Presentation Title: Energy Efficiency application to modernise pneumatic conveying in bulk solids industry.
Abstract
It is possible to save energy, money and the environment at the same time if we create solutions to reduce energy waste. The new product and process for pneumatic conveying systems proposed in this work, allow operating an optimized system with an energy efficient device by acting mainly on two input variables. The system is controlled by a PLC, performing logical, sequential and timed tasks for plant control. The PLC connects to a HMI and a SCADA, which are the means of interaction with the process operator, by means of a graphical environment interface. The same methodology can be explored to improve the energy efficiency of different pneumatic conveying systems.
