An energy-saving scheme for the production of candied carrots has been developed. The developed scheme includes: washing of raw materials with 1 % NaHCO3 solution, reduction of water consumption for blanching, reduction of syrup consumption for saturation of raw materials with sugar. A new drying technology is introduced: candied fruits are dried in a variable temperature mode, namely: in the initial stages with a heat agent at a temperature of 70 °C, at the final stage – with a heat agent at a temperature of 20 °C. The process of modeling the traditional and energy-saving scheme of candied carrot production in the universal simulation software ChemCad is carried out. The simulation results are analyzed. It is proved that the total energy efficiency of the implemented technology is 340.4 MJ / h or 354.6 kJ / kg of finished product.

The rapid rate use of fossil fuels globally results in many environmental problems. The adoption of energy efficient technology has the potential to substantially reduce the amount of energy used in buildings. This paper discuses the energy saving measures and simulation for a six-floor library building, University of Surabaya, Indonesia. Simulation was carried out using the Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiency (EDGE) simulation software. The results of simulation showed that 53% of energy efficiency can be reached, without lowering of the building comfort, by applying of four measures at the same time are daylight photoelectric sensors for internal spaces (OFE29), radiant cooling and heating system (OFE16), higher thermal performance glass (OFE8), and external shading devices (OFE4).

Dryers are used for removal of moisture from an raw materials (such as effluent) to form a dried solids as per the requirements. For removal of the moisture, energy requirement is huge. Therefore, in this paper, methodology for heat recovery in one of the type of dryers as spray dryers is developed, which is simple and easy to apply. The proposed methodology is illustrated with the help of an example taken from literature. It is observed that the indirect heat recovery method could save energy maximum up to 82 % as compared to literature and 41 % higher than without heat recovery. Keywords: Spray dryer, pinch analysis, heat recovery, effluent drying, energy saving

Outdated technologies in drying processes can lead to iПеrrational use of energy, as a consequence, high energy consumption and increased energy consumption. Therefore, the issues of energy saving and energy efficiency are the most important tasks to be solved. Nowadays, energy saving and energy efficiency are also part of the environmental problem. Ukraine, which has a unique geographical position for Europe, is fully supplied with natural resources, - one of the countries where there is inefficient use of energy resources. One of the energy-consuming areas of vegetable processing is drying. In the modern world, the issue of energy efficiency of drying methods is one of the most relevant areas of research. Convective drying of vegetable raw materials requires a rational use of regime parameters of the process corresponding to the biochemical properties of the processed object. The primary objectives of this area of processing of vegetable raw materials are to reduce energy costs and ensure high quality characteristics of the final product. This article presents the developed heat-technology for obtaining phytoestrogenic powder from soybeans and spinach. Which includes 3 stages: preliminary preparation of raw materials for drying; drying of thermolabile vegetable raw materials; dispersion and packaging of the obtained phytoestrogenic powder. As a result of previously conducted comprehensive research, it was found that the use of heat technology reduces energy costs at the stage of preparation of raw materials through the improvement of existing hydrothermal treatment of soybeans, as well as energy savings of 21% through the use of developed step modes. Studies of the qualitative characteristics of the obtained phytoestrogenic powder confirm the high quality of the final product.

Purpose – This paper reports on the experimentation of an integrated manufacturing and building model to improve energy efficiency. Traditionally, manufacturing and building-facilities engineers work independently, with their own performance objectives, methods and software support. However, with progresses in resource reduction, advances have become more challenging. Further opportunities for energy efficiency require an expansion of scope across the functional boundaries of facility, utility and manufacturing assets. Design/methodology/approach – The design of methods that provide guidance on factory modelling is inductive. The literature review outlines techniques for the simulation of energy efficiency in manufacturing, utility and facility assets. It demonstrates that detailed guidance for modelling across these domains is sparse. Therefore, five experiments are undertaken in an integrated manufacturing, utility and facility simulation software IES < VE > . These evaluate the impact of time-step granularity on the modelling of a paint shop process. Findings – Experimentation demonstrates that time-step granularity can have a significant impact on simulation model results quality. Linear deterioration in results can be assumed from time intervals of 10 minutes and beyond. Therefore, an appropriate logging interval, and time-step granularity should be chosen during the data composition process. Time-step granularity is vital factor in the modelling process, impacting the quality of simulation results produced. Practical implications – This work supports progress towards sustainable factories by understanding the impact of time-step granularity on data composition, modelling, and on the quality of simulation results. Better understanding of this granularity factor will guide engineers to use an appropriate level of data and understand the impact of the choices they are making. Originality/value – This paper reports on the use of simulation modelling tool that links manufacturing, utilities and facilities domains, enabling their joint analysis to reduce factory resource consumption. Currently, there are few available tools to link these areas together; hence, there is little or no understanding of how such combined factory analysis should be conducted to assess and reduce factory resource consumption.

The building energy consumption simulation software DeST is used to analyze the effects of fixed shading over external window on energy consumption and efficiency, on the base of a residential building in Shanghai. The simulation results show that the fixed shading over south window has little effect on the overall energy saving of residential building. For east and west external window, if window area is not very large and its shading performance is better, the effect of fixed shading installation on energy saving is not obvious. On the contrary, if its area is large and its shading performance is ordinary, the effect is remarkable. Furthermore, when room ventilation capacity is poor, the effect of energy saving by fixed shading installation is more prominent.
