The textile sector, an important economic driving force in Antioquia, Colombia, uses great quantities of thermal energy mainly produced by coal combustion, which holds enormous potential for recovery. One of the most common processes in a textile plant is heat setting, which uses a significant amount of thermal energy to adjust the properties of fabrics, such as shrinking, stiffness, pull strength, width, and stretching. In this study, we calculate the mass and energy balances of a stenter and propose a system to recover the energy available in its exhaust gases. The energy recovery potential in this heat setting process is 800.97 kW, which represents 87.2% of the total input energy. Additionally, we evaluate different heat exchangers to recover the available heat and present criteria to select them. Finally, thermosyphons, whose thermal efficiency was theoretically determined here, offer a promising alternative for heat recovery from actual stenters.
El sector textil, un importante motor económico de Antioquia, Colombia, usa grandes cantidades de energía térmica, principalmente producida por la combustión de carbón y tiene un enorme potencial de recuperación. Uno de los procesos en una planta textil es el termofijado, el cual usa una cantidad significativa de energía térmica para ajustar las propiedades de la tela, tales como encogimiento, rigidez, fuerza de tracción, ancho y estiramiento. En este estudio, se realizó el balance de masa y energía de una termofijadora y se propuso un sistema para recuperar la energía en sus gases de escape. El potencial de recuperación de energía en el proceso de termofijado fue de 800,97 kW, representando 87,2% de la energía total de entrada. Adicionalmente, se evaluaron diferentes opciones de intercambiadores de calor. Finalmente, los termosifones, cuya eficiencia térmica se determinó teóricamente, ofrecen una alternativa viable para la recuperación de calor de las termofijadoras.
