Energy saving in compound feed mills
The energy saving measures could be different for each country depending on specific conditions such as energy price and energy regulation. Moreover, in a particular country, each feed mill should be considered like a unique case because the energy efficiency solutions proposed for a feed mill could not be the most suitable for another feed mill. In order to improve its energy efficiency, a feed mill can implement techniques which are described in Best Available Techniques reference documents. Some examples can be optimized only with steam adjustment and some of them need high precision control system with speed control devices. However, with small touch it is easy to reduce energy 5% and with a well-planned plant investment energy can be saved approximately 20%.
