OLIVE OIL INDUSTRY

 

nr_bch_en_018 The Olive oil is one of our most familiar, widely used products as it is the basis of the traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Olive oil cultivation and production techniques have origins dating back to Ancient Grecian times, subsequently adopted by the Romans who exported it to most of Europe as we know it today.

Nowadays, the oil industry is widespread throughout Italy and countries such as Greece, France and Spain where favourable climatic conditions for olive growing prevail. The last century saw a shift from small-scale artisanal production, operated by the actual owners of the olive groves, to major industrial plants.

The industry has invested in new processing techniques to constantly improve product quality, as well as to increase output.
Progressive cavity pumps perform best in the various process stages, as they convey the fluid throughout the entire process in a particularly delicate way, from grinding of the olives through to bottling of the oil. The tensile stress to which the pumped fluid is subjected is very limited compared to other pumping systems, being pulsation-free, above all with heterogeneous products such as for example the paste produced after the first grinding step. Integration of the pumps with the different processing machines ensures fast transfer times which is indispensable for the preservation of the organoleptic characteristics of the product needed to achieve a high quality oil.

FLOW CHART

 schema-impianto-oleario   

 

Application (refer to the above diagram):

1. DX: pump designed specifically for the food industry, used to transfer the product from the hammer crusher to the next step, malaxation of the paste consisting of solid fragments of pits, skins and pulp obtained after milling

2. DX: pump used to transfer the olive paste, after the malaxation process, to the centrifuge where the oil is separated from the water.

3. RL: wobble pump used for pumping the oil must as it flows from the centrifuge that separates it from the pomace, which is the solid part of the olive paste, and then passes to the next stage which is separation of the oil from the residual water.

4. RL: pump designed to pump oil obtained from the separation stage (oil from the residual water) to the filtering stage

5. RL: pump designed to pump filtered oil to the bottling stage

 

Product for wine industry


dn-din DN SERIES
