| Popis: | The level of energy consumption for the production of plastics is a variable that in recent years has gained great importance due to its environmental impact on energy rational use, and its representative cost for production. This paper contains a brief explanation of the importance of quantifying the energy consumption required for the production of plastic parts, as well as how to measure variables such as consumption fixed and variable, and determine the specific energy consumption for processing plants, for processes and equipment. Subsequently, it describes several studies about energy consumption rates relevant to the plastics industry in Colombia and different countries that count large polymer processing plants. This paper is made in order to provide a basic reference material to researchers interested in this topic. |
