Processing of palm oil and its derivates
For over 40 years SACOME has manufactured tubular heat exchangers for its clients in the Southeast Asia. In this precious part of the world, the processing of palm oil and its derivatives for the industry is very common due to its extensive plantations of this fruit. In this project our client requested the replacement of 2 tubular heat exchangers supplied 19 years ago. Furthermore, our client requested to expand the production capacity of fatty acids to adapt the new production needs. For applications with vegetable oils and animal fats, we usually opted for our Industrial Line Heat Exchangers. However, as a result of the particular design conditions applying in this project, we have opted for our S-TFM-I sanitary heat exchanger. Finally it is to be noted that, we have provided the freight in CIF conditions (Port of Penang).

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.
