Heat Recovery Unit
A heat recovery unit is an insulated water tank through which pipes carry the refrigerant gas to the refrigerant condenser. Heat released from condenser is usually wasted in the environment. With the help of Heat recovery unit heat from the gas is transferred to the water. This water is used to clean BMC during CIP. This saves on the cost and load of BMC operation which is caused by electric water heater. A heat recovery unit can preheat the water to 65 °C-75 °C, depending on the temperature of the water as it enters the tank and the temperature of gas.
