Abstract

This study addresses the maintenance of the Main Cooling Water Pump (MCWP) in Gas and Steam Power Plants, crucial for performance and sustainability. Existing practices often lack a comprehensive approach, integrating routine inspections with proactive maintenance strategies. We aimed to develop a maintenance framework that improves operational efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability. Over a 12-month period, data from various facilities indicated that our holistic approach increased pump efficiency by 15%, reduced downtime by 20%, and enhanced compliance with safety and environmental standards. These findings underscore the importance of integrated maintenance practices in responding to evolving industry challenges and regulations.

Highlights:

  • Holistic maintenance approach vital for MCWP performance.
  • Safety compliance crucial for personnel and asset protection.
  • Maintenance enhances efficiency and sustainability efforts.

Keywords: Maintenance, Main Cooling Water Pump, Energy Efficiency
