Hehe, 80 degrees seems a bit high! It also depends on your configuration; if the fan is driven by a turbine, the amount required will be much less.
I heard that some factories seem to consume over 10 units of electricity, with the maximum amount not seeming to exceed 17 units; the fans are driven by steam. I’m not sure if this is true
The accounting methods are different. Some circulating water systems are part of the utility infrastructure; steam turbine power generation does not fall under any specific workshop. Additionally, fans driven by turbines have their electricity consumption not taken into account. However, with such low electricity consumption, the scale of such systems cannot be small.
The sulfuric acid system is equipped with waste heat power generation; an electricity consumption of over 10 kWh can be achieved, and with proper management, there will be a surplus for internal use.
The advanced value for power consumption per ton of sulfuric acid produced is 60 kWh; with low-temperature conditions, it is around 55 kWh. To produce 1 ton of 98% acid, 216 kg of water is required; however, due to the moisture present in the air, the actual amount of water added is less than that.
Thank you all, gentlemen! :):):):):):):):):):):):), The 450KW, 10000V motor produces a periodic abnormal noise at low load – what could be the cause?
About 70 kWh of electricity is consumed per ton of acid, including the energy needed for power generation, and 220 kilograms of water must be added.
More or less; the fans in our company use turbines, with a power consumption of around 14 kWh per unit
