Complete Steps and Details of the Orange Concentrate Production Line
1. Receiving and Washing Oranges
Fresh oranges are transported to the factory and stored in fruit reception tanks. Then, they are conveyed via a conveyor belt into the washing system. This process includes the following steps:
- Initial Washing: Using high-pressure water to remove contaminants.
- Final Washing: Using approved disinfectants to ensure complete cleanliness.
2. Sorting and Grading
Oranges are sorted based on size, quality, and weight using grading machines. Defective or fungus-spotted fruits are removed from the production line, and high-quality oranges are sent to the next stage.
3. Preparation and Juice Extraction
At this stage, oranges are peeled and transferred to the juice extraction machine.
- Peeling: The orange peel is removed to prevent bitterness in the juice.
- Juice Extraction: High-precision extractors separate the juice from the pulp and seeds.
4. Filtration and Removal of Excess Pulp
The raw juice is transferred to specialized filters to remove fine pulp particles, seeds, and impurities. This stage plays a crucial role in achieving the desired clarity and uniformity of the product.
5. Initial Pasteurization
The pure juice enters the pasteurization system, which includes:
- Controlled Heating: To eliminate harmful microorganisms.
- Rapid Cooling: To preserve the natural taste and color.
6. Concentration (Evaporation Process)
The pasteurized juice is fed into multi-stage evaporators. During this process:
- The water content in the juice is evaporated at low temperature and pressure.
- The final concentration is adjusted to ensure optimal transport and storage conditions.
7. Cooling and Packaging
The obtained concentrate is rapidly cooled and packaged in specialized containers, typically including:
- Stainless steel drums of various capacities.
- Plastic containers or foil pouches for short-term transportation.
8. Storage and Warehousing
The final products are stored in well-equipped cold storage facilities. These warehouses maintain controlled temperature and humidity conditions to preserve the concentrate’s quality over time.
