Abstract
The consumption of natural gas is Unilever Boksburgs’
Household Care and Laundry factory’s greatest expense. In
response to the pursuit of decreasing expenses as well as
carbon footprint, the efficiency of the drying tower is examined.
This project aims to provide an improved configuration for
lances within the drying tower in an attempt to improve the
efficiency of gas usage within the tower.
