Описание: The book delves into the diverse possibilities of harnessing and utilizing solar energy within the agricultural sector. It presents a comprehensive examination of the fundamental principles of solar energy resources and technologies, with a focus on their application in agriculture. The book contains a total of 23 chapters, with the first two chapters offering an in-depth analysis of the current and future prospects of solar energy use in the agricultural sector of India. The subsequent eight chapters (Chapter No. 3-10) provide a solid foundation in the fundamental principles of solar photovoltaic and thermal technologies. The final 13 chapters (Chapter No. 11-23) explore the various applications of these technologies in different farm operations and post-harvest processing within the agricultural sector. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, stakeholders, entrepreneurs, and others seeking information on solar energy and its applications in agriculture.
Описание: Focuses on the various kinds of applications that solar energy can have in the field of micro irrigation. The book explores areas in which the solar energy can be applied and the technologies that can be run on solar power.
Описание: The solar photovoltaic (PV) system generates clean energy and eliminates the risk of environmental pollution from oil spills, contaminated soil and carbon dioxide emissions. This sourcebook provides information on the design, operation, inspection, troubleshooting and maintenance of solar PV pumping systems.
Описание: This report presents an approach to identify the market size of renewable energy technologies that have the potential to be deployed across the agrifood chains. Various applications of solar energy technologies are overviewed, including use in the milk and tea industries.
Описание: The world is on the verge of an unprecedented increase in the production and use of biofuels for transport. The combination of rising oil prices, issues of security, climate instability and pollution, deepening poverty in rural and agricultural areas, and a host of improved technologies, is propelling governments to enact powerful incentives for the use of these fuels, which is in turn sparking investment. Biofuels for Transport is a unique and comprehensive assessment of the opportunities and risks of the large-scale production of biofuels. The book demystifies complex questions and concerns, such as the ?food v. fuel? debate. Global in scope, it is further informed by five country studies from Brazil, China, Germany, India and Tanzania. The authors conclude that biofuels will play a significant role in our energy future, but warn that the large-scale use of biofuels carries risks that require focused and immediate policy initiatives. Published in association with BMELV, FNR and GTZ.
Описание: World population growth and the related increase in the demand for food and other goods has intensified agricultural production throughout the world. Some of today's technologies are characterized by relatively low productivity and high consumption of energy resources. The Handbook of Research on Energy-Saving Technologies for Environmentally-Friendly Agricultural Development is a comprehensive research publication that provides insight into new technologies that create efficient and environmentally-friendly energy potential sufficient for the organization of industrial and social-economic activity in rural areas. Highlighting a variety of topics such as economic development, renewable energy, and climate change, this book is ideal for agricultural business executives, engineers, scientists, environmentalists, entrepreneurs, academicians, researchers, students, and those working in the agro-industrial and housing and communal services sectors.
Описание: Given the interdisciplinary nature of the book`s subject matter, it will be of interest to social and natural scientists and researchers who engage in forestry and forestry-related disciplines. It has broader appeal to a global and non-academic audience, which can help advance policy discussions through more accessible language.
