vainilla curada, diseño de planta agroindustrial, factibilidad económica, sostenibilidadResumen
El curado de las vainas de vainilla constituye una etapa crítica que define la calidad, el aroma y el valor comercial del producto. En Ecuador no existen referencias de una planta agroindustrial diseñada integralmente para su ejecución bajo condiciones controladas. El objetivo es diseñar una planta industrial para el curado de vainilla, para ello, se aplicó una metodología modificada que integra selección de tecnología, estimación de capacidad, balance de materia y energía simulado en SuperPro Designer, evaluación económica, distribución de planta mediante la metodología SLP con apoyo de inteligencia artificial (IA) y visualización del modelo tridimensional mediante realidad aumentada (RA). Se obtuvo un diseño técnicamente viable con una capacidad instalada de 320 kg por ciclo, ubicado en la parroquia Veracruz, provincia de Pastaza. La evaluación económica evidenció condiciones favorables con un VAN de 26 000 USD, una TIR de 13,20 %, un Payback de 5,42 años, un ROI de 18,44 % y un margen bruto de 27,82 %, mientras que el proceso mostró un bajo impacto ambiental al no generar residuos sólidos. La distribución de planta evaluada mediante SLP con apoyo de IA en tres iteraciones permitió eliminar inconsistencias de identificación y simbología, validación que fue complementada mediante la visualización en RA del modelo tridimensional.
