Hi guys,
Thank you for your replies. Yes, the HTST system uses a heat regeneration module in which 80-90 % of energy is recovered compared to the vat pasteurization process. The hot pasteurized milk preheats the incoming cold milk in the regeneration section. Also. there is no cooling required...
Thank you so much LittleInch,
I don't really look at the timeline of the cooling process but want to be at least a 1 - 2 hours window.
The project I am working on is to justify the VAT cooling process compared to HTST milk pasteurization. I want to understand the savings on the cooling side of it.
Hi Guys
Thank you for your replies, and sorry for the confusion.
I am trying to determine the total amount of energy that needs to be removed from the milk and the cost associated with this process. I want to cool down one jacketed vat of milk 1500 gallons from 175 degrees Fahrenheit to 90...
Hello,
I want to calculate the cost of the cooling process and see if this is the right way to do it. Assuming the cost per KW at $0.15
I need to cool 12 vats of milk from 175 F down to 90 F. Each vat has 1500 gallons of milk.
Total BTU per vat = 1500*8.6*0.92*85=1,008,780
Total...
