Sanitary tank

Little Charente

The Charente distillation unit consists of a distillation pot, a reflux flask, a feed preheater, a coil condenser, and a spirit collection vessel. The entire pot body is meticulously crafted from pure red copper, a material chosen for several key advantages: first, copper boasts excellent thermal conductivity; second, it serves as a catalyst for esterification reactions; third, it exhibits outstanding resistance to corrosion by the acidity of the raw spirit; and fourth, copper can facilitate the formation of insoluble copper salts from butyric acid, acetic acid, lauric acid, and other compounds, causing these acids to precipitate out and thereby eliminating their off-flavors. The pot body is designed in a round-kettle configuration with an inward-curving bottom to ensure complete drainage of residual liquid, while the top is shaped like a dome and connected to the reflux flask to prevent “boiling over” during distillation and to allow partial reflux of the distillate vapor, thus achieving a fractional distillation effect.
In the process of winemaking, producing high-quality brandy is inseparable from the distillation apparatus; even with excellent wine, without a superior still, fine brandy cannot be distilled. The truly mature brandy distiller is the “Charentais” still, crafted entirely from pure copper.

Fermentation tank

Scope of application:
Primarily used in wine fermentation, fruit wine fermentation, food processing, dairy production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and other industries for fermentation purposes.
Tank accessories:
Top manway, water-sealed breather, cleaning ball, spray ball, inlet and outlet nozzles, sampling valve, thermometer, level gauge, bottom manway, shaft-type valve, refrigerant inlet and outlet, honeycomb jacket (Miller plate), plate-type sieve valve, sanitary-grade pipe fittings, drain port, and other components.
Material:
Made of SUS304 and 316L stainless steel.
Structural characteristics:
The fermentation tank is equipped with a jacketed Miler plate and belt-type agitators, and features temperature-control probes, liquid-level probes, and refrigerant solenoid valves mounted on the tank, all of which are automatically controlled by a PLC to regulate fermentation time, thereby significantly reducing labor costs. Both the tank body and the upper and lower filling heads (or conical sections) are formed using spin-forming with rounded R corners, and the inner pipe walls are polished to eliminate any sanitary dead zones. The fully enclosed design ensures that the process media are continuously mixed and fermented in a contamination-free environment.
Designed to meet hygienic standards, with a user-friendly structural design and simple operation. The interior of the tank is polished, while external welds undergo pickling and passivation followed by strip polishing. Tank nozzles, manholes, and other openings feature rounded flange transitions for smooth surfaces that are easy to clean and free of dead corners. The equipment can be configured for side-mounted or bottom-mounted agitation and is manufactured in compliance with standards such as NB/T 47003.1–2009 “Steel Welded Atmospheric Pressure Vessels” and QB/T 2681–2004 “Stainless Steel Thin-Walled Containers for the Food Industry.”

CIP cleaning

Cleaning systems represent an ideal method for cleaning equipment and pipelines, and their application is increasingly widespread in the food and pharmaceutical processing industries.
In the production process of food-processing enterprises, the cleaning of processing equipment and pipelines is of paramount importance. Residues that accumulate on such equipment and pipelines after use can directly compromise product quality if not removed promptly and thoroughly.
In-situ cleaning
(Cleaning In Place) equipment (such as tanks and tank pumps) uses centrifugal pumps to circulate cleaning solutions through process pipelines and within the equipment, achieving in-situ cleaning, improving equipment utilization, and reducing labor intensity.
Performance Features
The entire CIP system can be controlled by a PLC to perform individual processes such as acid cleaning, alkaline cleaning, and hot-water rinsing. It can also execute automated cleaning sequences based on custom-defined cleaning programs, and can be configured for semi-automatic or fully automatic control according to customer requirements.

Whiskey Distillation

This distillation column is of the bubble-cap tower type, in which heating generates vapor (gas) that comes into close contact with the liquid, thereby enhancing mass transfer between the two phases.
Advantages of this machine:
1. The tray efficiency is high and remains efficient over a wide load range;
2. Large production capacity;
3. Stable operation, high flexibility, wide applicability, and resistance to clogging, among other advantages;
4. The gas riser extends above the plate surface, reducing the likelihood of liquid leakage and providing greater operational flexibility.
5. The tray is resistant to clogging and easy to handle, even with mash containing large amounts of tar or sediment.
