The gas cogeneration plant allows SACA to produce its own electricity and heat, reducing operating costs and CO₂ emissions.
Customisation
The system has been custom-designed to meet SACA's specific requirements, ensuring optimal integration with existing production processes.
Key Numbers
637 kWe
Electrical power
731 kWt
Heat output
>5.000h/year
Production regime
Background
SACA is a company specialising in wood coating, a sector that requires high energy consumption and environmental impact prevention.
The collaboration with Cefla has enabled us to implement advanced technological solutions to improve the efficiency and sustainability of production processes.
Challenges
- Reduction of energy costs
Need to reduce dependence on external energy sources and contain operating expenses.
- Environmental sustainability
Objective: minimise polluting emissions and comply with current environmental regulations.
- Technological integration
Implement new systems without disrupting existing production.
Project Tasks
Cefla designed and built a natural gas cogeneration plant integrated with painting and purification systems. The project included the installation of advanced technologies for thermal energy recovery and flow purification, improving the overall efficiency of the plant.
Implementation
The project was successfully completed, with the plant currently operating at the SACA facility. The results achieved include a significant reduction in energy costs, improved environmental quality and optimisation of production processes.
