Abstract

Cleaner Production (CP) is the one of important tools as an alternative of investigating the operation process that lead to high consumption of energy or reduces the efficiency of the machine used. In Malaysia, CP approach is still a new methods for implemented by the industry especially for chicken slaughtering industry and this approach can improve the operation production of the factory without harmful to the environment. Most of the factory having problem in high consumption of energy that lead to the high utility cost. In order to solving these issue, this research is carry out to measure energy consumptions on chicken slaughtering industry and evaluate CP options to reduce energy consumptions. In this research, the methodology used to achieve the objectives are direct observation on chicken slaughtering factory, survey using CP Implementation Tools (CPIT) software, details audit and cascade method by pinch analysis. From these methods, it is observed that the factory is using a high consumption of energy per month and found that causes of these matter by the unit operation of compressor and boiler. Throughout the survey, it is found that the unit operation that highly consider by the factory according to the CPIT software are Feet Cutting Motor, Pump (by Fuel), Water Chiller Motor and Meat Maker Machine Motor. In conclusion, the comparison between electricity bill and cascade method found that the energy loss is about 6.33 % and all of these unit operation give the most consideration CP options as match the pump size to the application and use more efficient pumping systems (displacement pumps rather than pressure pumps).
