Water of excellent quality and purity is required for mixing fruit juice drinks, soft drinks, or fruit juices. The water must support the good taste of the beverage and must not react with the ingredients. For example, fruit acids must not be neutralized. Furthermore, the microbiological purity of the water is an important criterion. The standardization of products and production also requires standardized raw materials. Consequently, desalinated product water that does not have negative interactions with other components of the final product is being used more and more frequently. In most cases, reverse osmosis is used for this purpose. Modern systems are made entirely of stainless steel and can therefore be cleaned and sanitized regularly without chemicals using hot water when needed.
Typical processes in the non-alcoholic beverage sector:
Iron removal, manganese removal, filtration, decarbonization, ion exchange, reverse osmosis/nanofiltration, disinfection, UV irradiation, water recycling for cleaning water, ultrafiltration.
The contract bottler DIS B.V. produces approximately 250 different products for around 40 clients. In 2013, the company built a new canning line for a major soft drink manufacturer and commissioned ATN to design and build the associated water treatment system. The scope of services included planning, design, engineering, delivery, installation, and commissioning of the turnkey system.
Increased availability and efficiency, filling flexibility, minimized wastewater generation, a very tight construction schedule mandated by the client, rapid procurement of the certificates required by the soft drink manufacturer for the filter media and UV disinfection units, and a compact layout for the activated carbon filter, multi-layer filters, rinse water collection tank, and specifically the reverse osmosis unit (which was mounted on a frame).
Our team of specialists looks forward to answering your questions.
