Continuous sugar dissolving

Liquid Sugar Storage

 II. CONTIMOL dissolving system

• with dissolving tank,

• separation chamber,Water
• circulation pump,
• internal piping and
incl. pump and integrated 120 l water tank
• switch cabinet with control elements.

Water heating module (optional)

• if required, depending on available process water
temperature and sugar quality
• either for steam or hot water heating
III. DISSOLVING TEMPERATURES

The system can be designed either for cold/warm dissolving or as hot dissolving unit:

Cold/warm dissolving

In this case, the dissolving water is preheated to max. 90°C. Depending on the sugar temperature, the
dissolving temperature is Water
approx. 50°C.

Assumption: the sugar temperature is min. 10°C.

In order to achieve higher syrup outlet temperatures (e.g. for a downstream flash pasteurizer)
a plate heat exchanger can be added.
III. DISSOLVING TEMPERATURES

Hot-dissolving

For hot-dissolving of sugar syrup over 68° Brix, an additional counter current heat exchanger is
integrated. In this case a dissolving water temperature of 80-85°C is reached.

Water

The residual heat energy is supplied by the internal heat exchanger.

Up to a capacity of 10.000 l/h a preheating of dissolving water is not necessary.
