Galvanizing is a surface coating process for various industrial and commercial requirements. In Galvanizing, the metal is coated with a protective layer of Zinc which acts as a barrier to prevent oxidation. The most common method of galvanizing is hot dip galvanization.
Galvanizing process requires time, effort and the right fuel to make sure the process happens seamlessly. Many old manufacturing units use the liquid fuels like FO, LDO and HSD for galvanizing which have a major disadvantage. They not only affect the quality but the cost and environment also. Now the question that pops up in everyone’s mind is “which is the best fuel for Galvanizing“. The simplest answer is LPG and we will give you 5 reasons as to why LPG is the preferred fuel.
Reduced fuel cost: The calorific value of LPG is way higher than all the liquid fuels. This will create an advantage as to process more with less time. Considering the parameters of calorific value, heat transfer efficiency and unit fuel cost, overall LPG works out to be less costly as compared other fuels.
Reduced Carbon Footprint: LPG releases lower amount of carbon dioxide compared to other fuels. Thus, LPG promotes for a greener future in the long run. Check out this video for more information.
Lower maintenance: LPG unlike liquid fuels enjoy a complete combustion that is closer to stoichiometric values. Thus the combustion systems are free of soot and carbon particle formations. Hence combustion system (burners and furnaces) require less maintenance.
Higher productivity: Because of the better calorific value, the number of batches processed using LPG is substantially higher when compared to the same with liquid fuels ; thus enhancing the productivity.
Better finished product quality: The possibility of direct heating exists with LPG. This increases the heat transfer efficiency of the system thereby providing uniform heating to the batches resulted in better quality in the final product
