Choice of Solar Panels

http://energyinformative.org/best-solar-panel-monocrystalline-polycrystalline-thin-film/ Advantages Monocrystalline solar panels have the highest efficiency rates since they are made out of the highest-grade silicon . The efficiency rates of monocrystalline solar panels are typically 15-20%. SunPower produces the highest efficiency solar panels on the U.S. market today. Their E20 series provide panel conversion efficiencies of up to 20.1%. [3] Update (April, 2013):  SunPower has now released the X-series at a record-breaking efficiency of 21.5%.  [7] Monocrystalline silicon solar panels are space-efficient.  Since these solar panels yield the highest power outputs, they also require the least amount of space compared to any other types. Monocrystalline solar panels produce up to four times the amount of electricity as thin-film solar panels. Monocrystalline solar panels live the longest.  Most solar panel manufacturers put a 25-year warranty on their monocrystalline solar panel

Top Solar Players in India

Among them Tata Solar , Vikram Solar & Emmvee Group stand out . Tata Solar has a turnover of approximately Rs 510 crores . For more details look on below , a good compilation by Richa Chakravarti of elctronics2b http://electronicsb2b.efytimes.com/top-15-solar-players-india/

Solar Cell Manufacturers review

There are essentially 3 types of Solar Cell Companies .The tier 1 comprising top 2% do core R&d and are integrated end-to-end.The experience is more than 10 years. The second line about 8% do not indulge in R&d but use partial robotics etc for manufacturing. They have experience of 2-5 years .The rest 90% are assemblers and use human production lines for manual soldering.The projects however have a good capital output ratio .  Here's a good link to review the top Solar Companies  http://www.forbes.com/sites/uciliawang/2014/12/03/guess-who-are-the-top-10-solar-panel-makers-in-the-world/#2e34708f2812 Solar equipment makers are gearing up to expand production again after many of them had to idle production lines or close factories. So who are the top 10 solar panel makers these days? IHS   released its ranking today that put Trina Solar as the top shipper of solar panels in 2014, followed by Yingli Green  Energy . Both companies are based in China, which has

HORECA – Critical Mass in International Markets

http://www.exportincite.com/news/2015/05/horeca-critical-mass/ Let’s be honest. Volume is the major driver in the food service industry. We all want it and for good reason. By Cameron Gordon, Asia Market Director, Incite Volume gives us critical mass. Economies of scale that allow for reduced costs and leaner margins. The net result is increased competitiveness, more frequent orders, and happy customers. But, unless you’re in the commodity trade, most export sales will not start out as FCL (full container load) and you’ll probably be using a distribution partner to supply end customers. Building volume takes a concerted effort. Even if you have managed to secure a partnership with one of the leading distributors in your export market, it can be a painfully slow process. The reasons for this can include: - The distributor is overloaded with brands. - The distributor’s sales force do not understand your products USP, or there are other products in the catalog they

Spray Drying versus Freeze Drying

Spray & Freeze Drying applies to instant tea , coffee , milk powder & pharmaceuticals . FD is costly and helps in retention of multiple properties of the material .However to control surface area and certain properties spray drying is more suitable .  ======================================== Is Spray Drying a Viable Alternative to Lyophilization? Dec 16, 2009 By  Erik Greb Equipment and Processing Report http://www.pharmtech.com/spray-drying-viable-alternative-lyophilization Lyophilization, or freeze drying, is the most common processing method for removing moisture from biopharmaceuticals, and it can increase the stability, temperature tolerance, and shelf life of these products. Although lyophilization is well established within the industry, it requires expensive equipment that takes up a great deal of space within a production facility. Lyophilization also can take days to complete, and manufacturers that need a powdered product must incorporate a g

Study time during the day

There have been some very well  researched study by Swami Parthasarathy to identify a suitable time of the day when studies are to be conducted . This knowledge has been passed down to us over centuries by the sages and rishis of India . Different times of the day are classified as Sattvik , Rajasik and Tamasik . Sattva – Transactive Rajas – Active Tamas – Inactive The time between 4am to 6am in a day is classified as Sattvik time also known as Brahma Muhurta.This is the best time to brood , contemplate and reflect. Sattva is the state of mind in equanimity, serenity, when a person remains poised , mature , contemplative and objective, detached from worldly involvement and excitement. After the sattvik time is over, Rajas rises to the surface while the other two remain dormant. Rajas predominates during the day from 6am to 4pm. And tamas is seen glaringly at night.Sensual indulgences and other irresponsible heedless activities flourish at night time. Even a talented
