1. 1. Assessment of the integration of solar heat power into food drying processes

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Charalampos Psilopoulos; [2023]
   Keywords : Sustainable; sustainability; co2 reduction; feasibility; solar thermal; direct steam generation; drying; food industry; scope 1 emissions; sdg; sustainable development goals; spray drying; drum drying; powder; food; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The long-lasting usage of fossil fuels has brought its negative impact on the planet and thus the society is turning towards more environmentally sustainable solutions in every aspect of life. This master’s thesis discusses the novel topic of integrating concentrated solar thermal collectors, which directly produce steam, to drying processes in the food industry, which is proven to currently emit significant amounts of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs).

3. 2. Integration of solar thermal collectors in the dairy industry: A techno-economic assessment : A case study of Dubai

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Author : Hassim Shah; [2021]
   Keywords : Solar thermal; parabolic trough collector; levelized cost of heat; integration schemes;

   Abstract : A predominant amount of energy needed in the industrial sector is in the form of heat. A significant number of industries in the world still relies on fossil fuels for meeting their heat requirements. READ MORE

4. 3. Techno-economic Analysis and Market Potential Study of Solar Heat in Industrial Processes : A Fresnel Direct Steam Generation case study

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Guillermo de Santos López; [2021]
   Keywords : Solar heat in industrial processes; techno-economic analysis; market potential; direct steam generation; Fresnel technology;

   Abstract : The industrial sector not only has a big contribution to global emissions but also a low share of renewable energy for heat demand. Knowing that most of the energy consumption in industry is heat and that half of it is at medium-low temperature (below 400 ºC), it is a great market for the integration of solar thermal technologies.
