By pump the product is being sent to a deaerator where thanks the vacuum effect the air is sucked away while the surface condenser provides to recover the aromas down into the product.
From the deaerator a volumetric pump (mono or lobes) feeds the homogenizer (which can reach 200 bar pressure) . The homogenizer pumps the ketchup through a tube in tube pasteurizer in order to heat it up to 100-105°C (depending upon Ph and recipe of the product) and cool it down at 80-85°C. At this temperature the product is fed to the filler tank and then into the final containers. In case the set heating temperature is not reached inside the pasteurizer the product will be by-passed back into the pasteurizer product tank.
FILLING
Filling normally takes place into plastic or glass containers. The glass containers are the most common ones. The only precaution to be taken during hot filling into glass containers is that a preheating step has to be carried out carefully as to avoid thermal shock of the container itself thus potential damages.
In case of non glass containers: two kinds of plastic containers are normally available for tomato ketchup: (a) mono layer polyester containers, cheaper, but cannot accept filling temperatures higher than 75°C; (b) multi layer polyester/polypropylene containers, more expensive, but performing better filling temperature up to 95°C and providing better oxygen barrier particularly if mould with an intermediate layer of EVAL.
Ketchup process description
In case of containers (a) i.e. mono layer polyester, is not possible to pasteurize the container thus chemical preservatives shall be added to the product in order to have reasonable long shelf live. In any case, being such type of container permeable to oxygen the product gets a color degradation very rapidly thus at the end the product’s shelf live is reduced at 5 – 6 months only.
In case of containers (b) i.e. multi layer polyester / polypropylene, it is possible to hot fill the product at 90°C while the better oxygen barrier provided by such types of containers allows a shelf life up to 18 months without adding any preservative. Furthermore, whenever production volume exceed 5 millions pieces it will be very convenient to manufacture such plastic bottles at the plant itself directly from the polypropylene granulate. Equipment for production of plastic bottles is not really very expensive.
Normally tomato ketchup is being produced from existing tomato paste during the off season, rarely is produced on-line from fresh tomatoes.
The ketchup ingredients are: tomato paste + sugar syrup at 70°Brix + salt in a diluted form + vinegar (which could be grape or apple vinegar) + minor ingredients such as starch, aromas + Ph correctors. All these ingredients shall be based on a specific recipe and are put together in the proper percentage into a mixer-preheater to have the first cooking step. The sauce is then pumped to a twin under vacuum cooker for the final cooking at 65-70°C . The product is discharged into an insulated holding tank ready for the next step of the process.

∙ TWIST FREEZER has a standard ventilation the “VOT” concept “horizontal tangential type” air flow;
∙ Low maintenance cost and low spare parts cost due to the use of high quality commercial components;
∙ Belts and drum gear motors positioned outside the insulated cabin avoiding any risks of contaminations due to some oil leakages;
Main features:
∙ Fully automatic washing system (option) with loose water;
∙ C.I.P. “Cleaning in Place” system with the possibility to use basic – acid – detergent and disinfectant solutions;
∙ PLC and touch-screen supervision system (option);
CONTINUOUS AIR FILTERING SYSTEM Mod. SFA | Concept:
Applied in a freezer is a solution that provides to keep as much as possible the recycled air free from moisture – ice, and from product flying particles during the freezing operations. Ice is generated due to the water – moisture losses coming from the products (evaporation) and from the incoming air during the products feeding – loading. Quantity of products flying particles varies in accordance with the type of products on process. Usually ice and products flying particles are captured in the inner parts of the freezer, and mainly into the coils – evaporators.
With the increasing of ice accumulation into the coils – evaporators, the efficiency of these units will drop drastically, then usually to maintain the same efficiency – performances a higher power consumption is needed.As consequence periodically the freezer needs to be stopped for the de-frosting operation, with considerable drop page in the production with a certain increase of the operative costs.
Twist freezer
SFA concept and application will improve the following:
∙ Considerable increase of the freezing cycle and production;
∙ Minimizing the number of stoppages and defrosting cycles, with much lower operational costs;
∙ Minimizing the energy consumption needed to obtain the final results;
∙ Improvement of the final product quality, while the frozen product is almost free from the ice on it’s surface, (this is particularly appreciate for the products which are packed in a transparent packages)
Application:
SFA is a mesh wire conveyor positioned all around the coils – evaporators, and because of this is acting as continuous air filter.
It runs for the full lenght of the freezer with an outside extension to discharge the ice – and product particles out of the freezing chamber.
The mesh is continuously cleaned – blow and dry before coming back into the cabin; is possible to have also a water cleaning system in case of stronger cleaning operation, if needed (optional).
The airflow pass first through the product and then to the SFA before it reaches the evaporators. The mesh filters will capture the majorityo of the ice – frost, and product debris. The freezer therefore remains relatively free whit much longer freezing efficiency – production. As consequence the coils – evaporator surface will remain much cleaner giving better performance. With this system the stoppages due defrosting – cleaning and machine sanitation will be drastically reduced by approx. 50 – 80%, upon the type of product.
This is a Fenco’s “patented” solution.
∙ Very high mechanical (reliability) of spiral belt conveyor;
∙ Reduced belt wear and elongation thanks to low tension drive system (the belt is pulled by means of dynamic friction on the total lenght);
∙ Belt system lubrication free avoiding any possible risks of products contamination;
∙ Long work-cycles due to “symmetrical” large fins spacing design, on the air entrance, and over sizing of evaporators;
∙ Possibility to have bi-directional “clockwise and counter clock wise” air flow in the evaporators with the possibility to improve the evaporator “efficiency”, having automatically longer running cycle;
∙ TWIST FREEZER is designed as “Easy Clean” concept avoiding point of dirtiness accumulation;

The ideal cooling system for pouches, sachets, cups, jars and lots of other different containers
Advantages
∙ SPACE SAVING – Very compact design too minimize the space occupied
∙ NO CONCRETE OR FLOORING – No need of any special flooring, neither concrete floors, nor civil work. We just need a flat floor!
∙ VERY LOW WATER CONSUMPTION – The system recirculates all the water in its own tank. Due to the temperature controls and the logic applied, using a simple Cooling Tower and/or a Chilling unit, the only water wasted is due to the heat exhange with the containers. So it’s extremely low. A pump recirculates the water through a plate heat exhanger and the flow is integrated by a 3 ways valve automatically.
