Abstract:
The energy affects all the aspects of the modern life. The International Council of Energy has presented many scenarios that come to meet the future need of energy, which consider as important problems the economic development (technological progress), the environment’s protection and the international ethic. Because, on the one hand, the fossil fuel is a polluting source of energy and on the other hand, its amount is in a continuously diminution, one has given a greater importance on using unconventional sources of energy, especially geothermal energy, that is a clean energy source. Considering all these aspects, the author is going to show the possibilities for using the geothermal energy in the industry of wood and forestry. Starting from the knowledge that one has gained about process’ characteristics of predrying and the characteristics of using the geothermal water, one proposes a solution for insuring the warm air at a temperature of 35-70ºC and of the hot water at a temperature of minimum 40ºC.
Keywords:
