As part of the project Climate-neutral and competitive food industry by 2030 funded by the Association of German Industrial Engineers (VWI), this guide to decarbonizing process heat supply for companies in the food industry was created. It provides support in the selection of technologies and the evaluation of their sustainability and economic viability.
The final report can be here downloaded from the VWI website.
On this page you will also find the additional material described in the report. This consists of an Excel tool for decarbonizing your own business. The tool contains
- the creation of a greenhouse gas balance (according to the GHG protocol)
- a process technology matrix for selecting suitable technologies
- a benefit analysis to compare possible technologies
- a profitability assessment of the technologies
- A dashboard with all results
