Heat Optimized Technology “HOT” Series Systems for Carbon Towers

Bacteria in production water and biofouling of water treatment systems can create operational challenges for beverage manufacturers. To meet these challenges, the Heat Optimized Technology “HOT” Series Systems were introduced.

HOT technology is a patented process that:
- Provides thorough sanitization of new or existing carbon towers
- Reduces backwash water consumption by up to 75%
- Adds process control

HOT Series Systems use a hot water recirculation loop that eliminates the potential for bed contamination that can exist from utilizing plant steam. A HOT Series system can be provided independently with or without an optional chilling exchanger or a complete system with the carbon towers and ancillary equipment can be provided.

Features and Benefits

HOT Series systems offer quick delivery and easy installation. With a small footprint, the fully skidded, stainless steel systems are a small addition, but offer many benefits to existing carbon tower installations:

Field proven to provide more effective microbial kill than conventional steaming processes
More thorough kill lessens the bacteria count to < 10 colony forming units (cfu) per ml or tighter to significantly increase the number of days between sanitizations
Up to 75% reduction in backwash water to conserve precious resources
Less biofouling and cleaner carbon to significantly extend the useful life of the carbon bed and substantially reduce costs
The heating system can sanitize the loop distribution piping and polishing equipment for improved operations
Bacteria return time is increased from a few days to more than a week because of uniform heating of the carbon bed in the expanded state and reduced potential for cold spots

Whether you need an entire system including carbon towers or want to add a HOT Series system, we can assist you with all your beverage industry needs.
