Pasteurisation and concentration technology
Pasteurising to stabilise and preserve fruit juices
To maintain safety and preserve food, it is essential to use machinery that allows you to perform a heat treatment at about 85°C known as pasteurisation. In the fruit juice industry, pasteurisation is used to make this type of product safe and to prolong its shelf life. In addition to fulfilling the production needs of various customers, Sfoggiatech looks for the best solution to reduce energy consumption by offering machinery that recovers up to 90% of the energy required for the process.
The concentration process is the one which is used to remove part of the water from a product in order to reduce its volume and increase its density. Well-known examples of this are concentrated fruit juices, tomato sauce or condensed milk. In the juice industry, concentration is used to prepare a concentrate which will be used to make beverages. Flash or tunnel pasteurisation systems and membrane or evaporation concentrators are types of technology that have always been part of Sfoggiatech’s technical expertise.
