MINERAL OBSORPTION SYSTEM
Up to 1 m3 of air enters the extractor with each 1 m3 of material
plant capacity 600 tpd
plant capacity in tph 25 tph
pellet density 0.5 ton/m3
Pellet Volume / hour 50 m3/hour
therefore air entering the extractor per hour 50 m3/hour
Service factor 1
venting fan size in m3/hour 50 m3/hour
The noncondensable vapours exiting the vent condenser pass on to the mineral oil absorption system at 40 Degree Celcius and contains 2 kg hexane vapour and 1 kg air
Vent gas generally contains less than 10 g solvent per 1 m3 of vented air
40 degree celcius
inlet mineral oil temperature 30 degree celcius
inlet mineral oil MV content .1 to .4 %
Outlet Mineral Oil Temperature 31
outlet mineral oil MV content 3.0 to 5.0 %
hexane load in Vent Gas 0.6 kg
total load per hour 30 kg hexane
Considered outlet mineral oil MV content 2.00 %
rotation of mineral oil 1500 litre / hour
inlet noncondensable vapours temperature ( exiting the vent condenser
and passed on to the mineral oil absorption system)
