Cooling Technologies for a High-Quality Food Process_Case Study

Cooling technologies for the food industry

Cooling technologies for food industry must help preserve the quality of the finished product (and of the process liquid): this is true even more than in other industries. Closed circuit cooling towers and “hybrid towers” can make their contribution. It is fundamental to grant the operational plant continuity of the cooling system.

Installation Context:

Installation Context: animal food, fruits and preserves, tomato industry,
dairy industry.

Requirements:

Requirements: preserve coolant quality, highly variable output temperatures, operational continuity.

Overview of Cooling Technologies:

Overview of Cooling Technologies: dry coolers, adiabatic dry coolers, closed circuit cooling towers.

Cooling technologies for the food industry: three examples

Cooling technologies for the food industry must help preserve the quality of the finished product (and process liquid) even more than in other sectors.

Three examples of cooling needs applied to as many food industries:

  • Tomato concentrate process
  • Recovery of whey in cheese production
  • Artisan ice cream parlors 

In the tomato concentrate process, cooling technologies are used to cool the water coming from the barometric mixture condenser.

In the second process described, the cooler serves to carry out a first cooling of the whey, by means of a suitable exchanger.

In the case of artisan ice-cream parlors, the evaporative cooling tower cools the water coming from the condensers.
