Production of both yeast and enzymes requires multiple tanks that are filled with water and precursor ingredients used by each as a food source. Installing the most appropriate blower equipment in the process can enhance yeast and enzyme production, minimize energy costs, guarantee food safety, and avoid costly failures. Consequently, Aerzen’s vast experience in aeration for the water/wastewater market is now successfully being applied to the food and beverage market, as well as other industries.

In the face of COVID-19 disruptions and changing consumer attitudes, food operations managers face many new challenges. Better use of data will help the industry improve flexibility, efficiency, and visibility. Improved automation will also help senior managers focus more on strategic priorities rather than tactical operational improvements. But any insights-driven strategy relies on clean, accessible data. For example, a centralized system of record enables food operations managers to benchmark operational performance using many new KPIs, such as overall equipment effectiveness. The wealth of data it provides can then be analyzed to identify ways to improve operational efficiency.

There are contamination risks from multiple sources throughout the whole food supply chain. Product inspection instruments support manufacturers’ food safety efforts by detecting foreign object contamination during processing and when used as a final check of finished goods, protecting consumers and brand reputations. Discover how modern product inspection techniques can help reduce brand vulnerability to unwanted contamination escapes.
