“…The other mills (apart from these four mills) have mechanical turbines, and thus, thermal energy consumption is on the higher side as compared to mills A-D. Usually, sugar mills having mechanical steam turbines that drive cane preparation units have higher steam consumption due to the poor efficiency of the mechanical steam turbines. Replacement of these turbines with electric drives will improve the electrical power generation since steam will be saved [11,12]. As can be seen from Fig.…”

“…During unplanned stoppages the cogeneration unit does not normally stop fully, rather the bagasse flow to the boiler will decrease, thus the boiler runs at a lower load. There are conditions where sugar mills use fuel oil during unplanned stoppages, incurring an extra cost and resulting in relatively high carbon dioxide emissions [13]. This is not the case in Carlos Baliño as the existing boilers can use only bagasse or wood.…”

“…Thus, it is obvious that operation of the sugar mill at nominal parameters is not always the case. The actual operational parameters vary throughout the crushing season due to unexpected interruptions during the operation of the sugar mill [13]. This leads to variation of collected data in different crushing season and this is experienced during the in-field study conducted in different years resulting some difference in the actual operation data collected from the Baliño [7][8][9][10].…”
