Gasifier for crumb rubber drying Ideal Crumb Rubber Factory Sreekrishnapuram, Mannarkkad
Present Scenario in operation Optimisation of working results • Increase in Productivity. • Reduction in cost of Production. • Reduction in waste. Cost components • Raw Material cost - Not controllable • Cost of drying the rubber • Cost of Electrical energy • Other costs of wages, Maintenance etc.
Type of drier : Continuous trolley type tunnel dryer Fuel Consumption : 22 lts / Hr of HSD or SKO Specific fuel consumption : 36.6 Lts per Ton of crumb rubber Average fuel cost : Rs. 18 per Ltr Cost of operation of dryer : Rs.396 /hour of operation Rs.659/- per ton of rubber dried Fuel cost reduction in the drier was the primary objective to reduce the overall cost of final product Drier Cost Component
Process towards cost reduction • Non conventional energy ? • Consultant in the area? • Seminars by MNES / Agencies • Manufacturers of gasifier • Site Visits • Technology provider
Analysis of technology • Economy of operation. • Safety of installation as well as people working. • Ease of Maintenance. • Trouble free performance. • Continuous operation. • Lower down time for maintenance. • Low emission of tar or any other pollutants. After visit to IISc, Bangalore and various installations the order was placed on Bioresidue Energy Technology (P) Ltd.
Positive features we noticed • Flame trap to arrest flame flash back. • PP valves to ensure long and trouble free operation. • Brick lined inner and SS construction. • Servicing platforms to facilitate easy servicing. • Audiovisual alarms for critical parameters. • Oxygen sensor-Offline to ensure safety of oxygen ingress. • Screw conveyor for ash removal & Biomass flexibility. • Technological back up from the premier institution Indian Institute of Science,Bangalore
Maintenance of the gasifier Total hours of operation : 5000 Hours Total No. of stoppages : 6 Continuous operation : Up to 1250 hours Replaced components : Air nozzles Cost of maintenance : Rs.28,300/- till date Post supply additions : Flame failure system Timers for screw operation Post supply replacements : Valve – 1 No. Cost of maintenance : Rs. 5=66 per hour
Economics of operation Operation of the gasifier : 5000 Hours (98% up time) Average cost of biomass : Rs. 2=50 per kg Biomass consumed : 347279 kgs Fuel oil replaced : 109846 lts HSD Cost (W/O Gasifier) : Rs. 19,77,228 Biomass Cost : Rs. 8,68,198 Additional power cost : Rs. 79,888 Net Saving : Rs. 10,29,143 Savings as percentage : 52%
