Project: Recovery and use of waste heat in the animal feed industry
Sector: Agri-food industry
Location: Hauts de France – Amiens (80)
Beginning of the project: 2016
Objective of the project:
To reheat the water feeding the boiler using the waste heat discharged into the chimney, for thermal needs between 300 and 750 kW, depending on the site’s steam needs.
To reduce the chemical consumption at the site and specifically to neutralise boiler purges.
Key figures/results:
of heat recovered
of power consumed
Water temperature increased from 33°C to 40.4°C
Purges neutralised by the acidity produced by CO2 capture, replacing an additional acid
COP installation: 20.5
760 T of CO2 avoided per year
Return on investment: 3.6 years
“ This is the first industrial TerraoSave installation of this size. The performance meets our expectations, the results are highly satisfactory. It is a significant success.” Denis Bobillier, Director of Technical Matters and Key Projects at Dalkia Nord Ouest
