Annually, India expends a staggering 17,80,000 kilo litres of furnace oil or equivalent fossil fuels, which accounts for 60% of the country’s industrial thermal energy requirement. In light of the rapidly escalating fuel costs, SunBest’s pioneering Solar Air Heating technology presents an apt and optimal solution to counter this significant predicament.
The heart of this innovation is our patented solar technology, which harnesses the Sun’s radiation to generate hot air. The key component, the Solar Air Heater, is seamlessly integrated into the industrial roof in a modular format. Computerized Flow Design (CFD) models helps us in designing collectors that takes into account air flow for optimal heat transfer. With these innovations we are able to achieve hot air temperature ranging from 60°C to 100°C. This hot air can also serve as a pre-heated air for systems that require higher final hot air.
In a nutshell, SunBest’s Solar Air Heating systems holds the promise of not only reducing fossil fuel consumption substantially but also enhances energy efficiency in industries, aligning with the current global trend towards sustainable energy solutions.
Through the integration of advanced automation and control systems, SunBest has achieved a remarkable feat of harmoniously blending solar-heated air with traditionally fuel-heated air leading to substantial reductions in fuel consumption as well as ensures uninterrupted industrial production which could be hampered by weather based variation in solar hot air generation
FAQ
Solar Air Heating system is a technology that harnesses solar energy to heat air using special collectors made of glass & absorbers, for various applications, such as space heating or industrial processes
Solar Air Heating System uses renewable solar energy, reducing the need for electricity/firewood/coal/fossil-fuel/gas-powered heating, which cuts emissions and conserves resources. It lowers fuel/electricity costs, promotes eco-friendliness, and is a viable energy source for any industry that requires heated air for drying processes.
The cost of a Solar Air Heating System can depend upon the temperature and volume of hot air required for drying processes. While the initial purchase and installation may be somewhat costly, it typically pays off the investment in less than 2 years through energy savings and lower utility bills
Maintaining a Solar Air Heating System is generally straightforward and not very difficult provided you keep the glass over the solar collector panels clean with soft water on a regular basis. Moreover, AMC with your supplier can ensure the efficiency and the lifespan of the system.
The lifespan of a well-designed and well-maintained Solar Air Heating system is around 15 years. The ROI depends on the fuel (electricity, coal, firewood, fossil fuel) that the Solar Air Heating system replaces and is generally less than 2 years.
