IMPROVEMENT OF ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN GRIND STAGE ON OPERATING COSTS REDUCTION OF A INDUSTRIAL CHEMICAL FACILITY

  • Henrique Cesar Sampaio UNISAL

Resumo

The milling process requires resources that are mostly quite expensive as high energy consumption, equipment, grinding media, spending from devices exchanges, among others. And so a deep analysis of the circuit fragmentation operation type is necessary to make possible to choose the type of equipment and operation more appropriate to the purpose for which it is intended. Therefore, this work aims to assist in directing for choosing the most appropriate type of operation in the fine grinding process employed in the industrial sector. For the chemical industry sector, its main feature is the production of high value compounds, making the operating cost factor even more important. The energy consumed in comminution processes and mechanical deterioration to which the equipment is subjected, is directly related to operating costs and investment in comminution circuits. A better conformation of the comminution circuit is not only capital savings, as well as energy resources, to increase profitability, reduced operating time and better use of materials and energy resources. Through optimization methods and process control, seeks to achieve operating and optimal process control, so mathematical models can be built from Design of Experiments (DOE) methodology.
