Abstract: Energy saving is the one of the step of the energy management. The energy management is play vital role in the industrial as well as domestic sector. The energy management concept was developed in USA and US since 1973, while in India and most Asian countries this concept was adopted in 1990 and later. The wastage reduction should include energy efficiency drives using improved designs and devices. The modification in components of the plant to increasing efficiency which is improved cycle performance. This Paper presented survey of energy end use in cryogenic-industries, such as OXYGEN MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES. The energy required for the production of liquid and gaseous phase of oxygen. We had carried out energy saving opportunity in oxygen plant and find the energy saving opportunities in various components of oxygen plant. This paper discussed the various parameters for the energy saving in the plant components. We find opportunities of energy saving in plant with some modification and calculate the actual power required in plant equipments
