Solar industrial heating systems are thermally driven systems that operate at temperatures of around 110 degrees Celsius. They are used for desalination, which is the process of removing minerals from saline water. Flat plate collectors and evacuated tube collectors usually have operating temperatures of 80°C and 120°C, respectively.
Solar industrial heating systems can also be used for: Preheating boilers Reheating condensate Heating air Evaporating liquid waste Providing temperatures from 80–400°F for manufacturing processes
Solar industrial heating systems include: Solar thermal collectors Heat transfer fluid Connecting pipes Pumps Heat exchangers
Solar thermal technologies that are useful for industrial process heat include: Solar air collectors Solar water systems Solar concentrators
Solar thermal systems can be classified into three categories: Flat plate collectors Evacuated tube collectors Concentrating solar collectors
