Juice clarification and fermentation liquid filtration processes

1. Juice Clarification Process
The core of juice clarification lies in removing suspended particles and colloids to improve transparency and extend shelf life. The application of YNTO automated valves in various stages significantly enhances process precision and automation:

Enzyme Reaction Control: During the enzymatic stage, YNTO control valves adjust the flow rate and distribution of enzyme agents according to process parameters, ensuring even reactions and preventing overreaction or uneven processing. This optimizes the clarification outcome.

Fine Filtration Control: In membrane filtration, juice passes through various membranes to remove microparticles and colloids. YNTO electric valves precisely regulate the pressure differential across the membrane, optimizing flow rates to prevent clogging or membrane damage under high pressure, ensuring process stability.

Clarified Juice Transport: After clarification, the juice is transferred to storage tanks or further processing. YNTO pneumatic valves intelligently switch pipelines, ensuring seamless fluid transfer while avoiding residual liquid contamination. Optimized pressure control prevents turbulence or bubble formation during transport.

2. Fermentation Liquid Filtration Process
The filtration process for fermentation liquids demands high precision and efficiency, as it directly affects product quality and subsequent steps. YNTO automated valves enhance the efficiency and precision of fermentation liquid handling:

Pre-treatment Solid-Liquid Separation: Before entering the filtration system, fermentation liquids often undergo pre-treatment for solid-liquid separation. YNTO control valves accurately manage the flow rate and discharge speed of fermentation liquids, ensuring effective separation of solid particles, thereby improving subsequent filtration efficiency.

Membrane and Deep Filtration: Fermentation liquids pass through membrane or deep filtration to remove fine impurities. YNTO electric valves precisely control the pressure on the membrane surface throughout the filtration process. By finely adjusting system pressure, they maintain the ideal pressure differential across the membrane, ensuring filtration accuracy, membrane longevity, and preventing blockages or damage.

Fluid Transfer and Collection: During the transfer of filtered fermentation liquid, YNTO pneumatic valves seamlessly switch pipeline channels under high cleanliness requirements. They also control flow speed and pressure, avoiding turbulence or secondary contamination by small particles, ensuring the pure transfer of fermentation liquid.

3. Automated Cleaning and Maintenance
To ensure continuous efficiency in juice clarification and fermentation liquid filtration processes, equipment needs periodic Clean-in-Place (CIP) operations. YNTO electric and pneumatic valves automatically control the flow, temperature, and pressure of cleaning solutions, ensuring thorough cleaning and sterilization of all pipelines and filtration components, greatly reducing manual intervention and downtime.

Conclusion
By providing precise fluid control, dynamic pressure adjustment, and automated channel switching, YNTO automated valves offer highly reliable technical support for juice clarification and fermentation liquid filtration processes. They significantly enhance production efficiency, product quality, and equipment lifespan while maintaining system stability and safety under varying process conditions, contributing to a more intelligent and energy-efficient operation.
