Energy conservation and cost benefits in the meat and poultry processing industry
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6056947
Many processes can benefit from the use of heat exchangers for recovery of waste heat, efficient electric motors, and insulation. Modifications such as combustion air control for boilers and efficient compressors for refrigeration systems are also beneficial and widely applicable. Processes unique to the industry can also be modified to save energy. These modifications typically are capital intensive and often have adjunct product income in addition to energy savings that make them economically attractive. Examples of industry-specific technologies include hog skinning, continuous coagulation and drying of whole blood, and electrical stimulation and hot boning of beef.
