1c |
What is the Unique Sales Proposition of the potential product?Care este caracteristica definitorie a produsului care îl diferenţiază şi îl plasează în cadrul preferinţelor consumatorilor?
|
Detailed commentComentariu detaliat
Compared with analog equipment made abroad, in the proposed technical solution, more efficient heat accumulators are used (due to using water as a working body), air heater (using the matrix type absorber with longitudinal air flow) and drying room (due to flow of air that is heated by the layer of matter that is dried). The energy consumption in the proposed installation is reduced; the energy costs for evaporation of moisture from the products subject to drying are reduced by 1.5-1.7 times. |
