Evaporation Technoloy
Concentrated food products need to be sterilized before they can be stored, packed or dried.
During the direct high-heating, steam is injected into the product by means of a DSI unit (DSI = direct steam injector). In this way, the product is suddenly heated and flashed against a low pressure after a very short holding period and in this way it is cooled again just as quickly.
This sterilization process shows significant advantages compared to an indirect high-heating by means of heat exchangers. In case of indirect high heating the holding time at high temperatures is much longer.The short retension time and the possibility to treat high viscous products are the main advantages of this technology.
Best suited for temperature-sensitive products and liquids with small amounts of solids and going up to high concentrations
Best, but not only, for extreme evaporation conditions or liquids containing only small amounts of undissolved solids with a low tendency to form incrustations
Test facilities available for laboratory and pilot plant testing for different kinds of evaporator systems.
Ideal for highly viscous liquids or with a tendency to fouling. Optimal for saline solutions among other applications.
