Secondary solids recovery system for citrus pulp

Optimize your juice yield and enhance efficiency with a streamlined four-stage system that recovers secondary solids from citrus pulp, transforming it into a valuable byproduct while minimizing costs and installation effort.

Recovers and Washes Pulp Solids Efficiently

The READYGo™ PULPWASH by JBT is a skid-mounted pulp recovery system designed to enhance juice yield in fruit and vegetable processing. This equipment utilizes a four-stage separation process to efficiently recover secondary solids, increasing juice yield by up to eight percent. Suitable for citrus, pineapple, and other pulpy fruits, it supports applications in producing orange juice, lemon concentrate, grapefruit pulp, and more. The system operates continuously, featuring gentle separation that minimizes pectin in the pulp wash liquor, thus boosting evaporation efficiency. Its compact design reduces installation costs and can easily integrate into existing processing lines. The READYGo™ PULPWASH is constructed for durability and includes options for on-site service and maintenance, ensuring consistent performance and minimal downtime.

Benefits
