METODOLOGÍA PARA LA RECONVERSIÓN EN LAS INSTALACIONES EN LA INDUSTRIA DE PROCESOS CONSIDERANDO LA INCORPORACIÓN DE LA PRODUCCION DE BIOCOMBUSTIBLES

Abstract

Given the current conditions of Latin American Economy, scientific results have shown a marked interest not only to find out variation effects on raw material, but also to find out technologic-energetic-economic efficiency of the  processes. They have also tried to asses alternatives so as to intensify and revamp industrial plants. These plants will be supposed to match the requirements and current availabilities of raw material and energy carriers.

The work proposes a methodology for revamp in the industry of processes starting from the incorporation of new energy and environmentally efficient productions, like it is the case of study of the bioetanol production and hydrogen for the electricity generation with fuel cells.

The developed methodology considers process integration, the moral depreciation and the technological reliability of the equipment of chemical industry, what will allow perfecting the studies of use of capacities installed in the industry of the sugar and its derived, as well as in the new facilities that are projected.
