Heat Exchangers For Challenging Dairy Applications

Dairy products display a wide range of physical and quality characteristics, from simple fluid milk through creams and yoghurt, to more solid products such as curds, ice cream cheese and even milk powder. Dairy processing also presents a range of heat transfer challenges, including heating, cooling, pasteurization and ultra-heat treatment (UHT) to extend shelf life. Plate heat exchangers are commonly used for heating or cooling simple non-viscous products such as milk, but more specialist products need more advanced heat exchanger technology. A wide range of options exist when it comes to selecting …

“Stop Food Waste”: Reduce Waste and Save Cost in Your Beverage Production

For the food processor, resource conservation not only implies an ecological and ethical component, but also pays off in hard cash. Every liter of less wasted resources means less lost value. In addition, every liter of product that ends up in the wastewater actually causes supplementary costs due to extra wastewater treatment. It therefore pays for every company to take the slogan “Stop Food Waste” seriously and to exhaust all possibilities for its implementation.
There is potential for avoiding food waste in many different areas in production plants.

Blending Liquids of Different Viscosities

When blending easily miscible liquids of similar viscosities, an agitator will produce satisfactory results. But where there is a significant difference in viscosity between the two liquids, an agitator tends to move the two liquids around without actually blending them together, and it can take a long time to achieve a uniform blend. For example, when manufacturing honey-based products, which can be extremely difficult to process due to the high viscosity and ‘sticky’ characteristics of honey. With a Silverson high shear mixer, the positive mixing action of the rotor/stator assembly draws …

How Do Coriolis Flow Meters Work?

Coriolis flow meters are known for their accuracy and fast response time. That some Coriolis sensor designs are also suited for very low flow rates of liquids as well as gases, is less common knowledge. How exactly do these instruments apply the Coriolis effect – the force that acts on objects and fluids in motion in a rotating system? Did you ever wonder why the wind in the Northern hemisphere mainly blows in a west/east direction during a low-pressure system? The answer lies in the earth’s rotation on its axis, and the higher speed at the equator compared to the poles.

Canned Motor Pumps for Deep-Freezing Baked Goods

Flake ice or ice water are often used to lower the temperature of baked goods, for example in the kneading process in bakeries.
This counteracts the heating introduced into the dough by the kneading process. In the summer months, ice water is often no longer sufficient for cooling and flake ice makers are used. | Read more »
