Overview: Velsicol Chemical Corporation is a mid-size specialty chemical company. Environmental responsibility and competitive operating performance are important goals of Velsicol Chemical Corporation. The steam system energy efficiency was somewhat low due to steam trap failures that created system performance problems and resulted in the loss of condensate. The results of this program were impressive. By improving heat transfer within the system heat exchangers and by reducing condensate loss, Velsicol lowered their energy use and reduced their use of treatment chemicals.
