Decarbonization of drying processes

The industrial sector is responsible for a good third of Germany's final energy consumption. A large proportion of greenhouse gas emissions from industry can be directly attributed to process heat. This is heavily dependent on fossil fuels.

In this online event, we would like to show the possibilities for decarbonizing energy-intensive drying processes and increasing their efficiency. Dr. Anne-Tretau from MFPA Weimar will shed light on the possibilities of using microwave drying. Dr. Jens Strack from Therm-Process-Consulting Freiberg will provide insights into typical efficiency measures in drying processes.

10:00 a.m.: Welcome

10:05 a.m.: Possibilities of using microwave drying (followed by a discussion of the presentation)
Dr. Anne Tretau, MFPA Weimar

10:45 a.m.: Efficiency measures in thermoprocessing plants and drying processes (followed by a discussion of the presentation)
Dr. Jens Strack, Therm-Process-Consulting, Freiberg

11:15 a.m.: General discussion on drying processes

11:30 am: End

The online event is part of the webinar series on solutions for renewable heating processes.

Further dates in this webinar series are

• 26.04.2024: Renewable process heat - how can it succeed?
• 18.06.2024: Decarbonization of combustion and forming processes

Notes:

• Credit for the event has been applied for in order to extend the entry in the list of energy efficiency experts for federal funding programs (dena points).
• You will receive the dial-in details the day before the respective webinar.

The event will be held with Microsoft Teams. Participation is free of charge.

This is a joint event of the energy agencies of the states of Lower Saxony (KEAN), Hesse (LEA) and Thuringia (ThEGA) - in cooperation with the local business development and regional energy agency.

The Hannover Region Economic Development Agency is a cooperation partner of the event.
