I. INTRODUCTION
Power is the ability to do work and work is the exchange of vitality starting with one structure then onto the next type of vitality. Vitality sources are accessible as electrical, warm, light, synthetic, mechanical, sun powered, wind, tidal, atomic vitality, etc. The coal and the rough fuel are the significant regular assets are meeting 85% of the general public need which will exhaust soon. The basic objective of vitality the executives is to deliver merchandise and give benefits the least cost and least ecological impact. The term vitality the board implies numerous things to numerous individuals. The basic definition is" The wise and powerful utilization of vitality to augment benefits (limit expenses) and upgrade focused positions".
To accomplish low carbon economy by sparing vitality is the pattern of the present society. Evaporator is a sort of basic types of gear with high vitality utilization. At present, evaporator effectiveness isn't high and a lot of vitality has been squandered intensely in China. The trial of evaporator proficiency is a viable method to recognize heater issues and improve its productivity. Until 2008, the complete number of utilizing modern boilers has been added up to 578200 units. The conventional strategy to test kettle proficiency is tedious and costly, and the trial of heater effectiveness needs extreme examination of fuel. In any case, the trial of a definitive investigation of fuel needs prolonged stretch of time, and its related gear is likewise increasingly costly. Boilers are viewed as the key part in any age station as it is where the fuel is utilized for creating the required measure of warmth. A kettle is an unpredictable incorporation of evaporator, re-warmer, super radiator, economizer, air pre radiator alongside different helpers, for example, pulverizer, fans, and so on. The reason for the presentation trial of kettle is to decide real execution and productivity of the evaporator and contrast it and configuration esteems.

III. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED WORK
Boiler is a typically complex system which is multi-input, multi-output, nonlinear as well as non-self-balanced, and boiler combustion of power station is complex physical and chemical process. In survey, authors reported that the natural gas boiler has significantly lower CO2 emission than an equivalent coal or oil fired boiler. Therefore how to improve the combustion efficiency of natural gas boiler has always been an important issue in this field. The efficiency of a boiler system is important in several ways. The constantly rising cost of fuel used means that by increasing the efficiency by several percent, substantial savings can be made on a yearly basis. By maximizing the amount of energy extracted from the fuel, not only does the fuel usage decrease and thereby reduce cost but it also has a significant effect on the emissions from the system. Thus this work provides the performance comparison of Briquette Boiler & Furnace Boiler of Coca-Cola Plant and the ways to improve its efficiency. The main objective of this work is to study performance analysis of Briquette & FO Boiler of Process Industry.

The Manufacturing facility is capable of producing different types of carbonated & non carbonated products in different flavour & pack size as well Packaging drinking water in different size .The plant is the franchise of Coca-cola company in this area. It is largest plant in terms of production and automation facility in India in Coca-cola system. The plant has two Boilers one is Briquette Boiler and other is FO Boiler. For producing output in Briquette Boiler, labour cost is also considered because it requires at least 4 persons at a time. The briquette boiler efficiency will be improved by use of auto-feeder system.
A. Boiler Efficiency
To get the most out of the boiler system it is necessary to implement a complete maintenance/efficiency plan to maintain every aspect of efficiency. Basically, boiler efficiency represents the difference between energy input and energy output. Boiler efficiency describes the fraction of fuel energy that is converted into useful steam energy. In this work, efficiency comes down to properly evaluating the performance of the boiler and the performance of the burner. There are three terms that influence boiler efficiency; Combustion Efficiency and Fuel-to-Steam Efficiency and Thermal Efficiency.
Combustion efficiency is an indication of the burner’s ability to burn fuel and the ability of the boiler to absorb the heat generated. The amount of unburned fuel and excess air in the exhaust gas are used to assess a burner’s combustion efficiency. Burners performing with extremely low levels of unburned fuel while operating at low excess air levels are considered efficient. In other words, combustion efficiency is measured by dividing the usable heat produced by the fuel input in MJ/h content. This calculation is based on the actual heat available produced by the system after heat loss up the stack and other heat losses which do not provide usable heat. To determine Boiler Efficiency, there are two methods that are typically utilized but generally prefer Direct Method (Input-Output Method) to calculate. It needs only the useful output (steam) and the heat input (i.e. fuel) for evaluating the efficiency. This efficiency can be evaluated using the formula:

B. Procedure of Finding Boiler Efficiency
1) Measure steam stream by means of kg over a set period, for example 60 minutes. Use steam integrator readings, if accessible, and right for alignment pressure. On the other hand, utilize the feed water integrator, if accessible, which will as a rule not require an amendment for pressure.
2) Measure the progression of fuel over a similar period. Utilize the gas or oil integrator, or decide the mass of strong fuel utilized.
3) Convert steam stream, feed water stream and fuel stream to indistinguishable vitality units, for example Btu/lb. or on the other hand kJ/kg.
4) Calculate the productivity utilizing the accompanying condition: Efficiency = 100 x (steam vitality – feed water vitality) ÷ fuel vitality.
C. Energy Efficiency by Frequency Reduction
In Fig 4, a Voltage Frequency Drive is introduced for examination of execution of Boiler System regarding Energy Efficiency. Without Drive, it is legitimately controlled and fixed at a solitary recurrence yet after establishment of Drive, vitality productivity is improved and furthermore lessens cost.

D. Analysis to Improve Boiler Efficiency & Plant Efficiency using MATLAB
The organization is utilizing a fundamental rankine cycle with an open framework. The wellspring of crude water for evaporator is siphoned from the close by Bore well to the save plant bore well for further inside and outside medications. Superheated steam created from heater is utilized to run steam turbine for heat age and for heat process in the plant. The fumes steam from turbine is then consolidated and later released and blended in with squander water from the plant activity to the gushing treatment. The fundamental goal of this investigation is to improve by and large heater productivity and plant proficiency. At first Steam Pressure 360 PSI and temperature 280°C separately for evaporator Operation. It is estimated soon after the evaporator at third Point in the figure. Presently, it expands the kettle strain to 5.0 MPa while superheated steam temperature is kept up at 280°C. It gives the improvement in Boiler Efficiency by modest quantity. Presently, in second case, it expands the temperature from 280°C to 400°C and weight will stay same. Just temperature will increment. At that point it additionally influences the improvement in Efficiency of System.
