The article describes the conditions of use of heat pumps in the Russian industry. It proposed to introduce for the food industry, in particular for milk production, teplonanosnaya installation. Heat pump system allows to cover the heat load on the heating, ventilation and hot water supply of a specific milk production due to utilization of energy in the form of relief condensate produced in industrial drying processes. It is shown that the proposed plant will allow useful secondary steam and condensate will reduce fuel costs, simplify circuit heat consumption, reduce the cost of production of thermal energy, reduce operating costs for maintenance of heating systems, heat loss and reduce emissions into the environment.

Keywords: energy efficiency, milk production, relief energy, condensate recovery, heat pump system
