Abstract The objective of this paper is to
present a logical and systematic analysis of the economic and energy
utilization factors that should be reviewed when an organization decides to
consider the use of microwave energy for industrial applications. This will
be accomplished by first presenting background material concerning the
adoption rate of microwave energy, an argument about energy consumption, and
a discussion of industrial processes and industries using these processes.
The economic factors that should be reviewed are then introduced and finally
a model is developed. |
