A Framework for Recovering Waste Heat Energy from Food Processing Effluent

Effluent water from food processing retains considerable heat energy after emission treatment systems. Heat recovery technologies that may be appropriate for implementation in the industry have been widely explored, and selection of most suitable methodologies has pursued. A four-stage framework is introduced this paper to evaluate potential recoverability waste along with acceptor streams. The systematic approach utilizes thermal temporal compatibility tools cost–benefit analyses determine ideal heat-recovery equipment effluent. applicability demonstrated through an industrial case study undertaken a vegetable canning facility. Based on findings, yields efficient optimized reducing total demand
