Corrugated tube heat exchanger intended for the heating of sardine pieces and tuna heads
A manufacturer company of fish products, benchmark in the Southeast Asian market, has once again trusted our firm and commissioned SACOME to design and manufacturing of a corrugated tube heat exchanger intended for the heating of sardine pieces and tuna heads.
The client wanted to take advantage of this waste-product generated during its production process, by transform it into a by-product with added value, being used for animal feeding.
The heat exchanger has been dimensioned for a capacity between 8,000 and 10,000 kg / h of product and a pasteurization temperature of 90 ºC since the client had hot water and low-pressure steam systems. In this sense, the client requested us to optimize the intake of both services in order to achieve the most compact and economic solution with the lowest possible steam consumption.
With these client requirements, our technicians proposed a solution based on our S-TF20-I heat exchanger, being a very efficient thermal solution and at the same time, the best solution to minimize the risks of blockage in the product channel.

The importance of rheology in the design of food plants
The importance of rheology in the design of any processing plant is crucial since the sizing of many of the elements composing it is very dependent on this “resistance”, also taking special relevance with food products: heat exchangers, pipes, valves, pumps, mixers, etc.
How to design a heat exchanger
To design a heat exchanger it is necessary to have certain data, such as the process flow rate, the temperature and the physical properties of products.
