Obiettivo
THE OBJECTIVE OF RESEARCH CARRIED OUT BY RIBER, ITALY IS TO DEVELOP A WASHING MACHINE WHICH OPERATES AT LOW TEMPERATURES. DURING THE WASHING PROCESS, ACTIVE OXYGEN IS NORMALLY PRODUCED FROM PERBORATES (A DETERGENT COMPONENT). IN ORDER TO OBTAIN SUFFICIENT OXYGEN, TEMPERATURES OF OVER 60 DEGREES C ARE REQUIRED FOR A CERTAIN PERIOD. IN THIS PROJECT OXYGEN IS PRODUCED FROM THE WASHING WATER BY ELECTROLYSIS AT ROOM TEMPERATURES. THIS ALLOWS BLEACHING DURING PRE-WASHING AT ROOM TEMPERATURES AND WASHING AT LOWER TEMPERATURES WITH THE SAME EFFICIENCY. A WASHING MACHINE HAS BEEN BUILT WHERE PREWASHING OCCURS WITH AN ELECTROLYSER AND IS FOLLOWED BY WASHING BETWEEN 40 - 90 DEGREES C. AS COMPARED WITH TRADITIONAL WASHING, ENERGY SAVINGS OF 25 - 50 % ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE NEW WASHING MACHINE AND THE WASHING RESULTS ARE GENERALLY BETTER. THE PAYBACK TIME OF THE EXTRA INVESTMENTS IS O,5 YEARS.
