Make a rough estimate of the cost of steam per ton produced


Make a rough estimate of the cost of steam per ton, produced from a packaged boiler. 10,000 kg per hour of steam are required at 15 bar. Natural gas will be used as the fuel, calorific value 39 MJ/m3 (roughly 1 MMBtu/1000 scf). Take the boiler efficiency as 80%. No condensate will be returned to the boiler.
