Parabolic Trough Solar Steam
for Dairy Industry

Cut fuel costs up to 60% • Continuous pasteurization, evaporation & CIP • 120–250°C solar steam

KVB Parabolic Trough for Dairy

Dairy plants are bleeding energy costs

Dairy processing runs on heat. From pasteurization to evaporation and CIP cleaning — your plant depends on continuous steam and hot water. Most dairy plants today rely on:

  • LPG / Furnace Oil / Diesel boilers
  • High daily operating hours
  • Constant thermal demand

Business Impact

  • Fuel cost = major share of operating expense
  • Energy cost fluctuates with fuel price
  • High steam demand in evaporation & drying increases cost further
  • Carbon emissions impacting sustainability goals
  • Pressure from large buyers for green processing

You are not just producing dairy — you are consuming expensive fuel every hour.

What if you could permanently reduce a major portion of your heating costs?
