Brewing, Food and Beverage
The brewing, food and beverage line-of-business is dedicated to
delivering process and energy efficiencies to the food and beverage
processing sector where major challenges exist to improve
environmental and economic performance.
PDX technology enables large-scale producers to immediately
reduce production costs and increase output while ensuring
excellent product quality.

The PDX mashing system offers brewers a compelling alternative
technology to traditional mashing systems. Based on PDX reactor
technology the patented PDX mashing system uses direct steam
injection to heat and mix the mash. The efficient and effective
transfer of heat eliminates formation of burn-on in the mash tun
and mixes the mash to a uniform homogeneity unrivalled by current
conventional mash agitation technology. The PDX mashing system
converts standard boiler steam to food grade via the steam
conditioning unit and the production of the beer by direct steam
injection conforms to the German Purity Law (Deutsches
Reinheitsgebot). The PDX mashing system can be easily incorporated
into existing brewing plants with minimal disruption or implemented
as part of a new build brewhouse.

Brewing - Wort Boiling
The PDX Wort Heater offers brewers the opportunity to deliver
significant energy savings of up to 50% during the energy intensive
wort boiling stage. With a fast return on investment
approximating 12-18 months (subject to brewery performance), this
technology is a compelling economic and environmental solution
compared to traditional wort processing equipment.
Furthermore flavour stability is improved and flavour consistency
increased from one brew to the next; and in some breweries the
technology can provide an increase in capacity without further
capital expenditure.

Factsheet
The PDX Atomisation technology ensures tanks and pipe work can
be easily and cost effectively cleaned. This technology saves
on detergent costs, reduces water consumption and prevents product
contamination.
Food - Liquid Food Processing
Innovative PDX Technologies are making major contributions to
food processing. Many food manufacturers with multi-plant
sites around the world already employ PDX for consistent, cost
effective processing and have seen a marked increase in throughput
while making savings on raw ingredients costs.
Sauces, Ready Meals and Particulate Sauces
The PDX Sonic can be applied to the production and process of a
range of food sauces; from ready meal sauces, béchamel, custards,
scrambled egg to ice cream mixes and sauces with particulates such
as sweet and sour.
The PDX enables multiple processing stages to be simplified; it
is multi-functional and can heat, homogenise, emulsify, entrain and
pump any liquid food with impressive performance. Ingredient
quantities such as starch, gums and spices, can be reduced (recipe
dependent) while flavour profiles and product quality are matched,
or enhanced where required.

Dissolution
The PDX Sonic delivers an effective solution for the dispersion
of gums, starches, flavourings and artificial sweetener's used in
the production of soft and low calorie (diet) drinks.
Using the patented technology the PDX Sonic can effectively
disperse hard to wet powders by simultaneously pumping, heating and
hydrating the ingredients, eliminating the need to pre-mix.
Its super-efficient mixing capabilities mix and disperse powders
evenly, resulting in faster processing times and reduced energy
consumption, while achieving improvements in product consistency
and quality.
