Hydropower forging is an important part in hydraulic engineering, its quality and performance directly affect the safety and operation of hydraulic engineering. In the production process, hydropower forgings need to go through multiple processes and complex process treatment, involving equipment, personnel, materials and energy and other aspects. In order to improve the production efficiency and quality, reduce energy consumption and environmental pollution, it is necessary to analyze and optimize the energy consumption in the production process, and put forward the corresponding energy-saving measures. This paper aims to discuss the energy consumption analysis and energy-saving measures in the production process of hydropower forgings, and provide decision support and guidance for enterprises.
Source of energy consumption
The energy consumption in the production process of hydropower forgings mainly comes from the following aspects: first, the processing and treatment of raw materials and auxiliary materials; Second, the operation and maintenance of the equipment; Third, the energy consumption of heating, cooling and ventilation processes; The fourth is the work and living consumption of personnel. Among them, the energy consumption of processes such as heating and cooling is one of the main sources of energy consumption, accounting for a large proportion of the entire production process.
Loss path
In the production process of hydropower forgings, the loss of energy consumption mainly includes the following aspects: first, the operation efficiency of equipment is low, resulting in energy waste; Second, the process is unreasonable, resulting in energy waste; Third, the utilization rate of raw materials and auxiliary materials is low, resulting in energy waste; Fourth, the operation of personnel is not standardized, resulting in energy waste. These loss channels not only increase the production cost of enterprises, but also affect the competitiveness and sustainable development of enterprises.
Energy utilization efficiency
Energy utilization efficiency refers to the effective use of energy in the production process of enterprises. In the production process of hydropower forgings, the evaluation of energy utilization efficiency needs to consider many factors, such as the utilization rate of raw materials and auxiliary materials, the operating efficiency of equipment, the rationality of the process and so on. Through the evaluation and analysis of these factors, we can understand the energy utilization status of enterprises, and provide a basis for the formulation and implementation of energy-saving measures.
Energy-saving measures
Process technology improvement
Process technology improvement is one of the important ways to reduce energy consumption. In the production process of hydropower forgings, advanced process technology and equipment can be used, such as the use of new materials, optimization of process flow, improvement of processing methods, etc., to reduce energy consumption and reduce environmental pollution. At the same time, technical means such as waste heat utilization and energy recovery can also be used to improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce production costs.
Equipment renovation and upgrading
Equipment transformation and upgrading is one of the important means to improve equipment operation efficiency and reduce energy consumption. In the production process of hydropower forgings, advanced equipment and technical means can be used, such as high-efficiency energy-saving motors, frequency converters, PLC control systems, etc., to improve the operating efficiency of equipment and reduce energy consumption. At the same time, it can also transform and upgrade the old equipment, improve the performance and reliability of the equipment, and reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment.
Operation management optimization
Operation management optimization is one of the important means to improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce energy consumption. In the production process of hydropower forgings, advanced operational management methods and technical means can be adopted, such as lean production, six Sigma, etc., to improve personnel’s operational level and standard degree, reduce energy consumption and reduce environmental pollution. At the same time, it can also establish an energy management system and an environmental management system to comprehensively manage and monitor the energy and environment of the enterprise and improve the energy utilization efficiency and environmental performance of the enterprise.
The application and promotion of new energy
The application and promotion of new energy is one of the important means to reduce energy consumption and environmental pollution. In the production process of hydropower forgings, renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy can be used to replace traditional fossil energy, reduce energy consumption and reduce environmental pollution. At the same time, distributed energy systems, energy storage technology and other means can also be adopted to optimize the allocation and utilization of enterprise energy, improve the efficiency of energy utilization and reduce production costs.
Taking a specific hydropower forging production enterprise as an example, this paper introduces the specific process and effect of implementing energy-saving measures on the basis of energy consumption analysis. The enterprise in the production process mainly adopted the following energy-saving measures: first, the use of new energy-saving materials and equipment, improve the operating efficiency of equipment and reduce energy consumption; The second is to optimize the process flow and processing methods, reduce the consumption of raw materials and auxiliary materials and improve the utilization rate; The third is to establish an energy management system and an environmental management system to comprehensively manage and monitor the energy and environment of the enterprise; Fourth, the use of renewable energy such as solar and wind energy to replace traditional fossil energy reduces energy consumption and environmental pollution. Through the implementation of these energy-saving measures, the production efficiency and product quality of the enterprise have been significantly improved, the production cost has been reduced, and the competitiveness of the enterprise has been enhanced.
