...these are approximate "back of napkin" calculations to get a feel for needed condenser capacity to process 20 tons per day..... MorningLightMountain Share Thursday, September 30, 2010 4:47:00 PM Re: Steady_T post# 71576 Post # of 73243 I calculate that roughly 800K-1M BTU/hr would be needed to heat 20 tons of plastic by 500 deg C during one day, with no losses figured into that.... to remove the same heat would require cooling capacity of about 80 ice-tons.......that capacity is about what 25 large homes would use in the dead of summer for air-conditioning, as a comparison...... PS: note, these are approximate "back of napkin" calculations to get a feel for needed condenser capacity to process 20 tons per day......as usual, my guesstimate sitting out here....but it should give a rough idea of the condenser specs needed..... siliconinvestor.com The stack test confirmed that the P2O processor emissions are below maximum emissions allowed under a NYDEC simple air permit. Because of these results, the Company believes it will not need to construct any filters, oxidizers or scrubbers for the stack, which is directly connected to the processor through a condenser to cool the air. siliconinvestor.com JohnBordynuik \| October 17, 2010 Our p2o processor in September with 2 condensers. Video shot with my phone. youtube.com The stack test, which is a measure of emissions from the processor vent, was set up by CRA on August 16th and monitored by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation ("DEC"), and completed on August 17th.
