Introducing a new heat treatment technology for oat beverage

When a liquid food producer in northern Europe was looking to replace an existing heat exchanger which they used for heating up oat-base, they deviated from the conventional path by not choosing a shell & tube solution. Instead, they chose an HL8-WG from Alfa Laval’s Hygienic line. The new equipment was installed, and testing began in the autumn of 2019. Since then, the heat exchanger has been delivering a whole series of benefits, including minimized fouling, longer cleaning intervals, superior cleanability, and easier maintenance.
