Industrial retort for food sterilization

Achieve uniform sterilization and cooling in your batch production processes while minimizing energy and water consumption, ensuring product integrity and higher throughput efficiency for both solid and liquid products.

Sterilizes and Cools Batch Products Efficiently

The SuperStatic Retort by JBT is an innovative piece of equipment engineered to revolutionize batch sterilization and thermal processing. This retort stands out due to its incorporation of a Steam Water Spray (SWS) system, paired with a LOGTEC Process Controller, ensuring uniform heat distribution and precise process control. Designed for food, pet food, and pharmaceutical industries, it efficiently handles products ranging from canned beans and soups to poultry and pharmaceutical syrups.

The retort achieves significant energy savings with its high-capacity heat exchanger and low energy suction system, reducing steam and cooling water usage. It boasts a 30% reduction in come-up times and a 34% reduction in cooling times, maximizing throughput without compromising product integrity. Constructed from stainless steel, it resists corrosion and is equipped with clog-resistant nozzles for minimal maintenance requirements.

Fully automated and easily integrated into existing production lines, the SuperStatic Retort supports batch operations and is ideal for facilities seeking sustainable and efficient thermal processing solutions. Its design meets stringent industry standards, providing reliable and consistent sterilization to enhance product safety and quality.

Benefits

  • Increases production efficiency with 30% faster come-up and 34% quicker cooling times.
