Less energy required
October 1st 2004

Wisbech-based Greenvale Foods has installed extraction equipment made by the air services division of Carter Environmental Engineers (CEE) to remove starch and product-laden steam from its potato processing plant.

The system was designed and installed by Environmental Engineering UK, including fanset, ductwork and noise attenuation. It provides extraction of starch-laden steam from cooking and dehydration processes, with cleaned air and steam vented to atmosphere.

Combining multi-stage cleaning in a single unit, the Carter-Midac Cyclovent is said to typically require 25% less energy for the same efficiency than conventional single-stage venturi scrubbers.
