Abstract:
The energy of solar radiation is a powerful energy reserve at
the surface of the globe which is about twenty billion kW. This amount of
energy is more than 100 times greater than the amount of necessary energy
for the whole planet; besides the usage of this powerful energy radiator is
not associated with polluting substances that pollute the planet. The usage
of solar energy nowadays is very important, as the problem of using
traditional energy resources is especially acute, because of their
irreplaceability and increase in their cost.
At the plants of the Republic of Kazakhstan for the industrial
production of building materials today, a trend is outlined for the use of
non-traditional types of energy, and mainly solar energy at the stage of
heat treatment, where steam heating was traditionally used.
In these researches, development in the direction of temperature
treatment of polystyrene concrete was considered. The purpose of the
research is the development and practical implementation of the
technology of production of polystyrene using solar energy. The results of
the conducted researches confirmed that the usage of solar thermal
treatment methods for the thermal treatment of polystyrene concrete is
effective in weather conditions for the southern regions of the Republic of
Kazakhstan which refers to areas with dry and hot climatic conditions.
Detailed studies of polystyrene concrete under high-temperature weather
conditions have been carried out and introduced into production. The usage
of heliotechnology for the production of polystyrene concrete improves the
quality of manufactured products, also makes it possible to reduce the
energy costs of traditional energy covered by the use of solar energy.
