Renewable Energy, 1992, vol. 2, issue 1, 1-5

Abstract: Energy consumption in tea processing in China reached 860,000 tons of coal equivalent in 1988 (2.93 GJ/ton), most of which was provided by biomass. The paper deals with tea production and processing and their energy consumption in 17 provinces, types of tea and associated problems, such as waste of energy, bad ecological effects and the high cost of tea production. The paper also deals with measures to solve the energy problems in tea processing and lists five energy saving techniques in the process.
