Air and/or foam dissolved in liquid is troublesome in liquid type food manufacturing plant, hampering smooth flow within the equipment and precise measurement of its volume.
In addition, should air be dissolved in milk or juice etc, it accelerates oxidisation and deteriorates freshness and taste.
Conventional degassing and defoaming equipments employing large tank, in which food is degassed or defoamed naturally and slowly, have mostly been used to prevent such trouble.
Although there was a method employed for shortening time of degassing or defoaming, saving time was limited.
In such a situation Yokota degassing and defoaming equipments which enable quick and continuous degassing and defoaming have debuted and monopolised the Japanese domestic market.
It is needless to say that these equipments have been watched by food industry with keen interest for improvement of quality and efficiency in production process.
These equipments, through their patented mechanism, remove gas mixed in liquid by centrifugal force, and the maximum capacity per hour is 4000 litres(Model ASP-0510).
For demonstration of performance, Yokota leases these equipments overseas subject to nondisclosure pledge and deposit.
