9. Energetic Analysis of the LUBNOR Asphalt Plant


Period:

2003 / 2004


Description:

The main objective of this project is to analyze and improve energy efficiency in the LUBNOR (PETROBRAS) asphalt plant. The LUBNOR asphalt plant was studied in order to identify hot and cold thermal energy flows with thermal reutilization potential, as well as to propose procedures and/or modifications which could sensively reduce costs. In addition, suggestions of equipment development have also been made in order to improve energetic efficiency.
