Food processing industry - Import export

The food industry processes almost all of the entrails of beef cattle. The small intestine (or beef runner) is mainly used to make saveloys (cervelas), black puddings and dried sausages. Another widely used intestine is the beef bung-cap, which is used to produce ham sausage (spam), veal sausage, black pudding and dried sausage.

The Tenderstar TSAB tenderizer is a fully automated tenderizing machine that can process pieces of meat measuring 140 mm × 330 mm. This high-end device is ideal for the food processing industries as it can process a large quantity of meat in a minimum amount of time. Quite easy to use, just place the piece of meat on the belt, choose the degree of tenderizing (3 possibilities) according to the hardness of the piece of meat and the 784 needles do the rest. The speed adapts itself and oblique guides keep the meat well centred on the belt. The result obtained is therefore uniform and unmarked for a juicy and tender meat. In terms of hygiene and maintenance, this Tenderstar machine is very practical. Made of stainless steel, it does not rust. In addition, it is quite easy to clean since all parts in contact with the meat can be dismantled without tools to be sterilized or cleaned at very high temperatures.

Enclosed ground flares are suitable for thermal destruction of a wide range of waste gases including rich and lean gas mixtures. Where the burners are housed in a cylindrical vessel resulting in the combustion process being out of sight and more controllable in comparison to elevated flares. Enclosed ground flares can also be designed with or without temperature control. With temperature control, a minimum residence time, at a specific combustion temperature can be set and guaranteed. Consequently, temperature controlled ground flares, also called combustors or thermal oxidisers, can meet the most stringent emission values. The emissions can be monitored with chemical emission monitoring (CEM) units. Features Can be equipped with Europem’ proprietary Tulip Venturi Burner for the combustion of lean waste gases or with multiple burners designed for the flaring of large capacities (modulated flaring is possible) Operating at varying temperatures depending on the load of the ground flare Smokeless operation and high destruction efficiency by ensuring some turbulence around the flame and sufficient residence time at elevated temperatures Simple control system, because the combustion temperature is allowed to fluctuate Provisions for support fuel in cases of combustion of lean waste gases or cooling air in cases of rich waste gas combustion Can be supplied as natural draft or forced draft system Can be supplied with or without temperature control Advantages No visible flame and reduced visibility of the installation due to lower stack heights Reduced noise levels Minimal heat radiation Possibility for emissions sampling High destruction efficiencies and smokeless operation Applications Tank farms and ship loading terminals Chemical and petrochemical industries Food processing industry Waste management plants

Utility Flares (Pipe Flares) are the most basic flare design available, to provide a robust, reliable and flexible solution for the flaring of large volumes of low pressure waste gas when smokeless operation is either not required or can be achieved without an assisting medium (like steam, air or gas). Reliable operation at both full load and partial load is possible. Key features Flame holders fitted on the periphery of the flare tip ensure stable operation. These flame holders provide a zone of recirculated flue gases, which prevent flame lift off, from the flare tip. Wind deflectors to prevent flame impingement, which prevent a low pressure zone, downwind of the tip. Pilot burner arrangement to further stabilise the flame. Use of high grade alloys to enhance lifetime of the flare tip Use of dynamic seal to reduce purge gas requirements and prevent flash back. Key advantages Low investment and operational costs Low maintenance costs with the use of high grade alloys and the robust design. Reliable and stable flaring in a wide range of operating conditions Large turn-down ratio Applications Upstream oil & gas sector LNG terminals and NG compression stations Chemical and petrochemical industries including refineries Food processing industries Municipal solid waste treatment (biogas and landfill gas) plants Temperature controlled combustors and thermal oxidisers.
