Chemical industry

Improved energy efficiency and use of side streams

The Nordic chemical industry manufactures a wide variety of products, such as fuels, fertilizers, rubber and plastics, and pharmaceuticals. The industry remains reliant on fossil fuels and is seeking to become more energy efficient and decarbonise its processes in order to comply with increasingly strict environmental regulations.

The chemical industry consumes large quantities of water and it’s crucial to have an efficient water treatment process in place. In addition to decarbonisation and water treatment challenges, there is significant opportunity to improve side stream management across the industry. Together with customers Nevel builds a competitive advantage that fulfils operational and environmental goals.

Improved energy efficiency and sustainability

Nevel’s value-creation approach fits well with the needs of the chemical industry. We can support companies with improving energy efficiency, managing and creating value from side streams, and reducing operation and maintenance costs through outsourced heat and steam production. With our help companies can free capital, focus on their core business and become more competitive.

Nevel’s solutions to reduce carbon footprint and improve profitability

Primary energy production – In collaboration with our customers we identify new opportunities to improve cost-efficiency and sustainability by switching away from fossil fuels.

Heat recovery – Seeking new opportunities to recover excess heat and energy and recycle it back into production processes or leverage it as an additional revenue stream in conjunction with local municipalities, for example for district heating.

Industrial water treatment – Identifying novel approaches to both purify wastewater to ensure compliance with regulations and facilitate the recovery and reuse of valuable materials contained in wastewater.

Side stream management – Developing solutions for recovery of materials from waste side streams to improve environmental performance and open up new revenue-generating opportunities.

Our partnership model

Planning, implementing and operating the required energy infrastructure is not a core competence of most industrial companies. It therefore makes sense for companies to focus on their core business while a trusted partner takes responsibility for energy production.

We design, build and operate new and existing energy utility infrastructure. We invest on our customers behalf so that companies can improve their competitiveness by releasing capital for their core business. We enable lower production costs, ensure optimized resource and energy use and support customers to reach their sustainability targets.
