Heat recovery from milk pre-cooling for thermal uses on the livestock farm

Recovering heat from milk pre-cooling for hot water or other uses cuts thermal consumption. Those savings become CAEs.

Is this your case?

  • ✓I run a dairy farm with a milk cooler
  • ✓I've fitted (or will fit) a heat recovery unit
  • ✓I want to monetise the heat recovered each year
Calculator · AGR020
litros/año

Annual milk volume passing through the cooler. Rough guide: about 8,000–10,000 L per cow per year.

ºC

Temperature drop of the milk while cooling. BOE reference value (33 ºC).

(0–1)

Efficiency of the heat exchanger. BOE reference value (0.9).

Estimated savings
16.703 kWh/year
CO₂ avoided4176 kg/year

Indicative estimate based on measure AGR020 of the CAE catalogue. The savings, the CAEs and their market value are validated by SinCeO2 as a Delegated Party.

Official formula: AE = ṁ · Cp · ΔT · h · η (ΔT=33 ºC, η=0,9 de referencia BOE)
