How to Calculate the True Cost of Steam
Course Highlights

This online engineering CPD course provides a comprehensive overview of methods to find the true cost of steam. 

 

In industrial manufacturing facilities, process heating accounts for an average of more than 60% of thermal energy use, predominantly in the form of steam. Process heating also accounts for a significant portion of controllable operating costs. It is one of the few areas of opportunity where management can reduce operating costs and improve profits. This course examines different methods to calculate the cost of steam and compares the results showing how the model method is a recommended approach.

 

This 1 CPD online course is applicable to industrial engineers, plant engineers and other technical professionals who are interested in learning more about how to calculate the true cost of steam.
Learning Objectives

This continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with the basics of steam cost generation
  • Understanding different ways to find the cost of steam generation
  • Learning about simulation models to calculate the steam cost
  • Understanding the methodology for marginal steam pricing
Course Document
