Consistent Beverage Quality Through Precise Disinfection Monitoring

Water management is an increasingly important and challenging issue, particularly in light of concerns such as water scarcity. Greater value is thus being placed on disinfection processes. To protect against bacteria, viruses and other harmful organisms, drinking water requires disinfection and hygiene measures. This also applies to the environment in order that lakes and water-based activities can be enjoyed without hesitation. Disinfection processes play a large role in industrial processes as well. In the beverage industry, drinking water flows directly into the products, while surface waters are frequently used as a coolant in other segments such as energy generation. In this case the disinfection process ensures that no biofilms or bacterial lawns form in the coolant pipes or tanks, which can reduce the cooling capacity.

Aseptic Process Diaphragm Pump for Field Trials on Homogenization of Demanding Emulsions

Emulsions are finely dispersed mixtures of normally immiscible liquids. They end up on consumers' tables as homogenized milk in the food sector, for example. They primarily consist of water, fat and protein. According to their nature, the fat droplets contained in raw milk are not very homogeneous. For process engineering reasons, it is therefore important to reduce their size in advance and achieve an even distribution. This is the only way that the end product can meet both the quality requirements of the manufacturer and consumer expectations. However, as there are increasingly demanding emulsions in other areas besides the familiar milk, such as baby food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics or fine chemicals as end products or even just intermediate products, which require the highest purity in particular, LEWA has developed the LEWA homogenizer test system. The system can be used to test the aseptic functioning of a homogenizer based on a hygienic hermetic process diaphragm pump. Thanks to a homogenizing valve that is also hygienic, it can be flexibly adjusted to the requirements of different emulsions. The compact system can be integrated into both the circuit ("stand-alone") and the process line, enabling it to be continuously operated aseptically. The fluid is supplied via an integrated heatable vessel or a separate media connection. Visitors to Anuga FoodTec can see the compact, flexible pilot plant and its possible applications at booth D085 in hall 4.1 and discuss potential customer benefits.
