Abstract
Milk is an essential component of daily life and it is used in various forms like curd, cheese, butter, milk powder, ghee etc. Among them, milk powder is dried form of milk and popular for its longer shelf life and can be stored at ambient temperature. Milk powder manufacturing unit consists of various thermal processes like pasteurization, evaporation, drying and these processes consume very high energy. In last decade energy has become a topic of major concern due to various reasons like hike in price of fossil fuel, strict emission standards and increase in energy consumption. The objective of the paper is to apply a detailed exergy analysis by using different performance parameters such as exergy efficiency, exergy destruction rate for the milk powder manufacturing process. Here in this paper milk powder manufacturing process is analysed using exergy analysis tool.
