Optimising cooling plants
Process cooling is the single most electricity-consuming process in slaughterhouses. For this reason, we have for many years focused on the efficiency of our cooling plants. Initiatives include the ongoing optimisation of condenser pressure in existing cooling plants, and heat recovery systems have been implemented at all pig slaughterhouses. When purchasing new cooling plants, energy efficiency is given a high priority. The optimisation of cooling plants contributes quite substantially to the fall in CO2 emissions per pig slaughtered.
