Using a vortex layer apparatus to increase the yield of pectin from beet pulp
Today, much attention is paid to the development of technologies for obtaining pectin from beet pulp – an effective detoxifier and radioprotector. In industrial production, pectin is extracted from apple and citrus pomace, beet pulp, sunflower baskets, but the pulp is the most economically profitable type of pectin-containing raw material. The content of pectin substancesRead More
Filtration of Vegetable Oil
Vegetable oil is a product made from oily raw material by extrusion and extraction processes. A combination of these methods is used slightly less often: the first stage is extrusion, and the second one is extraction. The extrusion process involves pressing of oily raw material from pre-treated sunflower seeds. Extraction is based on diffusion andRead More
Mayonnaise and its production in AVS
The AVS-100 vortex layer device is used successfully in food production to make mayonnaise and various sauces. Using the AVS reduces the complexity of the technology process and its duration, while improving the product’s dispersion. The device intensifies the process by eliminating some of the stages and reducing the cost of the product, improving itsRead More
Vegetable oil degumming: equipment choice
Vegetable oil degumming is the removal of phospholipids from the crude product. Those are fat-like substances, highly valuable biologically. Actual content of phospholipids in vegetable oil varies from 0.2 to 4.5% and depends on the specific substance and the method of oil production. Immediately after oil extraction, phospholipids are solved in the oil, but canRead More
Vegetable oil filtration
Vegetable oil is a made from seed feedstock by pressing or extraction. Combined method, where pressing is used initially, followed by extraction, is somewhat less common. The process of pressing the oil involves subjecting the prepared seeds to high pressure. Extraction is based on diffusion and involves extraction of oil by extraction solvents (hexane). ExtractionRead More
GlobeCore magnetic strainers to capture metal in food production
One of the possible applications of vortex layer generators is the processing of liquid phase and heterogenic systems. This equipment allows to intensify processes in various industries: food production, chemical, microbiological, petrochemical, etc. The principle of vortex layer device operation is based on chaotic motion of ferromagnetic elements in a rotating magnetic field. A layerRead More
