Evaluation of the energy consumption required for the desolventization of 100 kg of rapeseed meal.
Solvent in 100 kg of marc (kg) | Solvent for 100 kg of meal (kg) | Enthalpy of vaporisation of the solvent (kJ/100 kg) | Enthalpy of the steam in vapours (kJ/100 kg) | Sensible heat (kJ/100 kg) | Total heat (kJ/100 kg) | Total energy variation vs. hexane | Mass water condensed kg/100 kg | Water content of the meal | |
