Energy Evaluation of ¨Rómulo Padrón¨ Feed Factory Based on the General Consumption of the Plant
Main Article Content
Abstract
The production of concentrated foods with high-energy efficiency indicators is currently a challenge in Cuba. Therefore, in this research, the objective is to carry out an energy evaluation of ¨Rómulo Padrón¨ Feed Factory based on the general consumption of the plant. For this, a diagnosis of the factory is carried out, the main tools that evaluate energy efficiency in this type of industry are determined and an improvement plan is presented. The results show average monthly values of production, energy consumed and the consumption index of 4589.4 t; 35,117 kWh and 7.56 kWh/t, and 108.13 t daily for the month of March; 802.93 kWh and 7.42 kWh/t, respectively. In addition, it was determined an unstable behavior of the energy consumed based on production (monthly and daily), with correlation coefficient values of 0.88 and 0.81, respectively.
