1983—Condenser water flow study
• 2 x 480 RT screw chillers + 2 x 120 RT reciprocating
• Design condenser flows 1,440 usgpm & 360 usgpm
• Magnetic flowmeter on main riser pipe
• 480 RT chiller flows ~ 1400usgpm
• 120 RT chiller flows ~ 1300 usgpm
• Same flowmeter on riser is reading both flows so accuracy not in question

Turn Down the Energy/Tune Up the Profits
Only a third of U.S. manufacturers are seriously scrutinizing energy usage, where savings in five areas can move billions to the bottom line.
Philip Siekman
Labor is a big part of costs for chip packagers. In Muntinlupa City, just outside Manila, Pilipinas has over 6,000 employees. But given the need for huge clean rooms with oceans of filtered air, energy costs are high. Two years ago the
company called in a Singapore engineering firm, Supersymmetry Services,
and asked it how to reduce the electric bill in the 689,000-square-foot Muntinlupa plant as well as in a new facility planned not far away.
Supersymmetry was founded in 1988 by Lee Eng Lock, a Singapore-born
British-educated engineer with a growing international reputation for an iconoclastic approach to the design and construction of HVAC systems, particularly for electronics-plant clean rooms. Lee says there is "no special magic" needed to cut HVAC costs, just a "return to basic value-for-money thinking, careful measurement and analysis, openness to new ideas, and willingness to do hard work." He contends that the reasons companies settle for less efficient HVAC systems, at least in Asia, are "fear of loss of face, payola, very nice entertainment in Hawaii, karaoke lounges, golf, total disinterest, vested interest...." In Manila, Lee started with the easy ones: upgrading the lighting, turning off the office air conditioning at night, replacing screw-type air compressors with high-efficiency centrifugal units. Then he rebuilt or tuned up the air-conditioning and handling system. Ed Ornela, the company's corporate engineering director in the Philippines, calculates that the new air compressors cut the annual electric bill by $580,000; a new chiller and changes in chiller operation saved another $620,000; and other improvements lopped off $919,000. Amkor/Anan's electricity bill actually went up, from $7.2 million in 1995 to $8.5 million in 1997, as chip output doubled. But the power cost per chip, adjusted for chip size, tumbled by 37%. Examples like these ought to inspire companies that have paid little attention to their energy bills. A lot of waste, ironically, can be found in some U.S. semiconductor plants that feed work to companies like Amkor. A chip plant's electricity bill can easily hit $2 million a month. That concerns utilities and governments, particularly in the Pacific Northwest. The Northwest Power Planning Council, made up of representatives of four of the region's state governments, sponsored a workshop where Lee Eng Lock showed how to reduce HVAC power requirements in clean rooms from a current 1.2 kilowatts to two kilowatts per ton of cooling capacity to what he says is an achievable 0.6 kilowatt to 0.7 kilowatt per ton.

Action on HFC Gases "Low Hanging Fruit" Opportunity to Combat Climate Change
• Nairobi, 22 June 2009 – A scientific paper, highlighting the need to accelerate action over a group of gases known as Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) as part of the climate change agenda, was today welcomed by the head of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP). The findings, by an international team of researchers are published in the Proceeedings of the National Academy of Sciences……. Under a scenario where carbon dioxide emissions are pegged to 450 parts per million HFCs could equal nine Gigatonnes - equivalent to around 45 per cent of total C02 emissions - by 2050 if their growth is unchecked.

JARN interview with USEPA’s Director Dr Stephen Anderson
“The cost of the refrigerant is a small part of owning an air conditioner or a refrigerator. The biggest part is the purchase price and the electricity. So, I think that the refrigerant costs are of minor significance.”
So far, there’s no essential use for HCFCs because the phase-out comes many years into the future. Most people believe there will be an essential use exemption for HCFC. And if that were true, and the HCFC-123 building air conditioners retained their competitive advantage for high energy efficiency, then they probably would get that exemption. So you could keep using 123 until a better refrigerant comes. But here’s the more important question, why would someone believe that HFC-134a will be in the market longer than HCFC-123?
There is no plan to further accelerate the HCFC phase-out, but there is every intention to accelerate the HFC-134a phase down. So HFC-134a may be gone from chillers before HCFC-123. Today when you go to buy, and you ask the question, which refrigerant will last the longest in the market, I don’t think it’s HFC-134a. HFC-1234yf should work anywhere HFC-134a is working today. Both HCFC-123 and HFC-134a are in regulatory jeopardy, but the difference is that HCFC-123 gets higher energy efficiency. For large chillers, it’s the top-runner.
HCFC-123 is currently the best in the market. With 134a under phase-out worldwide for cars, stationary is next. It’s exciting!

IDEAS SOUGHT FOR BETTER DESALINATION – Aug 2007 Business Times, Singapore
• The Environment and Water Resources Ministry is looking for better ways to make clean water out of seawater.
• Its Environment and Water Industry Development Council is asking all local and overseas institutes of higher learning, research institutes and private sector companies to submit proposals for technologies which can desalinate seawater using a total energy consumption of not more than 1.5 kWh per m3 of water produced - less than half the energy now used by other technologies.
• The closing date is Nov 2. For more information. go to www.mewr.gov.sg/ewi .

…...Siemens Water Technologies team yesterday bagged a S$4 million grant from the Environment and Water Industry Development Council (EWI)…. used electricity instead of high pressure or heat to remove salt from sea water, and produced a cubic metre of pure drinking water on 1.5 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of power.
.
….PUB technology director Harry Seah described the novel approach as one which 'blows convention away'.
….Prof Lui …. 'This is what we call disruptive technology - and it's exactly what we're looking for.'
News of this new technology is a prelude to the cutting-edge technologies that will be on show at the Singapore International Water Week, which officially opens today.

Latest NEA guidelines for energy audits in Singapore—June 2009
– Chilled water plant system performance
• System performance measurement error shall not exceed ±5%.
This implies the use of high accuracy thermometry and
calorimetry.
• Detailed method statement explaining how the required degree
of accuracy was achieved with the instruments and data
acquisition hardware employed.
• Data required to establish system performance must be
sampled and acquired simultaneously and continuously for a
minimum of 1 week at one-minute intervals.

• Details of instrumentation used – parameters monitored and
duration of monitoring for each parameter
• Data plots of performance of systems or equipment audited
• Energy efficiency of major equipment compared against
industrial benchmarks
• Measurement and verification (M&V) plan for monitoring and
verifying energy savings for each of the recommendations
• CD-ROM containing the raw measurement data
