Thermal vapour recompressor (TVR) is available as an option to reduce steam consumption
Evaporation Plant
Padovan
Description: Desulphurisation plant for must with SO2
Sizes Available: from 2,500 l/h of sulphurised must.
Features:
-
Three-stage plate heat-exchanger for must inlet
-
Desulphurisation column with bubbling valve trays
-
SO2 neutralisation device by means of lime or caustic soda
-
A mechanical steam compressor is optional for greater reduction of steam composition
-
Designed to treat musts with 1,800 ppm of SO2 giving <80 ppm at the outlet (suitable for fermentation). If run at 50% of nominal capacity, it gives <10 ppm of SO2 at the outlet (suitable for human consumption)
