To attain a better quality product when pasteurising, homogenising or filling the product into containers, the presence of air must be avoided or minimised. During product preparations air encapsulation is common, especially on laboratory and pilot scale. A deaerator system optimises conditions by the removal of air and gas by method of controlled vacuum and temperature. No chemical stripping gases are used. Benefits of deaerated products • Increased product stability • Prevents oxidation • Improved product shelf life • Reduced volume of packaging. • Colour retention • Taste retention • Better homogenisation characteristics • Better heat transfer characteristics Further improvement to the product quality is achieved through an aroma recovery process. Aroma is recovered within a condenser and reintroduced into the product. Introduction of the OMVE DEA laboratory / pilot Deaerator The OMVE laboratory & pilot deaerators remove gasses from a broad range of products. The deaerators are specifically designed for laboratory and pilot applications. To simulate industrial deaeration processes and gain similar results on R&D or Pilot scale OMVE has developed three main types of deaeration systems. These systems can be used stand-alone or inline.
