International Solar Food Processing Conference 2009 Parabolic Solar Concentrators for Cooking and Food Processing Deepak Gadhia Gadhia Solar Energy Systems Pvt. Ltd. Plot No 86, Old GIDC Gundlav, , Valsad,396035, Gujarat el. Tel. 0091-9825117353, Fax. 0091-2632-236703,: Email: gadhiasolarahoo.co.in Webpage: www.gadhiasolarenergy.com Topic: Solar food processing and back-up systems, how to ensure sustainable energy supply 1. Introduction : In our presentation, we would like to share our 20 years experience in development of Solar Concentrators Technology in India, on our return from Germany in 1985. We availed of technology from Austria, Germany and Switzerland and with the help and collaboration of the inventors, developed upon it. based on inputs and feedback from users the technology was further improved upon to make it user friendly. 2. Summary : Over the years we have indigenised and commercialised the technology. To date, we have manufactured, supplied and installed solar cooking systems of various sizes, ranging from domestic- to community- to institutional-cooking systems, including the World’s largest solar steam cooking system at Tirupati Temple and the World’s highest solar steam cooking at Leh, Ladakh for the Indian Army. Solar concentrators can also be used for various other applications like • Solar Food Processing for value addition of agricultural produce • Solar Drying of agricultural produce. All these will help farming communities and empower them, after all 70% of India still lives in villages. Solar concentrators reduce carbon dioxide emissions substantially and so qualify for CDM. Kyoto Protocol Treaty and CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) can be tapped to finance such “Smoke-free Villages” projects, making it a Win-Win Situation for both developed and developing countries and Planet Earth Our Only HOME. Concrete examples will be given using a Power Point Presentation. 38
International Solar Food Processing Conference 2009 Development and Application of Solar Cooker in China Chen Xiaofu & Han Tingcun China Association of Rural Energy Industry chxiaofu@126.com w13643@yahoo.com Abstract Striking progress and significant achievement has been made in Chinese Solar Cooker (SC) industry, especially in designing theory, material technology, technical standard and industrial production, dissemination and sales service after more than 30 years’ research and promotion. During this period it has experienced the change from independent research to national cooperation and the systematic study, from laboratory experiment to industrial production, and from governmental support to semi-commercialization. Currently, with a total number of more than one million sets, China has been the No. 1 in promoting SCs in the world. And the following will give the general review over the past 30 years. 39
