BP6 - Replace refrigeration compressor
| Company name: MINH DANG Co., Ltd | |
| Address: 83 Provincial Road 8, My Xuyen Town, My Xuyen District, Soc Trang Province | |
| Project Summary: Replacement of piston refrigeration compressors with screw refrigeration compressors. The project targets to reduce the energy costs and the emission of greenhouse gases. | |
| Year of implementation: 2017 | |
|
Status before implementation Minh Dang Co., Ltd. produces frozen seafood for export with main products including: squid, octopus. The factory has 2 continuous refrigeration systems for cold storage, IQF conveyor, and re-freezing. In order to save the energy, the plant was planning to replace 4 existing reciprocating compressors with 2 high-efficient screw refrigeration compressors.
