PET COKE FUEL NOT PREFERRED
Pet coke, a by-product of the oil refining process is gradually being discarded as an alternate fuel in furnaces especially on environmental concerns (very high Sulfur content and emissions.)
DIFFICULT RECOVERY OF ENERGY
Though stated to have high calorific value of about 7500Kal/kg, Industrial units able to recover part value and at times requiring dual feeding to recover 5-6 tons of steam per ton of pet coke.
MAINTENANCE OF BOILER SYSTEM EXPENSIVE
Sulfur deposits removal is difficult, expensive, time consuming and hazardous.
AVAILABILITY OF PET COKE AND RESTRICTION ON USE
Availability is also becoming an issue as well as increasing price and being banned in several parts of the country. Where it is still in use, notices have been issued by the respective state Government, advising industries to desist using pet coke.
CLEAN BIO-FUEL WOOD PELLETS
Nugreen has the normal pellets which give clean energy equivalent to pet coke without the attendant problems.
TORREFIED ENERGY DENSE PELLETS
Our Torrefied pellets give 6-7 tons of steam per ton of pellets and are thus more economical than even pet coke.
CAN BE USED IN EXISTING SYSTEM
As the pellets are virtually moisture free, one gets high productivity where used without harmful emissions in the same system as pet coke use with minor or no modification.
