Eficiência energética em uma indústria madeireira

In wood processing industries, which use electrical equipment in the production process, in most cases these are badly scaled or operate under inadequate conditions, resulting directly in industrial energy efficiency, which proves important because besides having technological innovation, also with practices and policies, aims to decrease power consumption. So in a wiring project should take into account the variables that influence energy efficiency. Thus this work has been reviewed and subsequently calculated some of these variables, such as active power, power factor and demand for the entire industry (global) and also for specific equipment, the chipper. The network analysis was performed in a wood processing industry in the city of Taquarivaí - SP, and evaluated these variables with a network analyzer and also by analysis on energy bills, which were found in both analysis levels below those found in literature. These factors are due to poor design, improper use, storage of equipment or even by characteristic of the production process, ie, the equipment running on empty because of the volatility of production

Comportamento do fator de potência de uma serra de fita vertical e de um picador em uma serraria

This work aims to present the electrical behavior of two mechanical processing equipment of wood, the saw vertical tape and the wood chipper. Their characteristics in real operating conditions and the electrical behavior of devices in terms of energy efficiency is shown through the study of individual power factor are presented in this study. It was observed that both devices operate unloaded for some intervals of time and this contributes to a low power factor. It is concluded that improved production planning and better preparation of the operators in the operations of sawing wood, in order to improve the power factor in sawmills is necessary.
