Aseptic sterilizers for fruit concentrates and pulp

Optimize your fruit processing by maintaining product quality and shelf life with advanced sterilization technology, ensuring aseptic conditions for sensitive purees and concentrates.

Sterilizes and Homogenizes Fruit Juices and Purees

The Sterilizer POSEIDON TCMA from Tropical Food Machinery is engineered for precise and reliable treatment of fruit pulps and concentrates. Utilizing a four-tube concentric system, it provides uniform heat treatment essential for aseptic packaging. Suitable for high viscosity products like mango puree and guava juice, its processing capacity spans from 500 kg/h to 15,000 kg/h. The sterilization module features automated controls for seamless integration into continuous operations. Constructed from AISI 316 stainless steel, it offers robust corrosion resistance. With a focus on energy efficiency, the system employs a steam-powered superheated water circuit for heat treatment, ensuring minimal energy consumption. The POSEIDON TCMA’s design also allows for easy integration with upstream and downstream processes like deaeration and homogenization, making it an indispensable component in juice production and fruit processing lines.
