Use of Energy in Textile Industry: A Case Study on Ethiopian Textile Industry

Energy is essential for the creation of wealth and improvement of social welfare; this means that adequate and reliable supply of energy is required to ensure sustainable development.The textile industry is one of the major energy consuming industries and retains a record of the lowest efficiency in energy utilization but energy consumption is in increasing trend, due to modernized machines and continuous usage of the equipments in inefficient operating parameters. The energy cost is around 15 % to 20 % over the production cost and it stands next to raw material cost. So now a day's area of focus is towards energy consumption at load end and by optimizing the efficiency of the mills. Most of the textile mills have several common features and therefore if the key features for conserving energy are identified then it is quite possible that these can be replicated to the other plants as well. In our research paper we investigated the comprehensive overview of the present energy management strategies in the Ethiopian textile industry and the Implementation Strategies and barriers of Energy Conservation Management Technologies and the driving forces for the implementation of energy efficiency measure.

Energy Efficiency in Textile Industry for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses

2020

In this study, research was carried out on how to prevent unnecessary energy in the textile sector, and solutions were presented in this context, identifying the main problems. The textile industry is one of the most beautiful examples in the globalized world. A product is not manufactured in a plant from start to finish, but instead, it is customized to be small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for one task. Energy efficiency is especially important for SMEs to compete with businesses in Asian countries in the market. The purpose of examining the energy sources used in this study under the headings of electricity and thermal energy was to prepare a more detailed report and create a resource that could be used in the sector. As a result of our study, energy savings of up to 60% can be saved by changing most machines and working methods used in the sector with simple customizations or new ones that can be made in machines because of the lack of old or working methods designed to m...

A Review on Energy Management in Textile Industry

Innovative Energy & Research, 2017

In textile mill, electricity consumption is in increasing trend, due to modernized machines and continuous usage of the equipment's in inefficient operating parameters. Textile sector may be considered as one of the largest industrial sector in India and at the same time it is also one of the oldest sectors in the country. Even after a lot of technological development globally, most of the mills are using the same old technology. The energy cost is around 15%-20% over the production cost and it stands next to raw material cost. Hence now a day's area of focus is towards energy consumption at load end and by optimizing the efficiency of the motor. Although for the last few years process of modernization in textile industries are underway but still the pace is slow. So, in order to include major players of textile sector as well as other energy intensive industries for energy efficiency movement. In this paper, influence of various areas of energy consumption and process of optimisation in textile mill on energy conservation is discussed with practical data.

Potential of reduction in carbon dioxide equivalent emissions via energy efficiency for a textile factory

Journal of Energy Systems, 2018

Today, one of the most important issues in the world is that the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which is the fundamental reason for global warming exhibits a severe increase in every passing year. It is a general view that the most crucial step to succeed in mitigation carbon emissions is the reduction of energy consumption. In this study, production and energy consumption data only for year 2016 of an industrial textile factory in Turkey were employed to explore carbon emission mitigation potential through energy efficiency. The research consists of three steps listed as i) data collection, ii) data processing and iii) data evaluation. Energy saving potential of the industry has been determined with the help of the energy consumption relations developed depending on data obtained from the factory by calculating the target energy consumption for year 2017 and beyond. Also, the amount of reduction in carbon emissions stemming from the amount of fuel saved thanks to energy efficiency has been calculated. Energy saving potential for 2017 and later years was found 98.9 TOE per year and also due to these saving, the amount of the reduction in CO 2 emissions of the factory will totally be 2.75 milliontones CO 2 in comparison to year 2016. It is also seen that financial savings will be approximately € 28,646.06 for the year 2017 and later years.

Energy Efficiency in Textile Sector of Pakistan: Analysis of Energy Consumption of Air-Conditioning Unit

Pakistan today is facing a serious energy crisis due to the alarming depletion of energy resources and increasing demand of the industry, which has badly affected our industrial sector in general. No doubt, this situation has emerged globally, but this is also a fact that these energy crises in our industrial sector are due to orthodox processes, conventional infrastructures/buildings, inefficient HVAC systems, inadequate use of electrical and mechanical equipment, non compliance to standard inspection techniques which has resulted higher energy losses. This study reveal to the management of the factors, (i.e. housekeeping, control of operations and infrastructure), affecting the performance of AC plants of the spinning subsector of textile industry. Energy audits were conducted to collect data. The data was analyzed and it was concluded that along with the technological interventions we need to introduce green infrastructure in AC plants of spinning mills.

Investigation of Specific Energy Consumption and Possible Reduction Measures of Textile Spinning Mills

Energy plays an important role in the growth of any country in the world. Global energy crises, rapid growth rate, high production demand and increasing energy cost are the major factors for adopting energy conservation techniques. Pakistan energy crisis threatens the textile industry. This crisis reduces the entire textile production capacity by 30%. Keeping this scenario in view, a study and calculation, presented in this paper, has been conducted for the investigation of specific energy consumption (SEC) of 20tex and 30tex cotton yarn. The purpose of this work is not only to investigate the SEC but also employing better processing techniques to reduce SEC. The level of reduction in SEC depends on the amount of investment and the use of modern technology. This study results depicted 8 % energy consumption has been reduced in the spinning mills. It also helps to control the energy crisis of Pakistan.
