Canned Coffee Sterilization Retort
The canned coffee sterilization retort is specially designed for the thermal sterilization of canned and bottled coffee beverages, ensuring product safety and extended shelf life while preserving the original aroma and flavor of coffee.
It is suitable for a wide range of high-temperature-resistant packaging materials, including metal cans, glass bottles, PET bottles, and heat-resistant plastic cups.
Operation Process
- Filling the autoclave and water injection
First, load the product to be sterilized into the autoclave and close the door. Depending on the product’s filling temperature requirements, inject process water at the preset sterilization temperature from the hot water tank into the autoclave until the preset liquid level is reached. A small amount of process water can also be injected into the spray pipe through the heat exchanger.
- Heating Sterilization
The circulation pump circulates the process water on one side of the heat exchanger and sprays it while steam is injected on the other side of the heat exchanger to heat the water to the set temperature. The control valve adjusts the steam flow to stabilize the temperature. Hot water is atomized and sprayed onto the product surface to ensure uniform sterilization. Temperature sensors and PID function control the temperature fluctuations.
- Cooling and Temperature Reduction
After sterilization is completed, stop the steam injection, open the cold water valve, and inject cooling water into the other side of the heat exchanger to achieve temperature reduction of the process water and products inside the kettle.
- Drainage and Completion
Drain the remaining water, release pressure through the exhaust valve, and complete the sterilization process.
