Farming and Agriculture

Heat recovery from the exhaust air is beneficial and can be quite necessary for the farming and agriculture industry for reasons such as improving cost savings and energy efficiency, lowering greenhouse gas emissions, and for its practical applications in greenhouses, livestock housing, crop drying facilities and dairy farms. For example, the exhaust air from drying processes during post-harvest processing that often requires drying of crops to prevent spoilage can be a valuable source of recoverable heat. Furthermore, livestock buildings, such as barns, poultry houses, and pigsties, require ventilation and heating to maintain animal comfort. The warm, dirty air exhausted from these buildings can be a source of recoverable heat. 

The farming and agriculture industry, unfortunately however, generates various pollutants in the exhaust air from activities such as crop production, livestock farming, and the use of machinery. Lepido, the heavy-duty heat exchanger, thrives in such harsh commercial environments, recovering energy while allowing particles that would normally clog up the system, to simply pass through.
