Steam
 Steam is used in a wide range of industries.
 Steam is the gas formed when water passes from the liquid to the gaseous state.

Process Steam System

 Is an efficient, energy saving system used by the manufacturing industry, as steam is
regarded as a cost-effective energy source. The production of steam through this system
is among the topmost energy-intense processes, especially in the field of manufacturing.

ADVANTAGES OF STEAM AS SOURCE OF ENERGY

 Easy Transport
 Safe to Use
 Easy to Control
 Low Levels of Toxicity
 High Capacity to Produce Heat
 Higher Efficiency
 Reduced Costs in Production
 Serves Multi Purposes
