Recognizing your drive for enhanced pasteurization equipment efficiency, we introduce Tetra Pak's High Heat Regeneration for Plate Heat Exchangers—a solution geared towards reducing steam consumption and energy usage during production.
This upgrade capitalizes on the regenerative power of heat. It optimizes three heating phases: pre-heating milk or water for mixing, raising the mixture temperature before homogenization, and initiating pasteurization through hot water. Furthermore, the cooling sequence unfolds in three stages: cooling pasteurized product via pre-pasteurized counterparts before homogenization, cooling pasteurized mix using process water or milk, and finally, chilling the end product using ice water. This innovative approach empowers your operation with increased efficiency and reduced energy demands.
In ice cream production, our priority is achieving a lower draw temperature from the continuous freezer. This primarily involves a systemic approach focused on minimizing energy input from dasher agitation and reducing pressure drop through the front cover. Temperature can be lowered by up to -2°C, contingent on the ice cream recipe.
The process is applicable to Tetra Pak® continuous freezers CF/CFS and KF F1 generations, or control upgraded freezers to F1 or CF level. To achieve lower temperatures, we aim to decrease friction heat between Dasher Knives and Freezing Cylinder, while simultaneously reducing pressure drop through the front cover. A special dasher and beater design caters to higher viscosity.
Implementing the Low Temperature kit for Continuous Freezer introduces a unique solution that freezes the product at an additional -2°C, yielding benefits such as improved product texture, increased capacity, and environmental friendliness by potentially eliminating the need for excessive cooling. Ultimately, this innovative approach promises energy savings, heightened product quality, and operational efficiency, all while being user-friendly and easy to install.
The ECO Cooling Homogenizer presents a comprehensive skid solution for the recovery of cooling water. This technology facilitates the recirculation of cooling water from various sources such as crankcase, gearbox, and steam condensation, offering a sustainable approach. ECO Cooling is compatible with Tetra Pak Direct UHT units equipped with Tetra Pak Homogenizers, and available upon request for Tetra Pak Indirect UHT units and Pasteurizers, as well as for other homogenizer brands.
The primary advantage lies in its remarkable reduction of cooling water consumption, particularly significant for homogenizer models consuming over 1000 liters per hour. Notably, this holds the potential for substantial water conservation, given that the water involved is primarily uncontaminated. This results in decreased operational costs while eliminating the expenses of adding new water and disposing of the old, underscoring the environmentally conscious and cost-effective nature of ECO Cooling Homogenizer.
Introducing our cutting-edge technology featuring a new double-ribbed cylinder, boasting an impressive 10% enhancement in heat transfer efficiency compared to our previous single-ribbed design. This innovation comes with a range of benefits for your operations:
Significantly heightened heat transfer capabilities Expanded cooling capacity within the same freezer footprint Backed by a one-year warranty Potential for increased earnings and profitability This upgrade not only ensures improved performance but also offers practical advantages in terms of operational efficiency and financial gains.
