Nutifood Hung Yen Dairy & Nutrition Plant Refrigeration System

Tan Long engineered, fabricated, and installed the turnkey industrial NH3 cooling facility for Nutifood Nutrition Food JSC at Pho Noi A Industrial Park, Hung Yen Province. Delivering 4 critical refrigeration modules, the plant guarantees rigorous temperature compliance for pasteurization and dairy product shelf-life preservation.

Project Dossier: Nutifood Hung Yen Dairy & Nutrition Plant Refrigeration System represents a turnkey EPC industrial refrigeration achievement delivered by Tan Long Refrigeration & Electrical Engineering JSC. Encompassing thermodynamic modeling, in-house pressure equipment manufacturing, and complete on-site commissioning, the facility meets strict global food safety codes (HACCP, ISO 22000, FDA) with an engineered lifespan exceeding 25 years.
Client / Investor: Nutifood Nutrition Food Joint Stock Company (Hung Yen)
Facility Location: Pho Noi A Industrial Park, Van Lam, Hung Yen Province
Scale & Capacity: Industrial NH3 refrigeration complex for dairy and pediatric nutrition plant
Design Temperature: +2°C to +8°C (Milk chill) & -18°C (Frozen ingredient cold rooms)
Key Engineering Highlight: All NH3 pressure vessels, surge drums, and automated valve stations were fabricated directly at Tan Long's ISO-certified factory, complying with strict statutory safety regulations.

1. Client Objectives & Stringent Technical Requirements

For the Nutifood Nutrition Food Joint Stock Company (Hung Yen) facility, uninterrupted cold chain integrity demands continuous 24/7 thermodynamic stability. Key design criteria addressed by Tan Long's engineering teams include:

  • Pinpoint Thermal Stability: Operating within +2°C to +8°C (Milk chill) & -18°C (Frozen ingredient cold rooms) with strict temperature tolerances within ±0.5°C to prevent product shrinkage or crystallization.
  • Energy Efficiency Optimization: Deploying variable-frequency screw compressors coupled with smart floating head pressure control to curb peak-hour power tariffs.
  • Zero Compromise on Refrigerant Safety: Utilizing High-Efficiency Industrial NH3 (R717) paired with automatic shut-off valve manifolds and multi-point ammonia leak detection.
  • Long-Term Structural Durability (25+ Years): High-density flame-retardant sandwich panels and floor frost-heave mitigation systems withstanding heavy forklift traffic.

2. Advanced Thermodynamic Solutions Delivered by Tan Long

To fulfill these rigorous expectations, Tan Long deployed an integrated thermodynamic architecture:

  • Centralized Compressor Stations: High-efficiency Japanese/German industrial screw compressors equipped with stepless slide-valve capacity modulation.
  • In-House Fabricated Pressure Vessels: High-pressure liquid receivers, surge drums, and oil separators built at Tan Long's manufacturing plant under ASME and TCVN standards.
  • Induced-Draft Evaporative Condensers: Closed-circuit cooling towers cutting water consumption by over 30% compared to traditional open cooling towers.
  • SCADA IoT Automation: High-speed PLC controllers transmitting real-time thermodynamic metrics to control rooms and mobile devices with automatic anomaly alerts.
