- Preferred supplies equipment and expertise to save over $50,000 per year of fuel and over $3,000 worth of electricity with a new burner. The reduction in natural gas consumption would reduce the plant's carbon dioxide emissions by over 600,000 lbs per year. In addition, up to a quarter of the heat input of this burner comes from the digester gas produced from corn and bean waste produced by the cannery.

A badly designed fueld system can cause a power interuption just as certainly as a failure of the the downstream equipment.
