HEAT EXCHANGERS DRY COOLERS CONDENSERS
Food & Beverage tube heat exchangers, such as the HRS MI Series, or a gentle scraped surface heat exchange like the HRS Unicus Series( with its characteristic reciprocal action) are ideal for processing coconut milk.
Coconut oil Coconut oil is extracted from the dried coconut kernels known as copra. Pre-treatment heating to between 40-60 ° C has been shown to not only improve oil yields, but also to deactivate some
About the author
After graduating as an industrial technical engineer from the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena( in Murcia, Spain) in 1990, Francisco worked in the refrigeration, air conditioning and food machinery manufacturing sectors. He joined HRS Heat Exchangers in 1994 as a Design Engineer and played a crucial role in developing the Engineering Office in the rapidly expanding company. In 2010 Francisco was appointed as the global Food Business Director for HRS. In this role he supports the various HRS Group sales offices around the world. His extensive technical knowledge, acquired during his years as a design engineer, along with his ability to understand the needs of the client, have made Francisco one of the top experts in the food processing industry. of the enzymes in the oil, which could otherwise affect the final quality. Depending on the end use, it may be subject to a wide range of subsequent processing including hydrogenating, degumming, deacidification, decolorization, and deodorization – all of which need accurate temperature control at a range of different temperatures. Because many of these processes also generate large quantities of steam, there is significant scope to install heat exchangers to condense this steam for reuse, and many systems will be designed to maximize energy recovery( energy regeneration) to improve overall energy efficiency and reduce costs. With more than forty years’ experience in the thermal processing of vegetable oils and coconut products, HRS Heat Exchangers has a wide selection of both standalone heat exchangers and integrated systems for use in coconut processing.
