Abstract

A heat management system (100) for minimising overall energy use in a process, in which the heat management system is operable in a first mode for chilling milk (600) or another product and recovering heat therefrom, and a second mode for transferring recovered heat through the system comprising: a refrigeration system (500) for chilling the milk or product, the refrigeration system comprising a refrigeration circuit (550) for receiving a working fluid, including a compressor (554), an evaporator (552), an expansion valve (558), a condenser (556); and a heat recovery system (10) for recovering heat from the milk or product, the heat recovery system comprising first and second heat reservoirs (12, 14), in which during operation in the first mode, the refrigeration system is configured to cool the milk and at least some of the recovered heat is stored in the first heat reservoir, and in which during operation in the second mode, the first heat reservoir is configured to provide heat to the evaporator, and the second heat reservoir is configured to receive heat from the condenser for subsequent use in the process.
