Cutting water treatment costs with Virto-Cuccolini vibrating sieves
Virto-Cuccolini ’ s sieves improve water filtration efficiency in the Produce industry , particularly in the processing of harvested fruits and vegetables , in which water assumes a vital role in rinsing the product , facilitating its handling , peeling , and cutting .
Throughout the process , water progressively accumulates impurities and remnants of the product , such as peels , starches , and pulp fragments , thereby presenting challenges in water management prior to treatment by the purifier and subsequent reintroduction into the production cycle .
The separation of solid parts from the water before treatment simplifies the entire process , rendering it more operationally efficient and cost-effective .
To attain this objective , it is imperative to use a filter capable of capturing very small solid particles ( ranging from 0.5 mm to a few microns ). This includes starch , which , under certain circumstances , can give rise to foams that pose challenges in disposal .
The great variety of available sizes gives the possibility to both big-scale industrial projects and small pilot plants to find the best solution .
In this specific context , the Virto-Cuccolini vibrating sieves assume a key role in the solidliquid separation phase within an aqueous environment : they facilitate the efficient extraction of solid particles from the rinse water . This approach not only optimizes the processing workflow but also significantly diminishes the overall expenditures associated with water purification treatment .
