Fruit Juice Industry
Challenges
The drying process in the fruit juice industry is energy intensive and requires high expenditure of primary energy. Emissions like odours, dust and "blue haze" are also problematic. The recovery of the by-products is central, but can be difficult to manage (adhesiveness, stickiness).The dryer must therefore be very flexible and produce dried products of high quality.
The solution: SWISS COMBI ecoDry drum dryer, SWISS COMBI ecoWash flue gas scrubber
SWISS COMBI ecoDry enables gentle vapour drying with higher product quality. The drum dryer features a high drying capacity of up to 40t evaporation of water per hour.An inert drying atmosphere minimizes fire hazard. The drum dryer features a high availability and can be powered by alternative fuel.
SWISS COMBI ecoDry is designed to meet increasingly stringent emissions cut-off values. The closed-loop vapour system and integrated thermal oxidation process leads lower emission values.
SWISS COMBI ecoWash flue gas scrubber also enables low dust emissions for existing direct fired drum dryers.
