Optimization of Energy Consumption of the refining process to obtaining of pulp mixture

Abstract

In this work is developed a Methodology for the Optimization of Energy Consumption of the refining process to obtaining of pulps, on the base of the denominated Refinement of the Sequential type that allows to adjust, with the minimum energy cost, the quality of the mixture of the pulps for a certain type of paper. The Method of Design of Experiments of Simple Lattice is used, for studies of mixtures of three or but components with a reduced one number of experiments and keeping in mind the necessary restrictions of the process and qualityof the product. It is applied in this case for a type of pulp of waste paper. It is demonstrated that alone it is necessary to refine fractions of the pulp to process until a suitable degree to obtain a good mixture that allows to reach alone the degree of necessary development of properties for their reuse and to avoid that it is drained too much
