By applying biomass incinerators (shavings, rice husk, coffee husk, straw ...), a latex drying company in Binh Duong province has more than 20% saving fuel compared to diesel oil used as transmission systems. Incinerator systems are Dr. Nguyen Thanh Quang, chemical engineering department, HCMC Polytechnic University research and manufacturing throughout the 3 years.
Rubber is put into the oven-dried biomass.
Cost savings
More than 3 months now, people in Tam Lap Phu Giao District, Binh Duong Province astonished because in front Manufacturing Co., Ltd. trade Almighty always fully stocked rice husk, straw ... Meanwhile inside the plant system using diesel fuel for heating stoves are "retired". When asked pretext, managing director Le Van Tuan short answer: rubber company now drying by heat supply systems from biomass, better, faster and save too!
According to Tuan, long the company is still drying latex with diesel fuel. By using long-dated oil layer of dust in a thick layer combustion chamber, while the air flow in the oven active, causing peeling layers of dust flying into latex oil, affecting the quality. Therefore some rubber processing plants have used gas instead of oil and gas using colored latex better for the environment around the plant is less polluting ... But the fact that, for the oven the use of gas goes up and down temperatures, does not meet the instantaneous temperature of the drying process requirements. In addition, the temperature should be using gas-skilled workers on duty regularly. Therefore, biomass incinerators Dr Optics has become the first choice.
Nguyen Thanh Long, deputy director Factory Almighty confirmed, drying time, drying temperature between the furnace chamber provide heat by biomass and diesel is no different. Products attractive to the naked eye when the light side, dexterity, PRI ... Factory also took samples are checked three times for the different results are not drying oils; several criteria brightness, hardness parameters better facilitate exports. In particular, the use of biomass fuel heating company saves 20% costs compared to diesel drying.
Mastering technology
The father of the aforementioned biomass incinerators by Dr Nguyen Thanh Quang said the incinerator study state that he has carried since 2009, so far lost 3 more years of improvement and perfection. The use of biomass to provide heat drying, steaming at the factory in Vietnam is not strange. He himself has provided nearly 100 systems use heat from biomass plants and factories in the country. However, this is the first technology uses heat from biomass in drying rubber substitute diesel oil, gas in Vietnam.
According to Dr. Quang, the most difficult of the heat supplied by biomass is the right temperature, and stability are drying chamber. The time temperature in the drying chamber provides factory Almighty always stable at 1180C and automatically adjusts the temperature to stabilize. In other words, Dr. Quang has mastered the technology of biomass furnace and the temperature can be adjusted up or down according to the requirements of the job, the drying chamber, steam required for the product.
Now Dr Optics has formed business investment, sales operation providing heat for the plant or enterprise. This creates conditions for the plant to focus more on production of their expertise, reduce labor cost of the incinerator operation. And he assured fuel costs were also lower compared with the drying oil, gas, coal ... It is known that, prior to the effectiveness of latex drying of biomass, the company has expanded Almighty processing facility using biomass incinerator. With the drying up possibilities to thousands of tons of latex per year estimate now has billions to save fuel.
