Title:
Remote monitoring for steam trap failure prediction
Agreement Value:
$10,000.00
Agreement Date:
Dec 3, 2018 - Mar 31, 2019
Description:
GREEN YOUTH
Steam traps are common valves found in all steam utilities, which includes central heating systems, thermal power generation, and many types of manufacturing. Steam traps are known to fail frequently, and these failures often go undetected, resulting in wasted energy and potential safety hazards. The ability to predict and rectify failures immediately improves plant efficiency, reduce wasted energy, improve safety, and is consistent with lean manufacturing practices.
Commercialize & further validate integrated hardware/software solution to monitor, predict, and rectify failures in industrial steam traps.
