In this study, possible cleaner production opportunities for a dairy processing facility
are examined, considering the market milk production process. Cleaner production
concept and its key tools of implementation were analyzed to build the basis of
study. General production process and its resulting environmental loads are discussed
by taking possible CP opportunities as the axis of study. A methodology is developed
for cleaner production opportunity assessment in Milk Processing Facility of Atatü / rk
Orman Ciftligi. The methodology covers two major steps / preparation of checklists
for assisting auditing and opportunity assessment / implementation of the mass
balance analysis. For mass balance analysis, measurements and experimental
analysis of the mass flows are utilized to determine the inputs and outputs. Prepared check lists are utilized to determine waste reduction options that could be
implemented. Selected opportunities are evaluated considering its environmental
benefits and economic feasibility.
