Abstract
GAINZA-DELGADO, Yarilys; MAGANA HAYNES, María Elena; ROJAS VARGAS, Armando and SANCHEZ GUILLEN, Crispin. Determination of the Index of Consumption of Petroleum of the Calcining Kiln of the Ernesto Che Guevara Commander Undertaking. RTQ [online]. 2016, vol.36, n.3, pp. 342-351. ISSN 2224-6185.
This work presents the results obtained in carrying out the mass and energy balances in the calcining kiln of the company commander Ernesto Che Guevara, for determining the consumption index of petroleum used for obtaining nickel oxide through thermal decomposition of the basic nickel carbonate. It was shown that for a production of basic nickel carbonate of 12 t / h with 69% moisture, it is necessary to feed about 1100 kg / h of fuel, for an consumption index of 91.67 kg of fuel per ton of load.
Keywords : calcining; nickel oxide; basic carbonate of nickel.
