Exergy analysis of Eregli sugar factory

Abstract

Progressive decline in world energy resources, rising costs, on behalf of the various studies has led businesses to use energy resources efficiently. This work is at the top of the exergy analysis. In this study, using data from Eregli Sugar Factory 2010–2011 campaign year for sugar production processes, the first law of thermodynamics (energy analysis) and analysis of these condlaw (exergy analysis) were conducted. Depending on there sults of this analysis of the sugar production process yields the first and these cond law is calculated. Obtained in the light of the secalculation stoin crease theen ergy efficiency of the plant, was tetoprovide energy to gainth embackand give direction to the development of new technologies Eregli Sugar Factory recommendations were made.

A comparative evaluation of energetic and exergetic performance parameters in syrup purification and evaporation lines

“…They concluded that by minimizing the energy loss and temperature change in heat transfer, the irreversibility of the process is reduced, and leads to an increase in the efficiency of sugar production (Bayrak et al, 2003). The lowest exergy efficiency after the steam production line was related to the evaporation line (Sahin et al, 2015).…”

“…Şahin et al (2010) conducted research work on an old sugar plant in Turkey to renovate the plant and achieved similar results to those obtained by Bayrak et al Şahin et al investigated syrup production lines, clarification, evaporation, crystallization, and steam production as an open thermodynamic system and in steady state from the perspective of analyzing the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The lowest exergy efficiency after the steam production line was related to the evaporation line (Sahin et al, 2015).…”
