            Heat Recovery System
            at Filament Yarn Dyeing
            Facility

            Interloop has a state of the art
            Filament Yarn Dye House equipped
            with the latest & highly specialized
            machinery. The Heat Recovery System
            provides the added advantage of
            economizing its operations to a
            significant extent. High-temperature
            waste liquor passes through heat
            exchanger to raise the temperature of                                                                                         Effluent and Waste
