Energy Conservation through Automatic Control in Sugarcane Industry  A Case Study

Ing. Cesca, M.R. and Ing. Demo, H.R.  1989.  A global strategy for the automatic control of the energy balance in a particular sugar mill is proposed and tested via simulation. Potential savings are calculated with the aid of a static mathematical model, as a function of imbibition ratio, fuel/air ratio in the boilers, syrup concentration and water incorporated during vacuum pan operation.
