Industrial continuous heat treatment for dry ingredients

Optimize your production line with a continuous system that ensures precise heat treatment for bulk solids, enhancing both efficiency and product quality while maintaining safety and environmental standards.

Roasts, Sterilizes, and Pasteurizes Grains and Seeds

The Revtech Versatile Continuous Coil Roaster, an innovation from Revtech Process Systems, excels in the precise roasting, pasteurization, and sterilization of grains, seeds, and nuts. Employing a patented process, it utilizes electrical heating combined with vibrational transport in a closed spiral system for consistent and efficient heat treatment. It is ideal for producing a range of end-products such as beer malt, roasted oats, and pasteurized almonds, while ensuring safety with a validated reduction of pathogens like salmonella.

Capable of continuous, fully automated operation, this system integrates seamlessly into existing production lines. It boasts significant energy efficiency, consuming approximately 100 kW/ton for pasteurization, and between 150 to 300 kW/ton for roasting, enabled by optimized heat transfer and low steam usage. Constructed from durable stainless steel, it guarantees corrosion resistance and longevity.

With compliance to FDA standards and certifications from the Almond Board of California, the equipment is tailored for food and chemical industry manufacturers prioritizing cleanliness and safety. Its design facilitates easy cleaning and maintenance, supported by Revtech’s engineering teams for any customization needs.
