Abstract
In the current national scenario, the search of efficiency and reduction of cost and losses in the process are necessary and fundamental for the growth and maintenance of the companies. Pulp and papers companies are among the largest, most capital-intensive companies in the world with high profitable investments. With this, the demand for system without losses is indispensable for the development in this sector. In addition, this sector is a major energy consumer, either from electrical or steam in the process. Therefore, this paper presents an analysis of the energy efficiency of a pulp and paper industry in Brazil. The principle of thermal balance applied to evaluate the production, detecting operational functioning deficiencies through the evaluation of energy parameters.
