Impressions taken during the production of two large air intake desiccant wheel dehumidifiers and a large heat recovery system with integrated CIP system for food processing facilities in Germany and the Netherlands.
The air intake units, which process and dehumidify 200’000 kg/h of production air, are quite impressive: a total weight of 65’000 kilograms and dimensions of around 12x5x7 meters (LxWxH) each.
The heat recovery system, with imposing figures of 17’000 kg and 3x4x8 meters, achieves annual energy savings of around 13’000 MWh. It reduces emissions by more than 2’500 tons of CO2 per year: the equivalent of the annual emissions of over 1’000 households!
