Islam F. El-Adly*, El-Sayed G. Khater**,
Adel H. Bahnasawy*** and Samir A. Ali***
ABSTRACT
The main aim of the present work is to study and evaluate energy
consumption in bread baking. This was achieved by determining the
energy consumed in each stage of bread baking processing to assess the
most consumable stage of bread baking process. Magr baladi, Mawi and
French bread baking were evaluated processes. Thermal, electrical and
human energy sources were determined. The results indicated that the
total specific energy consumed were 3038.11, 2831.85 and 4823.53 kJ kg-
1 for magr baladi bread, mawi baladi bread and French bread,
respectively. The specific electrical energy consumed were 42.21, 40.33
and 59.92 kJ kg-1 for magr baladi bread, mawi baladi bread and French
bread, respectively. The specific human energy consumed were 5.35, 5.42
and 10.72 kJ kg-1 for magr baladi bread, mawi baladi bread and French
bread, respectively. The specific thermal energy consumed were 2990.50,
2786.10 and 4752.89 kJ kg-1 for magr baladi bread, mawi baladi bread
and French bread, respectively, which represent 98.43, 98.38 and 98.54%
of the total energy consumed. The Total costs of different types of bread
baking were 2.32, 1.76 and 4.80 LE kg-1 for Magr baladi, Mawi baladi
and French bread, respectively.

1. INTRODUCTION
nergy is one of the most important parameters in the
manufacturing industries. In most cases, energy cost outweighs
the costs of other resources such as raw material, labors,
depreciation and maintenance (Fadare, 2003). Scientific production and
analysis of energy consumption will be of great importance for the
planning of energy strategies and policies.

Nowadays, energy usage in agriculture has been intensified in response to
continued growth of human population, tendency for an overall improved
standard of living and limited supply of arable land; thus, the farmers use
their inputs in excess and inefficiently, particularly when the inputs have
low price or are available in plenty. The enhancement of energy
efficiency not only helps in improving competitiveness through cost
reduction, also results in minimized energy-related environmental
pollution, thus positively contributing towards sustainable development
(Kizilaslan, 2009 and Ghorbani et al., 2010).
Bread production occurs on a number of different scales, from the artisan
bakeries serving the local community, to the large commercial bakeries
serving entire nations, as well as in-store supermarket bakeries, small
chain outlets and anything in between. Baking ovens come in a variety of
different configurations, from small domestic units to large tunnel ovens.
Industrial ovens are typically gas powered and are usually classified as
direct (forced convection), indirect, microwave, radiation, or infrared
systems (Keskin et al., 2004; Mirade et al., 2004; Sakin et al., 2009;
Khatir et al., 2012; Khater and Bahnasawy, 2014). Other energy
sources include oil, electricity and woodchip burners. Previous studies in
the baking industry estimate that the specific energy consumption of a
bread oven is typically anywhere between 0.5 and 7.3 MJ/kg production
(Le Bail et al., 2010).
Baking is an energy-intensive process due to water evaporation occurring
in the product (latent heat of water vaporization is 2.257 MJ kg-1 at 100
°C). The energy demand for a conventional baking process is around 3.7
MJ kg-1, though it can be higher (up to 7 MJ kg-1) depending on specific
products and operating conditions. In this sense, baking is similar to
(conventional) drying, both demanding a high amount of energy in
comparison with chilling, freezing, and canning, which need less than 1
MJ kg-1 (Le Bail et al., 2010).
There are approximately 18,000 baladi bakeries in Egypt. 90% are
privately owned and 10% are publicly owned. The public bakeries have
an average throughput of 7 tons of flour per day while the private bakeries
average 1 ton per day. Bakeries pay 160 LE t-1 for subsidised flour. Note

