20110030918 | Method and Device for Heating, In Particular Highly Viscous Products - A method for heating, in particular of highly viscous products, and a device for performing the method, wherein the product is pre-heated to a first temperature T1 in a first step with at least one product/water heat exchanger section with water as the heating medium, wherein the water cools down. The product is further heated to a second temperature T2 in a second step with at least one product/product heat exchanger section | 02-10-2011 |
20110056663 | Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger - A shell-and-tube heat exchanger for the treatment of juices and juice-type foodstuff products with medium to high viscosity, with at least one jacket tube containing at least one inner tube, whereby the inner tube and/or the jacket tube is or are formed as a swirl tube with multi-start spirals running like a thread at an angle to the tube axis, a crossed and twisted tube with crossing spirals at least essentially symmetrical to the tube axis, each with an angle of incidence between 67° and 72° to the tube axis, i.e. with an angle of twist of 23° to 18° to the tube axis, is used as an inner and/or outer tube. The spiral depth is about 0.8 mm to 1.2 mm. | 03-10-2011 |
20110209796 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE STERILE FILLING OF TWO DIFFERENT PRODUCT FLOWS INTO A CONTAINER - A method and an apparatus for the sterile filling of two different product flows into a container, where the first product flow is thermally treated for pasteurizing/sterilizing, is cooled down and fed to a filling valve, and the second product flow is thermally treated for pasteurizing/sterilizing, and then, in the hot state, is added to the first product flow upstream of or in the filling valve. | 09-01-2011 |
20120144778 | Method and Device for Aseptic Filling - A method and a device for the aseptic filling of a liquid food product that contains at least one solid particle, including disinfection with a disinfection unit of at least a part of the external surface of at least one first container which contains the solid particle, and disinfection of at least a second container, opening of the disinfected first container with an opening unit and removal of the solid particle, and filling via a filling unit of a disinfected second container with the solid particle and a liquid food. | 06-14-2012 |
20120167991 | Swirl Element, Inlet Valve, Device and Method for Evaporating or Driving out Highly Volatile ... - A swirl element is provided for an inlet valve of a brewing vessel for introducing a liquid, in particular a mash, a wort, a yeast suspension, a sparge water or the like into the brewing vessel, in particular into a mash tun, a mash vat, a combined mash/wort tun, a combined mash/wort/stripping tun, a wort tun, a combined whirlpool tun, a whirlpool, a clarifying device, an evaporating vessel or the like, comprising at least one flow-directing element by means of which an angular momentum can be imparted to the liquid flowing through the inlet valve. An evaporating device comprises a brewing vessel, also for evaporating highly volatile substances/gases, in particular highly volatile flavor substances, DMS, carbon dioxide, oxygen or the like from the aforementioned liquids. The brewing vessel comprises the swirl element and/or an inlet valve admitting the liquid. A brewing process evaporates highly volatile substances/gases from the aforementioned liquids. | 07-05-2012 |
20120247730 | BEVERAGE HEATING SYSTEM WITH INTEGRATED COMBUSTION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF HEATING BEVERAGES - A heating system for a beverage processing system with a beverage flow consisting of a beverage to be processed, with a secondary flow of a heat conducting medium, where the secondary flow is passed in a closed secondary circuit, with at least one heat exchanger, through which the secondary current flows and is arranged such that it is able to transfer heat to the beverage flow. A combustion system is arranged in the secondary flow such that heat generated by the combustion system can be passed on to the heat conducting medium. Also, a method of heating beverages with a combustion system. | 10-04-2012 |
20130089649 | STRIPPING METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REMOVING UNDESIRED SUBSTANCES FROM WORT - A stripping method and a device for removing undesired flavoring substances from wort, including introducing the wort into a stripping container and producing a film that flows downward, blowing stripping gas into the stripping container in such a way that a stripping gas flow is produced, and discharging the wort. | 04-11-2013 |
