Steam Unit Cost & CO₂

The fuel cost and carbon footprint of a tonne of steam, and the annual total.

Unit system

Inputs

Cost per tonne of steam

26.80

Annual fuel cost

1,608,305

Details

Energy needed per unit of steam2,336 kJ/kg
Fuel energy per tonne of steam705.4 kWh
CO₂ per tonne of steam (kg)142.5
Annual CO₂8,549 t/yıl
Boiler heat duty7,054 kW

Assumptions

  • This is the FUEL cost only. Water, chemicals, electricity, maintenance and depreciation are excluded; the true steam cost is higher.
  • Saturated steam is assumed at the boiler outlet. Producing superheated steam needs more energy and costs more.
  • Blowdown loss is not included here; read it alongside the Blowdown Rate calculation.
