Abstracts: The term Utility mainly covers water, steam, gas and electricity. The generation, transmission, consumption are the potential areas where the losses can occur. Optimizationis a process of making a design fully perfect, functional and as effective as possible. Energy efficiency means to reduce the amount of energy required to provide products/services. Energy conservation means to reduce energy through less usage of energy services. It is not cut in energy consumption but cut in misuse/wastage of energy. The conservation and efficient use of energy is necessary now a days because 1.Energy prices have increased at an alarming rate and interest in environmental responsibility is at an all-time high. 2. Savings in the overall utility costs 3. Reduce manufacturing cost and increase the profitability of any CPI.4. It can also be seen as a solution to the problem of reducing carbon-di-oxide emissions. The project mentioned here is mainly based on a fire tube boiler using natural gas as fuel. Boiler is a device used for steam generation, and it has two major parts. A)Furnace:which provides heat, by burning a fuel.B)Boiler shell: In which heat changes water into steam. The steam is then re-circulated out of the boiler.
