Green energy savings systems maker Thermal Energy International Inc. is supplying China’s Jiangsu Huachang Chemical Co. (Huachang) with 39 GEM steam traps. The chemical manufacturer is installing the technology at its sprawling 150-hectare Yangtze River International Chemical Industry Park factory, where it yearly turns out more than 3.6 million tons of chemical-based products. Secured through Thermal Energy’s partner Jiagnan Boilers and Pressure Vessels Co., the order is the Ottawa company’s second by a customer in China. Developed by Thermal’s UK division, Gardner Energy Management, GEM installed on Huachang’s steam distribution system is expected to save the company up to 50% in the cost of steam production by reducing leakage and maintenance.
