项目摘要

The project brief was to develop a technology that would supply steam to industrial and commercial users in India from a very innovative containerized solar thermal system developed originally by Larkfleet Limited under the name of Solar Steam.A team of engineers from Larkfleet have worked almost on a daily basis with Taylormade Renewables Ltd a company located in the north west state of Gujarat where there is a large city called Ahmedabad. This city is known locally as the "Manchester of the North" a very industrialized city of 6 million people where the air quality is heavily polluted from coal burning power stations, diesel emissions and wood burning because there has never been an alternative non polluting system for the production of steam. With the grant assistance the Indian company was contracted to build a modular containerized solar thermal system using Fresnel lenses which were specially designed in the UK. These lenses derive their energy from the sun which is then concentrated onto an evacuated tube abbsorber through which is pumped a thermal fluid or water which is then stored as steam and then used for various applications. The whole system is self energized from a battery pack that operate the hydraulic systems. This battery pack is re-charged from two solar Pv panels mounted on a cassette style platform on which is built the sub structure and lens array all of which is operated hydraulically from a PLC control system using a novel 2D tracking system that maximizes energy outputs from the sun.The system has now been constructed to the overall design supplied from the UK with some input from Cranfield University.This has been a very challenging project as working with Indian companies who have a totally different culture and working practices. In terms of timelines this has proved very difficult through out the period of the build. This has resulted in many delays and set backs to the timelines agreed with Innovate UK. However, the "as built system" is currently undergoing an agreed programme of test protocols after which Larkfleet will look for suitable commercial companies in India to manufacture and market this technology under a licencing agreement for specific territories.This technology has the ability and impact to change peoples’ lives as it will provide OFF - GRID energy in the form of heating, which can also be used for the treatment of saline and waste waters and also provide energy for cooling and irrigation systems particularly in very remote farming areas.This technology will create opportunities for start- up businesses particularly in agriculture and the dairy industries who need steam for processing , pasteurization and cooling. This will also help to provide jobs and lift people out of poverty so they can enjoy a normal healthy life expectancy. This containerized modular system is totally non-polluting with a ZERO carbon footprint which is easily transported to where there is the greatest need in any off-grid environment. There is a increasing demand for this type of technology particularly in the “sun belt” regions of the world which have the largest populations and a growing need for all forms of energy that can be used for water processing for the supply of food and to promote commerce enterprise including hospitals.Finally, there has been contact with the UN in Kyoto who are aware of this system and its suitability for disaster relief situations and they intend to view this system shortly for evaluation and possible use.
项目简介是开发一种技术,将蒸汽供应给印度的工业和商业用户,这种蒸汽来自一个非常创新的集装箱太阳能热系统,最初由Larkfleet Limited以solar steam的名义开发。来自Larkfleet的一组工程师几乎每天都与泰勒梅可再生能源有限公司合作,这家公司位于西北部的古吉拉特邦,那里有一座名为艾哈迈达巴德的大城市。这座城市在当地被称为“北方的曼彻斯特”,是一个拥有600万人口的高度工业化的城市,空气质量受到燃煤发电站、柴油排放和木材燃烧的严重污染,因为从来没有一种替代的无污染系统来生产蒸汽。在这笔赠款的帮助下,印度公司签订合同,使用菲涅耳透镜建造一个模块化集装箱太阳能热系统,该系统是在英国专门设计的。这些透镜从太阳获得能量,然后集中到一个真空管吸收器上,通过真空管吸收器泵送热流体或水,然后以蒸汽的形式储存起来,然后用于各种应用。整个系统由一个驱动液压系统的电池组自动供电。该电池组通过安装在盒式平台上的两块太阳能光伏板进行充电,该平台上安装了子结构和透镜阵列,所有这些都是通过PLC控制系统进行液压操作的,该系统使用了一种新颖的2D跟踪系统,可以最大限度地利用太阳输出能量。该系统目前已根据英国提供的总体设计建造,其中一些输入来自克兰菲尔德大学。这是一个非常具有挑战性的项目,因为与有着完全不同文化和工作方式的印度公司合作。就时间线而言,这在整个构建过程中被证明是非常困难的。这导致了许多延误和与Innovate UK商定的时间表的倒退。然而,“建成的系统”目前正在进行一个商定的测试协议项目,之后Larkfleet将在印度寻找合适的商业公司,根据特定地区的许可协议制造和销售这种技术。这项技术具有改变人们生活的能力和影响,因为它将以供暖的形式提供离网能源,也可用于处理盐水和废水,还可为冷却和灌溉系统提供能源,特别是在非常偏远的农业地区。这项技术将为初创企业创造机会,特别是在需要蒸汽进行加工、巴氏灭菌和冷却的农业和乳制品行业。这也将有助于提供就业机会,使人们摆脱贫困,使他们能够享受正常的健康预期寿命。这种集装箱模块化系统完全无污染,零碳足迹,可以轻松运输到任何离网环境中最需要的地方。对这类技术的需求日益增加,特别是在世界上人口最多的“阳光地带”地区,对各种形式的能源的需求日益增加,这些能源可用于水处理,以供应食品和促进包括医院在内的商业企业。最后,我们与京都的联合国进行了接触,他们了解这个系统及其对救灾情况的适用性,他们打算很快对这个系统进行评估和可能的使用。
