Ammonia heat pump for energy saving in food industrial processes: the case of a cheese factory.

Author(s) : PANNO G., AUGUANNO S., MESSINEO A., et al.

Summary

This paper reports a feasibility study on the plants of a cheese factory by means of addition of a heat pump with ammonia as the refrigerant in order to recover the thermal reject of two refrigerating units and to supply the required heat to pasteurize the milk. It was computed, for the new lay-out, the energy saving and the reduction of emissions of CO2 compared to previous lay-out. The results obtained demonstrate that the proposed solution enables energy saving and advantageous affects on our environment.
