  • Vacuum Receivers
    Cultivating An Appealing Packaging Operation

    Although food safety issues may be the lead headlines of evening news programs with highlights about Congress’ consideration of several proposals to reform the food safety system, including creation of a single food safety agency, food industry professionals are no strangers to the ongoing discussion about food safety and food safety standards.

  • Dust Collection System Solves Ingredient Processor’s Dust And A/C Challenges In its powdered ingredients processing facility, Mulligan Sales required both substantial dust collection and constant air conditioning for temperature and humidity control. Running both systems simultaneously was not an option with the company’s existing dust collectors—an external baghouse unit with envelope-type filters and a manual shaker for filter cleaning.

  • Pasteurization In A Laboratory Glassware Washer

    Typically, pasteurization is performed with a benchtop pasteurization system in a stove-top immersion bath. Bottles are immersed in boiling water and held at temperature for a given amount of time. The problem is while the immersion process is inexpensive, it is neither accurate nor controlled, and the benchtop equipment can be expensive and complicated to install and operate. A solution is the laboratory glassware washer which simulates tunnel washer conditions— i.e. the bottles are sprayed with water at a certain temperature.

    Air Quality And Air Treatment In Compressed Air Systems

    Compressed air quality is mission critical in manufacturing. When determining the right air treatment components for a compressed air system, there is a great deal to keep in mind. In this paper, we discuss compressed air quality and how it impacts operating costs and production. We also outline information about designing a compressed air system for maximum effectiveness while minimizing costs. We will also discuss energy benefits where it applies.

    Over-Sized And Under-Utilized: An Epidemic

    With over ten thousand air systems audits under our belt, we've seen it all and learned a few things. One of the most common problems we see is that most systems have far more capacity than needed. On average, users operate at 44% of peak capacity. It's so common, we'd say it is an epidemic, and even our own customers are not immune despite our efforts to inoculate with education. This article takes a look at some actual examples of over-sized systems and the costs that resulted. Learn how to properly plan for a compressed air system and what your options are with an existing system.

    Cleaning Fruits Using Micro-Bubbles

    Foodborne illness impacts about 1 in 6 Americans every year, and is caused by the consumption of foods contaminated with foodborne pathogens. Fresh fruits and vegetables are increasingly implicated in foodborne outbreaks and lack a step to “decontaminate” or remove any foodborne pathogens that may be present.

  • HACCP Greg Scher US Army
    Have We Lost Our Way With HACCP?

    As food safety becomes an increasingly important issue, it might be a good idea to take a step back and reexamine your food safety plans. Asking a few key questions, such as “who are my customers?” and “how do my HACCP plans help them?” are a good place to start.
