The resins industry

Abstract

This Energy Consumption Guide shows the results of an energy survey of the resins industry undertaken in 1990 in association with the British Resin Manufacturers Association (BResMA), now the European Resins Manufacturers Association (ERMA). Although ERMA has members outside the UK, only UK members were included in this survey. Analysis showed a correlation between specific energy consumption and reactor cycle time and a ``best fit`` line was drawn on the scatter plot. If all of the companies whose specific energy consumptions lie above this line were to achieve sufficient energy savings to bring them down onto the line, then the national energy savings would be worth Pound 3.6M/y. An action plan is presented which gives a number of ideas for energy saving measures suitable for application in the resins industry. (author)
