Honey drying

The peculiarity of this unit is the combination of several functions: homogenization and drying of honey. The vertical vacuum dryer allows you to dry honey weighing up to 3300 kg in a short time while preserving its useful properties, color, taste, and organoleptic qualities. The vacuum honey dryer has a number of significant advantages over classic atmospheric honey dryers due to the reduction of processing time and the preservation of its beneficial properties, which is achieved by drying at a lower temperature.

• The drying process occurs much faster due to the evaporation of moisture under vacuum.
• High degree of homogenization of honey due to the operation of a special mixing device.
• The narrow vertical design does not require large production areas while boasting high productivity.

The unique feature of this vacuum honey evaporator model, distinguishing it from a honey dryer, is its ability to create a deep vacuum with a residual pressure of up to 0.08 Bar during processing! This innovative unit not only allows for quick and efficient drying of honey but also enables the immediate evaporation of water, producing a semi-finished product suitable for the subsequent production of «dry honey» or powdered honey.

• There is no need to have a large drying surface – an evaporation mirror.
• There is no need to install a mixing device for thick and viscous products.
• Low evaporation temperature of moisture – water from honey, at which its quality and medicinal properties are not compromised, and the risk of HMF growth is reduced to almost zero.
• Fast and efficient dehydration of honey at a low processing temperature.

A vacuum honey dryer is used to dehydrate (remove moisture from) honey at sub-atmospheric pressure.

• This highly efficient and innovative vacuum drying process guarantees honey drying rates exceeding 1% per hour!
• The dryer allows for quick and gentle drying of honey at temperatures up to 39°C without increasing hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) levels.
• Any heat source (hot water, steam) can be used to supply thermal energy to the dryer's jacket.
• The specially designed mixing device enhances heat transfer within the product, improving its thermal efficiency and significantly reducing drying energy costs.

The price is indicated without a source of compressed air - compressor (optional).

This is periodic type of equipment designed for removing moisture and excess water from honey under vacuum conditions. This pilot vacuum dryer can be used for processing small volumes of honey directly at apiaries.

• Drying rate up to 1% per hour! (with a gradual decrease as the concentration increases)
• Large heat transfer area
• Low drying temperature thanks to the vacuum
• Easy operation and maintenance
• External forced circulation circuit for intense evaporation

A vacuum deaerator is extensively used in the food industry to remove gases from products that may retain some bubbles post-processing. Additionally, a flow deaerator is utilized to minimize foaming in products, ensuring a denser structure, especially prior to packaging. Vacuum deaerators play a crucial role in eliminating specific odors from the products, such as in the production of juices, purees, and herbal drinks. This process significantly contributes to enhancing the overall quality and taste of the final product.

• Enhances product quality, structure, and shape
• Prevents oxidation by removing gases
• Preserves organoleptic properties and extends the shelf life
• Suitable for thick and viscous products
• The flow principle allows for the installation of this equipment in existing production lines

We offer different types of honey dryers with capacity from 50 kg up to 1000 kg.
