As an important transportation, the belt conveyor has been widely used and researched. It is urgent to solve the problem of energy saving and consumption reduction of belt conveyor. Aiming at reducing high energy consumption in the rated-speed operation of a belt conveyor, the present paper establishes an energy-saving belt-speed model of a belt conveyor using a polynomial regression-fitting algorithm and a small number of sample observations, and proposes a speed regulation strategy and particle swarm optimization–proportional–integral–derivative algorithm for the variable-belt-speed energy-saving control of a belt conveyor based on the material flow rate. The control strategy and algorithm adjust the running speed of the belt conveyor accurately according to changes in the material flow rate, thus reducing damage of frequent speed regulation to the belt conveyor and saving energy. Simulation analysis of a practical case shows that energy-saving belt-speed model, speed regulation strategy, and algorithm effectively reduce the energy consumption of a belt conveyor, and they thus have high application value in coal, ports, power, mine, metallurgy, chemical, and other industries. Further work in this field can be focused on the prediction of material flow rate of belt conveyor, the controllable adjustment duration of algorithm and the reduction of overshoot.

High energy consumption is an important issue affecting the operation and development of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This paper seeks energy-saving opportunities from three aspects: energy application, process optimization, and performance evaluation. Moreover, effective energy-saving can be achieved from the perspective of energy supply and recovery by using green energy technologies, including wastewater and sludge energy recovery technologies. System optimization and control is used to reduce unnecessary energy consumption in operation. Reasonable indexes and methods can help researchers evaluate the application value of energy-saving technology. Some demonstration WWTPs even can achieve energy self-sufficiency by using these energy conservation technologies. Besides, this paper introduces the challenges faced by the wastewater treatment industry and some emerging energy-saving technologies. The work can give engineers some suggestions about reducing energy consumption from comprehensive perspectives.

With the characteristics of low permeability, pressure and abundance, it's extremely hard to exploit the super low permeability reservoirs in ChangQing oil field. For this reason, the water injection recovery technique has been widely used. Analysis showed that a serious problem of high energy consumption exist in the water injection system, the power consumption of which accounts for about 44%. And the energy cost of pump units reach up to 43%, it's the highest energy consumption link in the system. In this paper the load rate classification method (LRCM) is firstly adopted to statistical analyze water injection stations, which are divided into the owing and over load rate stations. As a result, the owing load rate stations accounts for 83.8%, with a serious phenomenon of the Big Horse Pull A Small Carriage, causing the large-scale backflow in the station, and the efficiency is low, the energy consumption is on the high side. Aimed at water injection stations with different load rate, the methods of reasonable shutting down the pumps, pump replacement, optimizing the transmission ratio and piston size, as well as the speed control technology have been used to make the outlet flow and actual demand reasonable matching. The test result shows that the energy saving technology is well targeted, simple, practical and low cost. The pump units’ efficiency improves obviously, the consumption reduces by 10%, which greatly improve the oilfield economic benefits.

Pneumatic booster valve is widely used in local pressure boost circuit for energy saving, a new booster valve with energy recovery (short for BVER) was proposed in this paper in order to further improve the energy efficiency. Firstly, the principle of BVER was introduced by comparing with the traditional booster. Based on flow-rate characteristics equation, gas state equation, energy conservation equation, etc., the mathematics model of BVER was established, and the flow-rate characteristics, boost ratio, pressure in tank and energy efficiency were systematically analyzed by simulation. Lastly, the model was verified by experiments. This study shows that: firstly, the pressure decreased sharply with the flow-rate’s increasing, and the pressure in tank is much lower than in BVER. Secondly, the boost ratio was affected by supply pressure, regulator coefficient and the diameter of recovery chamber. Thirdly, the pressure fluctuation in tank decreases with the tank volume increasing, and the pressure fluctuation is less than 1% when tank volume is larger than 10L. Lastly, the energy efficiency will increase 5∼10 percent with the boost ratio increases 15∼25 percent under different supply pressure. This study proves that BVER has better performance than VBA for its high boost ratio and high energy efficiency, and it provides a reference for booster valve’s design and energy saving.

This article introduce a kind of energy-saving control method and implementation for a tower pump in industrial cooling water system (hot tub→ up tower pump→ cooling tower→ cold pool). Under the conditions without changing the original industrial cooling water’s normal operating, the method of temperature control liquid-level under the protection of pressure to regulate and control the energy-saving process of cooling water on tower pump was used. According to the hot tub’s actual temperature and cold pool’s temperature which has process requirements can automatically regulate the hot tub’s liquid height or the height difference between hot tub and cold pool. It can finally automatically control the natural flow rate of the connected overflow hole or connecting pipe, thereby reducing the pump flow rate on tower to ensure the purpose of siginificant energy-saving on the basis of process demand. The comprehensive energy-saving rate can be 40% to 60% or more.
