Abstract

Furnace Evaporator (FE) is an instrument that has two (2) functions as a furnace and evaporation, in an effort to increase the capacity of the material both activities are needed. The Furnace Evaporator was first patented by Pierce, James Louis, in 1917, using an energy source from gas, used for processing natural materials. This Furnace Evaporator (FE) is designed to use a heat energy source (heater) from electricity, to later become a prototype FE with a working temperature of 50°C-900C̊, and heat control based on Programmable Logic Control (PLC). The FE prototype has two horizontal and vertical doors, with a combustion chamber area of about 36 cm3. Prototype has accuracy in generating heat, the temperature value on the HMI monitor screen when compared to a measuring instrument has a chi square (R2) value of 0.995. Operational testing was carried out in three (3) conditions, namely when the prototype hood was closed (C1), half closed (C2) and open (C3), the results had different temperature resolution responses, namely, 2.14 V/s, 1.25 V/ s and 0.83 V/s. If the three parameters are combined, they have a non-linear relationship with a chi square (R2) value of 0.9939, which means that they are significantly related.
