ASSESSMENT OF ENERGY MANAGEMENT IN FEED PLANTS: A REVIEW OF NECESSITY AND OBJECTIVE

Abstract

Energy demand, especially in the industrial sector, is rapidly increasing in our country. Due to the inadequacy of energy production to meet demand and the limit of new energy sources, it is becoming compulsory to import energy. This demonstrates the necessity of more efficient use of energy in all sectors. The energy sector is used intensively in the industrial sector and the highest consumption values are achieved according to other sectors. For this reason, it has become a necessity to attach importance to energy management and energy efficiency in the industry. Energy use is an important issue in the feed plants. Over the past decade, the significant increase in energy costs has contributed to reducing plant profit margins. Since profit margins are generally relatively low in wheat processing plants, efficient management of energy consumption has become a necessity instead of preference. A better efficient utilization of fuel, electricity, thermal energy and labor are the major components of manufacturing cost in feed plants
