Energy Efficiency in Steam Systems by Kate Torzewski, Department Editor - Chemical Engineering Magazine

In today’s typical process plants, preventing steam loss and improving condensate return are key opportunities to make a process more energy efficient.
To be the most effective, steam generally needs to be dry (such as for process usage), or superheated (for instance, for use in turbines). These requirements dictate utility-system operating procedures for generating the highest quality steam possible, and then distributing it to the points of use with minimal deterioration. Since steam becomes condensate after its heat energy is expended, strategies must be in place to remove condensate as quickly as it is formed, in the steam-supply portion of the circuit and during steam usage alike.
