Abstract
Types of energy source were identified in addition to unit operations/processes such as energy, time and number of persons and mass/material data were collected, computed and analyzed. Results showed no significant difference at 95% confidence level of the energy requirements for the 9 cases studied with respect to the identified unit process of operation of Gari production and the mean values of the total energy of consumption was found to be 1845.8MJ. Linear programming simplex method was used to minimize energy consumption in the local Gari production
