As pharmaceutical manufacturers work to reduce energy consumption and meet sustainability targets, attention is expanding beyond core production processes to the utility systems that support manufacturing. Steam systems, which play a critical role in sterilization, heating, and HVAC operations, can account for a significant share of a facility's energy consumption. Yet things like manual inspection practices and undetected steam trap failures often leave manufacturers with unnecessary energy losses, higher emissions, and increased operating costs.
In this episode of Off Script, sponsored by Emerson, we spoke with Tom Belling, global director of Life Sciences at Emerson, about the growing role utilities play in pharmaceutical sustainability strategies, and the significance of steam systems within that. The conversation explores why steam systems have become an important opportunity for improving operational efficiency and how continuous monitoring technologies are helping manufacturers identify failures earlier without disrupting operations. Belling also discusses how wireless sensing, acoustic monitoring, and data-driven maintenance can improve reliability, support sustainability, and reduce maintenance costs while protecting product quality.
