Chiller Plant Settings Optimised & Production Targets Met All Year Round
Problem
The milk processing plant at Danone Balclutha was not able to cool the milk to the desired set point, which impacted on the rest of the process.
Solution
DETA investigated the process, identified that the chiller plant settings could be optimised, and recommended practical actions for the plant to take, including:
- Revising PID control parameters
- Improved trending within SCADA to identify trips quickly
- Calibrating evaporator exit temperature probes
- Altering pressure set points
Outcome
Production targets can now be met all year round.
