Análisis comparativo de combustibles Diésel y GLP para la generación de vapor mediante costo operativo en una planta productora de alimento balanceado.

Abstract

By performing the comparative analysis of diesel and LPG fuels for steam generation through operating cost in a feed production plant by means of the observational descriptive methodology where it begins by determining the current price of the fuels under study, properties, chemical composition, efficiency in boilers that are the steam generating machines, benefits of using diesel and LPG, energy reduction with respect to its use, reduction of CO2 emissions and with quantifiable information through the treatment of information coming from the balancing industry, information of steam quantity (m3) produced by the use of diesel and LPG according to tons produced, as well as its operative costs. An analysis of the production costs of balancing with respect to steam generation and maintenance costs of the last twelve months of production is presented, determining that the use of LPG fuel is the best option for the boilers of the Balancing Industry.
