TANNING UNIT FOR LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT COMPRISING A DRUM

摘要

A tanning unit comprises a drum (1), a separation device (20) between the tanning bath and the solid waste generated in use in the drum (1), an electronic control unit (2) and a plurality of sensors connected in data exchange with the control unit, in which the control unit (2) is connected in data exchange with the plurality of sensors including at least a flow sensor for the water entering the drum; a flow sensor for the water discharged from the drum; a meter of electrical power absorbed by the drum (1) and a solid waste weight sensor connected to a collection device (24) for the solid waste intercepted by the separation device (20); and is programmed to process the data received via the sensors and any other data received via a user interface or through data acquisition and to provide life cycle assessment (LCA) and / or life cycle cost (LCC) data.
