CASE STUDY
BOILER ENERGY OPTIMIZATION
Solar-Assisted Boiler Energy-Saving Control System (2018)
Industrial automation for Al-Izza Feed Factory in Irbid – Kafr Youba, integrating solar-heated water with boiler operation.
AI-generated illustration.
What We Did
Implemented PLC and HMI control to monitor multiple solar-heater temperatures, automatically select the highest-temperature source, control its motorized valve, and provide operator monitoring with manual override.
The control strategy monitors multiple solar-heater temperatures, selects the highest-temperature source, operates the associated motorized valve, and provides operator monitoring with manual override. This arrangement supports better use of available solar thermal energy and reduces unnecessary boiler heating time.
Outcome
The system reduced unnecessary boiler heating time and improved utilization of available solar thermal energy, supporting lower diesel consumption.
