Steam is used to dry the milk powder in milk powder factories. When the steam used turns into condense, there is energy due to the pressure on it. This energy is generally referred to as waste heat. There are many ways to recover waste heat. Within the scope of this study, the calculations of the preheating coil will be made, and waste heat recovery will be achieved by transferring the latent heat above the condensate water to the air. In today's conditions, waste heat recovery processes are important in order to ensure energy efficiency. It is seen in the market that the sector develops projects within the scope of many savings measures and energy efficiency projects are formed as the fastest recycling. In this study, which was set out to use the competitive energy more efficiently, it was calculated how much of the heat load on the condensate could transfer to the air by verifying the air flow rate with the help of the pitot tube. The battery designed with the data obtained in line with these calculations was integrated into the system and commissioned. The temperature and pressure differences of the integrated battery were measured. The heat transfer and pressure losses obtained from the experimental results were compared with the values obtained with the CFD package program. The energy recovery obtained from the programming and training is 222.085 TL.
