Secondary solids recovery system for citrus pulp
In citrus processing, maximizing juice yield is crucial. Traditional methods for recovering secondary solids from citrus pulp can be cost-prohibitive and complex, involving extensive on-site installations. This presents a challenge for optimizing yield in a cost-effective manner without compromising process efficiency.
Maximize juice yield with efficient pulp washing
The READYGo™ PULPWASH by JBT is a specialized system designed to recover secondary solids from citrus pulp efficiently. Unlike traditional three-stage systems, this four-stage process is skid-mounted and simplifies installation and operation, reducing costs and space requirements. The gentler separation and shorter residence time during the process result in significantly reduced pectin in the pulp wash liquor, which enhances evaporation efficiency. Compatible with all varieties of citrus, as well as pineapple and other pulpy fruits, the READYGo™ PULPWASH can increase juice yield by up to eight percent.
Benefits
- Increases juice yield by up to 8%
- More cost-efficient than traditional systems
- Simplifies installation with a small footprint
- Improves evaporation efficiency through gentler separation
- Compatible with multiple citrus varieties and other pulpy fruits
