In Two Stages to a Minimum Value of Residual Oxygen.
Oxygen in
beer or soft drinks affects the preservability and the taste. Therefore, it is
important to use an optimally deaerated water for the production of soft drinks
and the adjustment of original wort or alcohol content respectively.
GEA Diessel 2-stage water deaerating system type DIOX-2™ achieves an
excellent value of residual oxygen and is thus especially suitable for these
and some further applications.
In the first stage the largest part of
oxygen is extracted by pure vacuum deaeration. Being mixed with CO2, the
predeaerated water is carried into the second stage. CO2 increases the release
of oxygen. The CO2-oxygen mixture is also sucked off by the aid of the vacuum
pump (P3) via tank B1 in the reverse flow direction of the spray jet, thus
increasing the deaerating effect of the first stage. By a discharge pump (P2)
the deaerated water is carried to the consumer.
The sealing water
consumption is minimized by the integrated temperature control. Detectors for
pressure, level, and possibly oxygen monitor the system for its proper
function. The system is cleaned via the product path.
