Tubular Pasteurizer
Continuous Thermal Processing for Liquid and Viscous Food Products
The Mavi Mak Tubular Pasteurizer is designed for continuous and controlled heat treatment of liquid, semi-liquid, and viscous food products.
Using an indirect tubular heat exchange system, the product is heated to the required pasteurization temperature, maintained for a defined holding time, and then cooled to the required outlet temperature.
Each system is engineered according to the product characteristics, required capacity, processing temperature, viscosity, particle content, and final filling conditions.
Applications
The Tubular Pasteurizer can be designed for a wide range of food and beverage products, including:
- Milk and dairy products
- Ayran and drinking yogurt
- Fruit juices and nectars
- Smoothies
- Tomato juice and tomato-based products
- Sauces
- Ketchup
- Fruit preparations
- Syrups
- Concentrates
- Liquid and semi-viscous food products
- Products containing fibres or small particles
How It Works
The product enters the system through a balance tank and is transferred by a sanitary product pump to the tubular heat exchanger.
Depending on the required process, the system can include:
1. Product Feeding
The product is continuously supplied from the balance tank to the pasteurization system.
2. Preheating / Heat Regeneration
The incoming cold product can be preheated using recovered thermal energy from the outgoing hot product, helping reduce energy consumption.
3. Final Heating
The product is indirectly heated using hot water or another suitable heating medium until the required pasteurization temperature is reached.
4. Holding Section
The heated product passes through a specially designed holding tube to maintain the required temperature for the specified processing time.
5. Cooling
After pasteurization, the product is cooled to the required outlet or filling temperature.
6. Product Outlet
The pasteurized product is transferred to the filling machine, buffer tank, or next processing stage.
Complete Line Integration
The Tubular Pasteurizer can be supplied as a standalone processing unit or integrated into a complete production line including:
Mixing Tank → Homogenizer → Tubular Pasteurizer → Buffer Tank → Filling Machine → Capping → Labeling → Packaging
Mavi Mak provides engineering, manufacturing, automation, installation, commissioning, and technical support for complete processing and filling solutions.
