Pet food processing company with numerous locations throughout the United States required a method for heating ground frozen chicken meat slurry. The existing scraped surface heat exchanger yielded inconsistent heating results and required frequent cleaning.
Ground Meat Slurry (0.6 Specific Heat) Specific Gravity: 7.5 lb/gallon Product Flow Rate: 100 GPM Temperature Rise: 130°F Steam Supply Pressure: 80 PSIG Steam Flow Required: 3318 lb/hr
Pick SC50-1 Sanitary Heater with 4" tri-clamp connections was specified to handle the heavy consistency of the meat slurry. Steam injection provided tight temperature control and a thorough, even heating of the meat slurry. The process was duplicated at five other company facilities.
