Our Initiatives:
Heat Recovery System at
Filament Yarn Dyeing Facility
Filament Yarn Dye House facility is
equipped with the latest & highly
specialized filaments yarn processing
machinery. Installation of Heat
Recovery System has provided it
the advantage of economizing its
operations to a considerable extent.
High Temperature Waste Liquor
passes through heat exchanger to
raise the temperature of fresh water.
Heated water is used in subsequent
dyeing processes with no fuel input
which has reduced 540 tons of CO
2
emission since 2015.
Waste Heat Recovery System
(WHRS)
Besides producing electricity, the
Tri-Generation System at the Interloop
Power Plant also produces Free
Steam using the Waste Heat Recovery
Boilers. Of the total steam produced
at Interloop, 25-30 % is generated
through this technology with significant
reduction in CO emission. WHRS
2
has produced 67,130 tons free steam
since 2014 and contributed to reduce
15,536 tons of CO emission since
2
2015.
Steam from WHRB
(tons) Preference to R-407 & R-410
Refrigerant
2017 33,899
Keeping Interloop aligned with
2016 26,044
international standards, we prefer
2015 4,798 to use R-407 & R-410 refrigerants,
eliminating the use of R-12 & R-22
2014 2,389
refrigerants which have been banned Sustainability Report 2017
0 5000 10000 15000 20000 25000 30000 35000 globally due to their harmful impacts
on the environment.
