Propuesta de reconversión energética para la empresa “Plásticos P & C“ en el proceso de inyección para la fabricación de accesorios de PVC de uso sanitario.

Abstract

The objective of the project carried out is the development of an energy efficiency proposal applied to the company that produces PVC sanitary accessories "Plásticos P & C" company located in the Carvajal neighborhood in the city of Bogotá. An initial diagnosis of the current energy consumption of the company was carried out during a period of 6 months, for which the identification of the stage or process that is revealing a significant energy consumption was taken into account. According to the initial diagnosis, it was identified that the activity or injection process represents a high energy consumption with respect to the other processes, taking into account the identification of the process, the estimates of monthly energy consumption were made, as well as the costs of consumption, and identification of techniques or technologies applied in the injection of PVC, due to the important contribution that affects this process to the high energy consumption with respect to the other processes that are developed within the company . Therefore, the diagnosis was made, a series of technical modifications were proposed, which showed a 36% reduction in energy consumption, which could additionally be related to an amount of CO 2 Tons avoided by implementing the proposal.
