Abstract

Industrial energy consumption represents one third of the total energy used worldwide, significant amount of which is thermal energy. This paper presents details of the recent installation of a linear Fresnel collector to provide saturated steam at 6 bar gauge (166°C) through Direct Steam Generation (DSG) on the supply level for process heat usage in the Jordanian pharmaceutical manufacturing company RAM Pharma, where first solar steam has been provided in March 2015. This commercial DSG project also represents the first solar DSG plant in MENA.
