Wool Carbonization with an Energy-Efficient Drying Process

ABSTRACT

The article presents methods of wool carbonization and describes the parameters of the individual stages of the technological processes. The wool parameters were also tested before and after the carbonization process. Particular attention was paid to the energy-saving drying process of loose wool in the carbonization process. The energy efficiency of drying is affected by such parameters as: drying rate and efficiency, heat consumption per unit and energy efficiency of the dryer. There are also conditions, e.g. ambient humidity and evenness of wool moisture and its moisture after centrifugation. High degree of water removal substantially decreases the power consumption during the process of drying. It was found that the energy-efficient process of drying loose wool is mainly influenced by the design of the dryer enabling the achievement of high economic and efficiency parameters.

摘要
