Why Livestock Ventilation Should "Exchange Heat Without Exchanging Air"
Intensive farming (pigs, chickens, cattle, rabbits) requires continuous ventilation to control ammonia, humidity, and temperature, but in winter, exhausting large volumes of 20–30°C indoor air means huge heat loss. Using an air-to-air plate heat exchanger to recover heat from the exhaust air and preheat fresh air achieves winter warmth without mixing in contaminated air, reducing heating fuel costs by 30%–50% while improving animal welfare.
I. Pig / Chicken / Cattle Houses
- Aluminum foil heat exchange cores for energy recovery and cooling in direct-fired warm-air heaters for pig houses;
- Winter heating and ventilation heat recovery fresh-air waste heat energy-saving solutions for pig and chicken houses in livestock farming;
- Hexagonal plate heat exchangers, air-to-air heat exchange equipment with heat exchange cores for mushroom room ventilation.
II. Rabbit Houses and Mushroom Rooms
- HVAC-specific fresh-air heat exchangers for rabbit houses, plate heat exchange cores for livestock ventilation and dehumidification;
- Energy-saving ventilation units for mushroom cultivation rooms, heat recovery units for edible fungus culture rooms (waterproof);
- Plate heat exchangers, constant-temperature heat recovery units for ventilation air exchange in pig/cattle/rabbit animal farms and edible fungus/vegetable greenhouses.
III. Washing/Disinfection Centers and Manure Fermentation
- Epoxy aluminum foil heat exchangers for heat recovery in African swine fever disinfection channels of livestock pig-house washing/disinfection rooms;
- Manure fermentation machine waste heat recovery units, air-to-air heat exchangers for high-temperature heat energy recirculation;
- Drying-gas heat recovery units for livestock washing/disinfection centers, retrofit for ventilation waste heat recovery in chicken and pig houses.
Material and Anti-Corrosion
