               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.
