Evaporation system for dairy products
Optimize product quality with continuous evaporation, ensuring efficient moisture removal for a diverse range of dairy, juice, and plant-based products, all while minimizing energy consumption and floor space.
Evaporates and Concentrates Liquid Products
The Tetra Pak® Evaporator Falling Film TVR is engineered for continuous and fully automatic evaporation, specifically designed for high-capacity dairy and infant formula production. Utilizing a multi-effect evaporator design, it optimizes steam use and minimizes energy consumption. This equipment is ideal for producing a variety of end-products, such as whole milk powder, whey protein concentrate, and infant formula powders, as well as juice concentrates and plant-based milk alternatives.
With a capacity ranging from 100 to 50,000 kilograms per hour, it ensures efficient moisture removal while maintaining product integrity. The system is equipped with cyclone-type separators, offering an enhanced flow pattern that reduces the risk of bacterial growth and product build-up, ensuring long production runs without contamination issues. The compact design allows for minimal floor space requirements, making it suitable for integration into existing production lines.
Material options are tailored to meet specific product composition requirements, ensuring durability and resistance to wear. The equipment is designed to comply with rigorous industry standards for food safety and quality, and includes engineering support for customized configurations. Cleaning is streamlined with available sanitation-in-place systems, providing hot water treatment to ensure thorough and efficient maintenance.
