About the Book

This book reports thermodynamic investigation, analyses, and options of temperature/humidity control systems and their technologies for agricultural applications including (but not limited to) fruits and vegetable storage, poultry air-conditioning, livestock thermal comfort, and wet market air-conditioning. The optimum temperature and humidity requirements for these agricultural applications are identified. Consequently, energy-efficient heat pump options are explored accordingly. The book helps to understand and to apply the thermodynamic knowledge of the energy-efficient systems for agricultural applications.



About the Author:

Muhammad Sultan is Assistant Professor in Department of Agricultural Engineering, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan (Pakistan). He holds BSc (2008) and MSc (2010) in Agricultural Engineering from University of Agriculture, Faisalabad (Pakistan), and PhD (2015) in Energy & Environmental Engineering from Kyushu University (Japan). He did postdoctoral research in Energy & Environmental Engineering (2017) from Kyushu University (Japan) and in Mechatronic Systems Engineering (2019) from Simon Fraser University (Canada). He has published more than 200 articles in international journals, conferences, books, and book chapters. He has been reviewer for more than 70 renowned journals and holds editor role for five journals with publisher like SAGE, MDPI, and Frontiers. His research focuses on developing energy-efficient temperature and humidity control systems for agricultural applications including greenhouse, fruits/vegetable storage, livestock, and poultry applications. His research keywords include adsorption heat pumps, desiccant air-conditioning, evaporative cooling, Maisotsenko cycle, adsorption desalination, energy recovery ventilator, atmospheric water harvesting, and wastewater treatment.

Takahiko Miyazaki is a Professor in Department of Advanced Environmental Science and Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Sciences, Kyushu University. He holds a BSc in Mechanical Engineering from Chuo University, Japan and MSc in Renewable Energy and Architecture from the University of Nottingham, UK, and PhD in Engineering from Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), Japan. He worked as an Assistant Professor at Faculty of Engineering, TUAT before he joined Kyushu university as an associate professor in 2011. He was promoted to full professor in Kyushu University in September 2017. His specific research interests are in energy savings by utilization of low-grade thermal energy. He involved in several research projects such as "Research and development of waste heat driven cooling heat pump for automobiles" in Thermal Management Materials and Technology Research Association (TherMAT, 2013-2020). He has published more than 150 articles in peer-reviewed journals and international conference proceedings. He supervised a Japanese book on "Low Temperature Waste Heat Utilization Technologies by Adsorption Refrigerators/Heat pumps". He received the Environmental Engineering Award for Academic Achievement from Environmental Engineering Division, Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers in 2021.
