Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, June 12
By Huseyn Hasanov – Trend:
Institute of Solar Energy is operating under Turkmenistan’s Academy of Science, the Neutral Turkmenistan newspaper reported June 12.
There are creation of efficient systems and installations for hot water supply, heating, water desalination, study of materials’ characteristics under high temperature as well as processing of biomass, non-waste growing of plants and animals based on autonomous wind and solar complexes, production of samples and output of serial production among its activities.
Particularly, self-sustained solar furnace, suggested for use during development of pastries of the Karakum Desert, is presented at the Astana EXPO-2017 in Kazakhstan. This complex consists of number of units like living quarter connected with hothouse, solar installation for production of biogas, ground water desalination units working of renewable sources of energy as well as biological reactors for growing of single-cell algae, the chlorella.
Another self-sustained solar energy waste-free complex, which model rose keen interest at the exhibition, is among other practical developments of the Institute of Solar Energy of the Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan. Multifunctional complex combines poultry farm, solar hothouse for growing plants and mushrooms. It also includes the premises for production of substratum, equipment for growing of chlorella, ventilation system, heating batteries, wind and solar installations. The production cycle is based on circular system of rotation of the heat, gas, fertilizers and water what allows considerable decrease of the investments of its construction comparing with the expenses for building of separate production facilities.
The third exhibit named Solar Energy Plateau represents innovative technology of drainage water treatment and its saturation with biological agents for further irrigation of agricultural crops. Use of this technology allows restoring degraded and saline soils and improving the provision of the areas under crops with water. The work of the technology is based on use of biomass wastes which are alternative fuel. Environmentally free liquid and solid biological additives are produced during this process from smoke and charcoal.
