Low-energy evaporation system for dairy products
Enhance product quality and lower energy costs with a cutting-edge evaporation system that optimizes condensate quality while minimizing floor space and reducing steam and electricity consumption. Ideal for continuous operations requiring efficient evaporation of various liquid products.
Evaporates and Concentrates Liquid Products Efficiently
The Tetra Pak® Falling Film MVR Evaporator is a cutting-edge solution designed for continuous evaporation and concentration of liquid products across dairy, food, and beverage industries. Its innovative use of mechanical vapor recompression minimizes energy use by relying on electricity, eliminating the need for steam-driven processes. This evaporator handles a range of materials from whole milk powder to fruit juice concentrates, supporting capacities from 1 to 100 tonnes per hour. Its cyclone-type separators extend operational run times up to 20 hours without bacterial growth, ensuring product purity and minimizing losses. Integrated with smart design for small factory footprints, the system is PLC-controlled, facilitating seamless integration into existing production lines. Customizable preheating options and materials ensure compatibility with diverse processing needs, from high-heat conditions to corrosive environments, while maintaining compliance with industry standards. The CIP system included allows for efficient cleaning, reducing downtime and ensuring hygiene standards are met.
