Energy recovery in the meat processing and dairy industry

In the meat processing and dairy industry, production areas are cleaned with lots of hot water, to prevent mould and bacterial growth, good ventilation is necessary. In addition, it takes a lot of energy to keep these production areas continuously cooled. Every air flow that leaves the meat or dairy factory is therefore interesting from an energy (enthalpy) point of view. Air Solutions Holland helps the meat processing and dairy industry with the design and construction of these energy recovery solutions. This can be heat but also cold energy, in the form of air and/or water flows. Air Solutions helps to re-use this energy in a useful way, making the entire process more efficient and saving energy and fossil fuel.

Air Solutions Holland has the following techniques in house:

• Twin-coil systems
• Rotor type of recovery systems
• Air/air heat exchangers
• Water/water heat exchangers

Energy recovery systems are designed for a customer specific application, and are also often eligible for a subsidy scheme. This scheme aims to stimulate entrepreneurs with fiscal investment schemes to invest in sustainable energy and energy saving techniques. The Dutch government offers a tax advantage when purchasing energy-efficient equipment.

• Capacities from 50 to 5,000 kW
• Air volumes from 10,000 to 150,000 m³/h

Energy recovery in combination with a heat pump often makes the complete energy management even more interesting, especially when cold and hot energy are required in the waste processing plant. The Air Solutions employees are therefore always ready to advise you, without any obligation, about which solution is most suitable for your situation.
