Tunnel Pasteurizer Water Treatment

Our service programs, biocides and treatment technologies help control microbiological growth and biofouling to ensure package quality and product safety.

<p><span data-contrast="auto">Beverages are pasteurized after filling into their final package to extend their shelf-life.&nbsp; Bottles, cans and their contents are conveyed through different sections of a tunnel pasteurizer through a gradual heating and cooling process. Each section has its own water spray system, collection sump, circulation pump and screen/filter box.</span> <span data-contrast="auto">&nbsp;</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Tunnel pasteurizers can experience microbiological growth, bio-fouling, corrosion and inorganic scale deposition.&nbsp; If not addressed, these issues can have a negative impact on safety, heat transfer efficiency, utility usage, process reliability, maintenance and system integrity.&nbsp; Package and beverage quality, productivity, operational efficiency and total cost of ownership can also be detrimentally affected.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Our solutions address the key issues of microbiological growth, corrosion, deposition and scale build-up for process reliability and package quality.</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Microbiological Growth</span><span data-ccp-props="{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}">&nbsp;</span></strong></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Proliferation of Pseudomonas and other microorganisms can lead to the development of biofouling.&nbsp; As well as blocking spray nozzles, screens and filters, increasing cleaning maintenance requirements and impacting aesthetic aspects of the system (slime and odor), it can form a protective environment for corrosive sulfate-reducing bacteria and pathogens such as Legionella.
