Industrial Furnaces: Verified Gas Savings

Plant data + OEM know-how, on-premises under data privacy — verified fuel savings at the same production output.

~7%

less gas for the same heating output, verified on a real furnace

5–10%

typical savings range across different days and production loads

19

standard readings used: gas flow, air fan, zone temperatures, oxygen

The business story

  • Measured on a real industrial furnace over a full production campaign. Savings are counted per unit of heating delivered — so they cannot be faked by producing less.
  • Adjusting the combustion-air fan speed cut gas use by about 7% at the same production output.
  • Recommendations stay inside safety limits on oxygen and zone temperatures — guided by this plant's data and furnace OEM docs.

Why furnaces are a fit

1. Site algorithms on matched-load gas use: Purpose-built algorithms map how this furnace's specific gas use responds to air settings the operator controls — and find the trim opportunity on-site.

2. Combustion OEM docs on site — not fleet learning: Guardrails and explanations use your manuals, combustion specs and drawings. Customer production data stays in the plant; it is not used to train other sites.

Sensors needed for this use case

Gas flow · Combustion-air fan speed · Zone temperatures · Oxygen (O₂) · Furnace pressure

Standard furnace readings already on the machine. Optional inputs: OEM manuals, specs, sketches.
