ABSTRACT:
For drying of crops and preserving of foods or other perishables or such a heat pump is used. The heat producing end or "Hot" side of the heat pump may be used to produce warm dry air for drying while the cold producing end or "Cold" side produces cool dry air for drying. The effect is to obtain much more drying per kilowatt hour of electricity used than if the electricity were used through resistance heating elements, as is now a common practice. Our precious energy is conserved and used much more efficiently.
In addition to heat pump Hot and Cold drying, Solar Energy may also be used. That goes a step further in conserving our energy, during the Energy Crisis, and both approaches help to alleviate the Pollution Crisis by using less of our electrical or combustion produced energy, that must be produced by pollution creating equipment.
A portion or all of the heat output, or cooling output, may be used for heating or cooling a home or other building.
The overall effect is to reduce our use of foreign energy supplies, to reduce our balance of payments due to foreign countries, to reduce our indebtedness to the oil Shieks of foreign lands, and to save money and energy for our own food producers who supply us with food, feeds and perishables. That, in turn, means lower costs for the peoples for their food and living expenses.
