Valves Needed In The Coffee Production Process

Coffee is a beverage made from roasted and ground coffee beans.
As an elegant, fashionable and high-grade beverage, coffee has been popular all over the world, and it is listed as the top three beverages (coffee, tea, cocoa) in the world. Coffee is grown in 76 countries and regions all over the world.

Coffee is becoming more and more popular in the world, so what are its benefits?

1. Because caffeine can stimulate the central nervous system and muscles, it can boost the spirit, improve thinking and memory, and eliminate muscle fatigue.

2. Coffee can help digestion. Some substances contained in coffee can promote the secretion of gastric acid, and can also effectively promote intestinal peristalsis so as to help the digestion of accumulated food in the body. It can also relieve indigestion and loss of appetite.

3. Coffee can diuretic and reduce swelling. Because caffeine can promote the excretion of excessive sodium ions in the body, and drinking a lot of water is also good for detoxification, thereby increasing urination, relieving constipation, promoting metabolism, and can also play a good role in reducing swelling.

4. Coffee can also prevent cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s disease to a certain extent. In many western countries, coffee has become a kind of culture. Medical research shows that coffee is good for many organ systems. It can also protect the liver to a certain extent, reduce the risk of cancer, and coffee has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. At the same time, coffee can also help regulate fat metabolism, and it also has a non-negligible effect on lowering blood lipids.

The processing method step of coffee is:

·Dried and Shelled Cherries
·Washing and Grading Beans
·Decaffeinated
·Bake
·Grading

Which valves will be used in the process of coffee making and processing? In fact, throughout the processing process, the valves are always working, and where there are pipelines, there will be valves. The following mainly introduces the valves needed in several processes.

Washing

When washing coffee beans, we often use pneumatic sanitary ball valves. Strictly speaking, sanitary pneumatic ball valves have high-standard manufacturing standards. They are mainly developed for some food and bio-fermentation companies.

The finish has particularly high requirements. Most of the parts of sanitary valves in contact with the medium are made of stainless steel, and the material is generally SS304 or SS316. The reasons for choosing pneumatic sanitary ball valves are as follows:

·The material is non-toxic and harmless, and the surface is clean and smooth without corrosion and shedding.
·Easy to operate, fast opening and closing, only need to rotate 90° from fully open to fully closed, which is convenient for remote control.
·Easy maintenance, simple structure of the pneumatic ball valve, general movement of the sealing ring, easy disassembly and replacement
·Since the power source of the pneumatic ball valve is gas, it is relatively safe. If the pneumatic ball valve leaks, compared with hydraulic and electric, the gas can be discharged directly, which has no pollution to the environment and media, and has high safety.

Bake

When baking, because the same temperature must be maintained in the pipeline for a long time, if the temperature of the pipeline drops, the coffee beans that have just been produced and cooled will become viscous and become a slurry.

The most common process requires coffee beans to be placed in a large metal cylinder, and then blow hot air into it. At this time, the pipeline produced should use a pneumatic heaitng jacket ball valve, which has good heat preservation and cold preservation characteristics, and can effectively reduce the heat loss of the medium in the pipeline.

It is mainly used in various systems such as petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, food, etc., to transport high-viscosity media that will solidify at room temperature.

After finishing a day of coffee bean production, the coffee processing plant needs to clean the pipes, and the cleaning procedure must be meticulous. Otherwise bacteria may be introduced into the pipe, causing changes in the pipe medium.
It is very important to clean equipment and pipelines in an orderly manner.
At this time, the pneumatic pvc ball valve is well used in this process. First of all, it is economical and cheap, and PVC material is more economical than other valve body materials.
It is compact and reliable. At present, the sealing surface material of the ball valve is widely used in plastics, which has good sealing performance and has been widely used in vacuum systems.
