Saving on energy
PA Wellington The food manufacturing industry could make a 10 per cent energy saving by improving its efficiency, a Massey University study has determined.
In the long term, further energy savings of 15 to 20 per cent were thought pos sible if more extensive changes were made. These included replacing old equipment with more ef-
Jficent modern plant, better matching of factory services services to the energy needs of processing equipment, the installation of heat-recovery plant, and greater use of direct fired plant to replace indirectly heated equipment.
The results of the study by the food technology centre at the university have been published by the Energy Research and Development Committee.
