Abstract

Thermal desorption Unit been a vital equipment with complex applications in the sections of waste and minerals treatments, suffers intensively in the managerial section as a whole. This paves a way towards the aim of this research work which covers the type of the impact of Total Quality maintenance electric motor parts on the Operation of the Thermal Desorption Unit [TDUs] using that of the Halden Nigeria Limited, located within Port Harcourt zones of Nigeria as a case study. In this research work Microsoft Excel version 2019 was used as the data analyses tool, and the descriptive plots are mainly bar charts for easier presentation and interpretation of results. Various methods used in this work are mainly mathematical evaluations and quality models developed as management evaluation models satisfactory to the achievements of the various determinable variables for the evaluation of the impact of Total Quality Maintenance of electric motor parts on the Operation of the Thermal Desorption Unit [TDUs]. The calculated values of the system Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) and Mean Time between Failures (MTBF) have a significant impact on the reliability of the systems under study (TDUs), Failure Rate, Repair Rate, Availability (A), Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), Cost Implementation, Reliability of Equipment [ROE] determined respectively as the total evaluations of the 3-4-3 sub-units of the TDU, correlatively to other none calculative factors which are independent to the calculative variables but still control the reliability of the system as a driving force of the calculative variables. Via the results and graphical descriptions it was noticed that the Electric Motor [EM] over the studied period of six years [2016-2021] with a total running time in operation of  hours and mean time between failures of 4043.0769 hours, has the highest MTBF which shows a better reliability index, when compared to the Air lock system [AL] and Solenoid Motor [SM] units of the TDUs, stands so clearly defined that the unit has higher life expanses and so cannot be easily malfunctioned or get spoiled when utilized as compared to the AL and SM units also in the case of mean repair rate, Electric Motor [EM] within same studied period has the mean repair rate of 336 failure/hours, which is the highest when compared, this still makes it  a better quality unit of the TDUs that has less tendency of getting damaged during used.
