Mantenimiento y puesta en marcha del sistema de conducción y filtración de gas del gasificador tipo downdraft de la Facultad de Mecánica

Abstract

The maintenance and launch of the conduction and filtration system of the downdraft type gasifier at Mechanics Faculty was carried out in this Curricular Integration Work, First, a technical analysis of the initial situation was carried out where the functionality, the current state of the sub-systems and their respective components were identified. The information obtained was used to establish an action plan with adequate restoration or substitution activities according to the detected needs. It highlights the implementation of an electrical system whose purpose is to supply energy to various circuits and especially to the control panels and instrumentation of the biogas generation area. Subsequently, the coding and inventory were developed considering the recommendations of ISO 14224:2016 standard. Then, each sub-systems was enabled for the subsequent launch of the gasifier that begins by obtaining the synthesis gas in the reactor. , to then go to the conduction and filtration system that is in charge of conditioning the gaseous fluid. In addition, a preventive maintenance plan was developed based on the experience acquired in this technical project. Through the filters and heat exchanger, it was possible to condition the fluid, freeing it, above all, of tar, impurities and solid particles in such a way that a cleaner gas was obtained in the end. For future research work that can give it an energetic application. It is worth mentioning that to establish a utility is necessary to carry out a study on the systems requirements to be implemented and the gas composition reached.
