Kajian Tekno-Ekonomis Pabrik Tahu Manggunakan Metode Steam Boiler dengan Metode Tradisional di Kabupaten Sleman, Yogyakarta

The furnace is a tool that has optimal performance in the process of making tofu which starts from soybeans to produce tofu that is ready to be marketed. However, in fact the furnace works from before the fire burns until the fire goes out, tofu-making ends long before the fire goes out by itself. Therefore, the use of furnaces is considered less effective. Making tofu using a steam boiler can increase energy efficiency if the capacity of production is increased, so as to prevent scale that occurs in the cooking tub.
