Solution

In the food industry, UHT 6T refers to the Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) process applied to coconut water to extend its shelf life without compromising quality and nutrition.

The UHT process heats coconut water to approximately 135-150 degrees Celsius for a few seconds to sterilize the product from harmful microorganisms and enzymes that can cause spoilage. After heating, the coconut water is immediately cooled and packaged in an aseptic condition to maintain its freshness.

Next, please review the common problems encountered in this unit and their effective solutions from Eonchemicals as follows:

1. Problem: Frequent Regreasing

In the UHT 6T process in the food industry, frequent regreasing (intervals of reapplying grease) of processing equipment often arises. This occurs due to poor-quality grease, causing its effectiveness to quickly diminish (not long-lasting).

Frequent regreasing not only increases operational costs and machine downtime but also disrupts production efficiency, affects the consistency of the sterilization process, and potentially contaminates the processed coconut water.

Solution: LE Lubricant

LE Lubricant is the right solution to address the problem of frequent regreasing in the UHT 6T process in the food industry because it has a formula designed to last longer under extreme operational conditions. LE Lubricant has high thermal stability and resistance to oxidation, remaining effective in lubricating machine components even at high temperatures and heavy loads.

This reduces the frequency of required regreasing, ensuring consistent and optimal lubrication. Therefore, using LE Lubricant can reduce operational costs, minimize machine downtime, and maintain production efficiency and the quality of coconut water processed through UHT 6T.

2. Problem: Long CIP Cycle Time

In the UHT 6T process in the food industry, the problem of long CIP (Cleaning in Place) cycle time is often faced, disrupting the efficiency of coconut water production. CIP is an essential procedure to ensure the cleanliness and sterilization of processing equipment without dismantling it.

However, due to the complexity of the system and the need to remove residues and contaminants that are difficult to reach, the CIP cycle can take a long time. This long CIP cycle time results in increased downtime, reducing daily production capacity, and increasing energy and cleaning material consumption.

Solution: Eon CIP

The Eon CIP product solution is an innovative solution to address the problem of long CIP cycle time in the UHT 6T process in the food industry due to its effective and efficient formula in cleaning and sterilizing processing equipment. The Eon CIP product is designed to quickly and thoroughly remove residues and contaminants, reducing the time required for each cleaning cycle.

Additionally, Eon CIP has high penetration capability and can work under various temperature conditions, ensuring all areas of the equipment are reachable and clean without requiring long processing times.

3. Problem: Microbiological Contamination

In the UHT 6T process in the food industry, the problem of microbiological contamination is a serious challenge that can threaten the quality and safety of coconut water products. Although the UHT process is designed to sterilize the product by heating it to very high temperatures, microbiological contamination can occur if there is a failure in the sterilization system, equipment cleanliness, or the packaging used.

Pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and yeast can proliferate in the product, causing spoilage and health risks to consumers. This problem can lead to product recalls from the market with significant financial losses for you. The worst risk is losing consumer trust.

 Solution: Eon Sanitizing

Eon Sanitizing is suitable as a solution to address the problem of microbiological contamination in the UHT 6T process. This product solution has the capability to provide effective and thorough sanitation of production equipment and environments.
