DeGaS-Hot Column
For the production of quality beverages with long shelf life, and to prevent corrosion of boiler and piping systems, water needs to be deaerated. In a regenerative heat exchanger, the water is first heated to 72 °C or more
Centec
DeGaS-Cold Column
For the production of quality beverages with long shelf life, and to prevent corrosion of boiler and piping systems, water needs to be deaerated. Deaeration is performed at ambient temperature
Cleaning in Place
The purpose of Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) is to remove contaminations from wetted surfaces inside tanks, pipework and filling machines. A CIP cycle consists of various steps, e. g. pre-rinse with water, flushes with caustics and acid solutions, intermediate and final rinse with water.
Sterilization in Place
Where more stringent hygienic standards apply, sterilization-in-place (SIP) is done after CIP cleaning. SIP kills harmful microorganisms that may have survived CIP or in cases where Cleaning-in-Place is not performed.
Craft Line
Centec offer a selection of cost-effective process systems specifically designed for craft breweries. They are characterized by a lower level of automation and optional high precision sensor technology. The Centec Craft Line is easy to implement and to configure
EasyOmer
The EASYOMER system allows the economic use of hop products (natural hops, pellets, extract) due to a significantly increased yield of bitter substances. The compact unit can easily be integrated into an existing brew house.
CarboBlender
Carboblending combines High Gravity Blending (HGB) and carbonation in one step and allows producing different beers (brands) from one or few “mother beers”. Brewery productivity is thereby maximized for a comparatively small brew house capacity and a low number of fermentation tanks.
Carbonator
The Carbonator is used for continuous injection of carbon dioxide into liquid food and beverages such as beer, sparkling wine, and soft drinks. A precisely defined and constant CO2 content is an essential quality feature of many products.
DeCarbonator
The DeCarbonator is used for continuous adjustment and especially reduction of the CO2 content of liquid food and beverages such as beer, sparkling wine, and soft drinks. Highly efficient membrane modules allow the CO2 concentration to be increased and decreased with extraordinary accuracy
RevoTec Reverse Osmosis
REVOTEC produces demineralized water perfectly suited for beverages, as boiler feed water and for treatment in subsequent purification steps. If a semipermeable membrane is placed between pure water and water with dissolved ions (salts) osmosis will come into play.
Water Pre Treatment
Raw water quality depends greatly on its source. Based on the raw water quality and the specifications for the purified water, Centec select the most appropriate technologies for each client. Usually, multi-stage regimes are necessary for water purification.
Flash Pasto
Flash Pasteurization
By flash pasteurization harmful microorganisms in beverages and liquid food are killed with the aim of improving microbiological stability and shelf life of the product. The FlashPasto skid is designed to pasteurize the product gently without adversely affecting its colour, its taste or its digestibility.
Wort Cooler
Cooling of Wort
The Wort Cooler reduces the temperature of wort to the required pitching temperature. In breweries, cooling is typically performed after wort boiling and trub separation
Wort Aerator
Aeration of Wort
The Wort Aerator is used for the continuous and highly accurate injection of oxygen or sterile air into beer wort. The solubility of oxygen in wort depends on the temperature. The colder the liquid, the better is the oxygen solubility. Therefore, aeration is done after cooling of the wort.
DeGas – Membrane (DGS)
Membrane Water Deaeration
To produce quality beverages with long shelf life, and to prevent corrosion of boiler and piping systems, water needs to be deaerated. Based on the use of highly effective membrane modules, extraordinarily low values of residual oxygen are achieved.
IonTec
Water Softening & Demineralization
IONTEC softens or demineralizes water used for beverages or for other purposes (e. g. for heating, cooling, cleaning). For ion exchange there are ion exchange resins in the unit. They contain loosely held cations or anions.