that if the price of wheat was US$200 t-1, the unsubsidised price of flour
would be in excess of 1,100 LE t-1. The technology used in the bakeries
appears to be fairly uniform, with similar oven sizes and designs. The
Egyptian Government provides a range of subsidised goods and services
to the Egyptian people, including subsidised (baladi) bread. The Egyptian
Ministry of Finance estimates that approximately 12-13 billion LE is
spent per year on subsidising Baladi bread and flour, which equates to
roughly 1.5% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (World Bank, 2010).
There is no known report in the literature on the energy requirements of
bread baking as practiced in Egypt. Such information is vital so as to
enable the management of this industry to develop strategies for better
control of their production operations and modify areas of waste. It will
also enable the management to properly appraise their energy
consumption for effective planning of production network. The study will
provide an opportunity for having a reliable database concerning
consumption of some types of energy by different users in bread baking.
It will also provide a firm basis of identifying options for saving energy in
bread baking operations; therefore, the main aim of the present work is to
study and evaluate energy consumption of baking of different types of
breads. 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS
The main experiment was carried out at the three local bakeries ovens,
Moshtohor, Toukh, Kalubia Governorate, Egypt, during the period of
2015 season to evaluate of energy consumption in the baking of different
types of breads.
2.1. Bread baking ovens description:

measure the line current strength (I) and the potential difference value
(V).
2.3. The specific energy consumption:
The total energy consumption (electrical, human and thermal) for each
component was calculated for the production of finished bread baking for
three oven types. The procedures were used:
Electrical energy consumption was estimated from the measured electric
current and voltage values and estimated according to Kurt (l979) as
follows:

Pro 1000 cos3
VI
Ep
Where:
Ep is the electrical energy, kJ kg-1
I is the electric current, Amperes.
η is the Mechanical efficiency assumed to be 0.95 (Metwally,
2010). Vis the electrical voltage, V
cosφ is the Power factor being equal to 0.84
Pro is the productivity, kg s-1
According to Odigboh (1997), at the maximum continuous energy
consumption rate of 0.30 kW and conversion efficiency of 25%, the
physical power output of a normal human labor in tropical climates is
approximately 0.075 kW sustained for an 8–10 h workday. This was
calculated mathematically as:

Where:
Em is the Human energy, kJ kg-1
N is the number of persons involved in an operation.
Machine productivity was determined by dividing product mass by time,
Mg h-1.
Thermal energy consumption was estimated from equation:

3.2. Comparison between the specific energy consumption of different
bread baking ovens types:
Table (5) and figure (10) show the specific energy consumed in different
bread baking bakeries. It could be seen that the specific energy consumed
in bread baking bakeries were 3038.11, 2831.85 and 4823.53 kJ kg-1 for
Magr, Mawi and French bread bakeries, respectively. The highest value
of energy consumed (4823.53 kJ kg-1) was found for French bread bakery,
while, the lowest value of energy consumed (2831.85 kJ kg-1) was found
for Mawi baladi bread bakery which is lower by about 2000 kJ kg-1 which
is due to the Mawi bread baking took less time to produced.

3.3. The total costs of different types of breads:
Figure (11) shows the estimated costs of different types of bread baking
bakeries. It could be seen that the total cost was 2.32 LE kg-1 for Magr
baladi bread oven as compared with 1.76 LE kg-1 for Mawi baladi bread,
while, the total costs for the French bread was much higher than that of
both Magr baladi and Mawi baladi ovens, where it recorded 4.80 LE kg-1.
It could be concluded that to produce one kg of French bread costed 2.07
and 2.73 times of that of Magr baladi bread and Mawi baladi bread,
respectively.

4. CONCLUSION
The experiment was carried out to evaluate energy consumption in
different types of bread baking. Three types of energy were used in bread
baking oven, namely, electrical, human and thermal energies. The thermal
energy represented the most energy consumed, where, it ranged from
98.38- 98.54% of the total energy consumed in bread baking. Human
energy ranged from 0.18 – 0.22% of the total energy consumed in bread
baking. Electrical energy ranged from 1.24 - 1.42% of the total energy
consumed in bread baking. The Total costs of different types of bread
baking were 2.32, 1.76 and 4.80 LE kg-1 for Magr baladi, Mawi baladi
and French breads, respectively.
