Challenges
- Foodland, one of the famous brands of market leader Atlantic Grupa, is located in Kopaonik, one of Serbia’s most beautiful natural reserves. The company considers environmental protection as a strong priority.
- Following a power factor correction project in 2018, Resalta modernized cooling at the food processing plant.
Solutions
The existing process cooling system being inefficient, Resalta’s project goals were to ensure reliable and constant cooling through a separate and independent closed-circuit cooling that will have no negative environmental impact. The process cooling is used in the pasteurization process of jams and spreads which are the core business of the factory, under the brand name Granny’s Secret. Moreover, preserving drinking water, especially in summer when it is most in demand was an additional technical goal.
To improve efficiency and reduce environmental impact, Resalta installed two new Daikin air-to-water chillers of a nominal 106 kW and 331 kW capacity.The higher efficiency of the new chillers achieve water savings of 24,000 cubic meters each year.
