Lanemark brings heating benefits to small brewery process application
BOILERS & MAINTENANCE
A gas process heating system from Lanemark Combustion Engineering is now fully operational at a leading micro-brewery in London , Villages Brewery , with operational efficiency gains .
“ We installed a liquid heating TX 25E burner package on a brewing kettle supplied by Bespoke Brewing Solutions , with whom we liaised closely throughout the project ,” says Lanemark ’ s Process Burner Sales Manager , Adrian Cadman . “ This provides a capacity of 30 hl – or 18 UK barrels .”
Utilising the existing natural gas supply , the Lanemark installation includes an exhaust fan , damper , digital temperature controls and gas valve train . The burner fires through the external wall of the vessel into a submerged 2½ ” nb . stainless steel tubular helical coil heat exchanger which optimises heat transfer with minimum space intrusion .
Archie Village , Director at Deptford-based Villages Brewery , highlights the role played by the new installation .
“ The facility is central to all our brewing operations , so must perform reliably every time ,” he says . “ The overall aim of the project has been to facilitate an increase in production output while building on the high quality that is at the heart of our reputation – and the Lanemark system is already
delivering in both respects .”
The burner installation raises the temperature of the liquid from a starting point of 65 ° C to the optimum process value of 102 ° C in just 66 minutes . The modulating gas and air control of the system then allows the target temperature to be maintained – of particular note in brewing applications where the need to maintain a ‘ rolling boil ’ is often vital .
