SHANGHAI, July 31,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Angel
Yeast (en.angelyeast.com) (SH600298), a global leader in
yeast manufacturing, is accelerating green transformation in its
factory workshops by implementing a series of intelligent,
automated, and sustainable technologies that not only improves
production efficiency, but also contributes to the sustainable
development of the industry.
In the company's yeast production workshop in Yichang,
Hubei Province, Angel Yeast has installed an intelligent
air-conditioning system to replace the traditional cooling method
that relies heavily on large quantities of cooling water and manual
labor.
The refrigeration system cluster intelligent control project
optimizes the operation through APC control technology, that when
the water pressure, water temperature or environment temperature
changes, the system adjusts automatically – for example, when the
system detects the temperature of circulating water reaches a
preset value, the fan frequency will be reduced automatically and
the number of operating fans will be minimized, effectively
lowering power consumption. The initiative has improved energy
efficiency by 18 percent, saving up to 5 million kWh of electricity
per year.
Angel Yeast is also advancing
intelligent and innovative resource recycling, taking concrete
measures to tackle the climate challenges. These measures include
an automated steam boiler with a DCS+APC control program; heat
recovery technology that replaces the cooling water of the steam
seal heater with demineralized water, which is then heated by the
waste heat from the exhaust steam and sent to the deaerator; and
adding heat exchange equipment at the back end of the deaerator
exhaust pipe to achieve full recycling of waste heat, saving nearly
130 tons of standard coal per year.
In 2024 to date, Angel Yeast has
invested 40 million yuan
(USD 5.52 million) and carried out
more than 40 technological transformation projects directly related
to energy conservation.
Additionally, it has stepped up laying out clean energy
operations such as biomass and green power, and strengthened energy
control to achieve a 2.5 percent year-on-year reduction in terms of
comprehensive energy consumption and energy cost of producing every
ton of yeast from January to May this year.
"Angel Yeast has always placed
energy saving and emission reduction as part of the core
development strategies, and as a socially responsible corporation,
we are committed to leading the green transformation through
technological innovation and responding to the global climate
crisis with concrete measures," said Xiong
Feng, Deputy General Manager of Angel Yeast Yichang Plant.
