This paper introduces a new and comprehensive study on cost optimization of abrasive blasting systems. In the study, the effects of many parameters such as nozzle diameter, air pressure, efficiency, cost components as well as the effect of the nozzle wear on the cleaning cost were investigated. A new model for calculation of the optimal exchanged nozzle diameter (called “optimal diameter”) was proposed. With “optimal diameter” a new and effective way of using and making blasting nozzles was proposed and both the cleaning cost and the cleaning time can be reduced significantly.

The blasting technique has been broadly utilized to prepare new surfaces for painting, engraving, etc., in industry. In fact, the minimization of the cleaning cost system is essential. However, the knowledge of this technique in terms of optimization has been poor so far. The aim of this study is to find the optimum replaced boron carbide nozzle diameter for the abrasive blasting system. The basis of the study is to find the replaced nozzle diameter to minimize the cost of the blasting system. Seven main parameters are adopted for examining their influences on the response and the optimum replaced nozzle diameter. The design of experiment (DOE) technique is utilized by using Minitab@19. The results reveal that the initial nozzle diameter has the strongest impact on the optimum replaced nozzle diameter. Furthermore, the proposed regression model has been found to be entirely insistent to the experiments. The utilization of this model can provide an effective way to simplify the calculation of the optimum initial nozzle diameter for boron carbide.

This paper introduces a study on a multi-objective optimization problem of abrasive blasting systems. The aim of the study is to find the optimum exchanged diameter of boron carbide nozzles. In the study, the effects of several parameters such as the maximum nozzle diameter, the nozzle wear and the cost components on the optimum initial nozzle diameter were taken into account. From the study, a regression model for determination of the optimum initial diameter of boron carbide nozzles was introduced.

This paper presents a new study on profit optimization of abrasive blasting systems. In the study, the effects of many parameters such as the air pressure, the initial nozzle diameter, the cost components and the nozzle wear on the profit rate were investigated. Based on the results of the optimization problem, regression models for determination of the optimal exchanged nozzle diameter in order to get the maximal profit rate were proposed. With “optimal diameter”, both the profit rate and the cleaning time can be reduced significantly.

This paper introduces a new study on cost optimization of steel shot blasting systems. In the study, the influences of blasting process parameters such as air pressure, nozzle diameter, cost components as well as the effect of the nozzle wear on the cleaning cost were investigated. For calculation of the optimum exchanged nozzle diameter (called optimum diameter) a regression model was proposed. By using this model, both cleaning cost and cleaning time can be reduced considerably.

Ketapang area is one of lower part or southern sub-province of West Kalimanatan Province, which is located geographically between 108o40’ and 111o20’ in Longitude and between 0o20’ and 3o04’ in Latitude. This area has various of industrial mineral resources, for example quartz sand. Quartz sand or also calledwith white sand is the reasult of rock weathering that contents main mineral, such as quartz, and felsdpar. Then, the result of weathering is cleaned and transported by water or wind and deposited in the stream side, lake or sea. In this paper will bedescribed concerning to locations, characteristics, and usages of quratz sand in Ketapang area, West Kalimantan Province. Based on chemical or laboratory analysis and interpretation, the quartz sands can be used as glass industry, cement industry material, and moulding industry.
