The proof: Case Studies (3 out of 300)
# 1. Refinery | Oil storage tank roof
Storage temperature: 60°C / 140°F
| BEFORE | AFTER THE TIPCHECK |
|---|---|
| Old and damaged insulation on the roof | Saved ~9.500 MWh of energy / year (↓80% energy) |
| CUI problems: roof sheets heavily corroded | Saved € 190.0000 per year |
| The roof had to be replaced | Payback time less than 2 years |
| CO2 emission reduction potential 3.620 t/year | |
| Results against uninsulated with an optimised insulation applied with a technical solution avoiding CUI problems |
# 2. Chemical Plant
Process temperature: from 75°C/ 167°F to 150°C/ 302°F
| BEFORE | AFTER THE TIPCHECK |
|---|---|
| 650 m of piping with missing or damaged insulation | Saved ~11.100 MWh of energy / year (↓95% energy) |
| 300 uninsulated pairs of flanges | Saved € 200.000 per year |
| 160 uninsulated valves | Payback time less than 1 year |
| 3 uninsulated tanks | CO2 emission reduction potential 2.240 t/year |
# 3. Refinery
Process temperature: 260°C/ 500°F
| BEFORE | AFTER THE TIPCHECK |
|---|---|
| 1 uninsulated valve 12’ | Saved ~114 MWh of energy per year (↓98% energy) |
| Saved € 3.200 per year | |
| Payback time less than 1 year | |
| CO2 emission reduction potential 51 t/year |
