy Recovery System will provide you with 75 ˚C hot water through usage of the 85 ˚C (80 ˚C) waste water.

In this way, the waiting period will be dropped down to (85 -75)/3 = 3 minutes .

It's clear how much energy could be saved / recovered if we calculate the amount of time saved for each step throughout the process as well as throughout the day for each machine and the total usage throughout the dying plant for all the machines.

In addition, if the amount of fuel needed for the heating process is calculated, it will be perfectly clear how much fuel is saved and that how this reflects itself in the dramatic drop in costs.
