10. PIN, Newcastle 02052012 Subtask A: Process heat collector Lead country: Switzerland (Dr. Elimar Frank - SPF) Objectives:  Improving solar process heat collectors and collector loop components  Providing a basis for the comparison of collectors with respect to technical and economical conditions  Giving comprehensive recommendations for standardized testing procedures Source: TVP Solar Source: Sopogy

11. PIN, Newcastle 02052012 Subtask B: Process integration and Process Intensification combined with solar process heat Lead country: Austria (Bettina Muster – AEE INTEC) Objectives:  Improved solar thermal system integration for production processes  by advanced heat integration and storage management,  advanced methodology for decision on integration place and integration types  Increase of the solar process heat potential by combining  process intensification and solar thermal systems  fostering new applications for solar (thermal/UV) technologies The University of Manchester

12. PIN, Newcastle 02052012 Subtask B objectives Advanced heat integration  Methodology for advanced integration (incl. storage management)  Decision on integration place and integration types (at the process, at the distribution, at the supply) system definition – pinch analysis – ideal heat management – solar integration

13. PIN, Newcastle 02052012 Combining process intensification and solar thermal systems Analysis of the effect of upcoming technologies on the potential for solar (heat) in industry Positive effects (enhancing the potential), negative effects (decreasing the potential) e.g.: effect of microwave drying on solar drying processes? contribution of UV disinfection to industrial processes? effects of direct steam injection technologies e.g. direct steam injection in boiling (potential for high temperature collectors) less heat recovery from boiling for water preparation  increasing potential for solar hot water preparation Lower wash water needs due to process intensification  decreasing potential for solar hot water preparation. Identification of promising technology changes that will enhance the potential for solar (heat) in processes and the respective research needs e.g. continuous processes in the food industry; low temperature processes; static mixers for enhanced heat/mass transfer; photo catalytic processes etc.

14. PIN, Newcastle 02052012 Combining process intensification and solar thermal systems B4. Workshops on new process technologies (one at beginning, one when potential new applications are known together with solar collector developers) To provide a sound basis to the work foreseen and stimulate the know- how exchange between experts from conventional process technologies with solar process technologies, a dedicated workshop will be done for new process technologies that can potentially be driven by solar. 1st Workshop: Overview of new technologies - Which new technologies are/might be relevant? Planned: Begin of September 2012 in Graz (in the frame work of Gleisdorf Solar)

15. PIN, Newcastle 02052012 Subtask C: Design Guidelines, Case Studies and Dissemination Lead country: Germany (Dr. Werner Platzer - Fraunhofer ISE) Objectives:  a worldwide overview of results and experiences  to develop a performance assessment methodology for a comparison and analysis of different applications, collector systems, regional and climatic conditions  to support future project stake holders by providing design guidelines, simplified fast and easy to handle calculation tools Source: Industrial Solar Source: DLR
