Energy Saving through control – polymer extrusion
Energy Saving through Optimization
Energy waste
• Unnecessary over heating
• Long machine start-up time
• Unacceptable quality
• Machine fault
• Changing material
III. Simulation and Conclusion
● Economic dispatch is the short-term
determination of the optimal output of a
number of electricity generation
facilities, to meet the system load, at
the lowest possible cost.
●Emergency reserve is required on the
purpose of maintaining the reliability in
case of the loss of a main unit or an
increase in load.
