Aseptic tank module for liquid food storage
In the dairy, food, and beverage industries, maintaining product quality and safety during storage and transfer is critical after sterilization. Challenges like production variations or planned downtime require reliable, adaptable solutions to store sterilized liquids without compromising aseptic conditions.
Enhance product storage and transfer post-sterilization
The Steritank aseptic tank module from Alfa Laval offers a reliable solution for safely storing sterilized liquid and viscous food products. This intermediate buffer tank improves product quality by eliminating the need to recirculate products through the sterilizer, ensuring continuous flow directly to the filler. With its robust design, it operates efficiently under difficult conditions such as absolute vacuum and pressures up to 6 bar (87 psi). The Steritank module is customizable, available in multiple heights and diameters to fit varied processing requirements and space constraints. It can integrate seamlessly with other aseptic line equipment, including aseptic magnetic mixers. The system also features thorough cleaning-in-place processes between batches, maintaining a contaminant-free environment. Alfa Laval ensures global support with a skilled local service network, enhancing operational reliability and process flexibility.
