How does the Alfa Laval Extend heat exchanger accessory work in biofilm prevention
Alfa Laval Extend™ is an expertly engineered electrical pod connected to the inlet and outlet pipes of the pasteurizer. It sends a weak current through the plate pack, preventing bacteria from attaching to the surface. This innovative solution works without chemicals, coatings, or contact with the product, and can be installed by in-house engineers without disturbing production.
"You need a lot of water to process, you need a lot of water to to clean. The industry is actually in areas that are at times experiencing water scarcity. It is rising on everybody's agenda." says Anna Andrys, Project manager at Alfa Laval.
"By installing Extend, we control biofilm. Biofilm is today the reason for why we stop and clean. It actually works through electricity. We are sending an electrical current through the heat exchanger. So we're changing the surface of the plates. And by doing so, the bacteria do not want to stick to the plate" Listen to Anna Andry's advice.
