摘要
製藥過程中，控制生產區域的溫度與濕度，並維持生產區域之潔淨度，至關重要。本研究在於建置藥廠相關系統的耗能監視與節能評估系統，期能降低製藥過程能耗，並在系統出現異常能耗時，能及早發現。如此可指引確切原因，以提供操作人員參考和有效調整，即早恢復正常運作。本研究運用建築管理系統（Building Management System, BMS）掌控冰水主機相關數據，並透過環境監測系統（Environmental Monitoring System, EMS）追蹤潔淨室溫、濕度變化。同時透過用電紀錄進行用電分析，評估實際異常能耗模式，提出系統優化方案。經由上述方法，可望提升廠區能源效率，並有效避免環境和藥品污染。經實際廠區能源盤查分析發現，空調系統之實際用電量，占總電量消耗比例高達51%，冰水主機是最重要的耗能設備。藉由使用變頻器進行控制，可使滷水出水溫度範圍增加，每日實際耗電量由319.82 kWh 降低至71.15 kWh。如此，滷水機實際節能效果可達77.75%，年度電費節約283,000元，年度減排44,928 kg CO_2。
