Design Specifications

The fruit juice processing plant can work with a generator or electricity. It has a water purification system including a fruit machine, a dilution, and wash down components. The mill mounted on the whole system mashes vegetables and hard fruit before pressing. The product obtained after mashing goes to press. The product has a component called the pulper siever that is mainly used for mangoes, pineapples, tomatoes, and all non-pressing fruits before they are moved into the blending tanks. The juice is directed to the pasteurization room for treatment to preserve its quality. This process involves heating it to a high temperature (85°C) for a short period of time to destroy any bacteria and any unwanted micro-organisms.
