Minimum Value of Residual Oxygen with Minimum Expenditure
Oxygen in beer and beverages may spoil the perishability and taste. It is therefore important to use optimum deaerated water for the redilution of beer and for the production of beverages. The innovative GEA Diessel water deaeration system VARIDOX™ (cold deaeration system) achieves excellent residual oxygen values which makes it most suitable for this and other applications.
The water is sprayed in the de-aerating column and slowly trickles down the packed columns. The bottom-up flowing CO2 (N2) ensures the release of the oxygen. At the outlet of the system the water is saturated with CO2 (N2). An increase of the carbonating degree of the outcoming water to a certain set value is possible with low additional expenditure.
The probes for flow rate, level, and optionally oxygen monitor the VARIDOX™ system for its proper function. The water deaeration system VARIDOX™ is cleaned on the product path.
