Energy use in Rice-Mustard - Greengrain Cropping Systems (MJ/ha)
Energy Intensity of Fertilization • Inorganic fertilizers are major consumers of energy in the agricultural sector. • In the United States, inorganic fertilization accounts for about a third of total energy input to crop production. • The bulk of energy use associated with fertilizers is not consumed directly at the agricultural site. • The energy use is indirectly during production, packaging, and transportation to the site of Inorganic fertilizer. • Additional energy is also used onsite during fertilizer application. • Most fertilizer energy use is attributable to the production of nitrogen fertilizers with natural gas.
Supporting Tools and Methods • Major classification: • (a) Energy-based analysis and decision making in manufacturing environments. • (b) Modelling and analysis of energy efficient practices. • Improving EE in production facilities has become a big challenge for managers regardless of the industrial sector. • A shift towards energy efficient manufacturing systems, demands special tools and skills. • Major objective of these tools is to model and assess energy consumption behavior in a manufacturing environment.
Sub-components of Supporting Tools and Methods • These supporting tools and methods concern: • (i) Modelling and analysis • (ii) Emission calculation and sustainability assessment • (iii) Energy assessment • (iv) Benchmarking
Strategic Paradigms • Need for development of policies and strategies concerned with the advancement of industrial EE. • These are characterized by their interest/impact on the long term impacts produced by the implementation. • Classification of Strategic Elements: (i) Standardization and policy (ii) R&D and Innovation (iii) Technology selection, development and deployment (iv) Strategic decisions (v) Voluntary initiatives
Manufacturing Process Paradigms • Deals with re-design of manufacturing process. • Mainly comprises of innovations, changes and diverse proposals for Development of new technologies. • Mainly aimed at reducing the environmental impact associated with energy use in manufacturing processes. • The major focal point is process engineering, design and management.
Requirements for Manufacturing Process Paradigms • Finding improvements to actual systems in terms of environmental impacts. • Development of energy efficient manufacturing technologies for specific industrial sectors. • Manufacturing processes captures an important part of researchers. • Other points include energy control policies and green scheduling.
Manufacturing Performances • The outcome of the implementation of EMM. • The impact of EMM practices on other traditional performance measures. • Impact on financial and non-financial benefits.
