THOR pre-concentrator is the most technologically advanced and energy efficient evaporation solution on the market for the production of high quality tomato juice up to a concentration of 12 Bx Hot Break and 16 Bx Cold Break.
Designed for intermediate viscosity products, THOR is designed with a Hybrid Flow heat exchanger system integrated into each evaporation stage. The Hybrid Flow heat exchanger comprises both forced-flow ascending tubes and accelerated-flow descending tubes, coupled by a pressurised distribution chamber.
This unique solution from Ing. A. Rossi enables a very precise brix degree to be achieved, significantly higher than any other pre-concentrator on the market. In practice, this means that it is possible to obtain finished products, such as tomato purée, pulp preserving liquid, peeled or diced tomatoes, and juices of intermediate viscosity, entirely with the THOR MVR, without the need offinishing evaporators. If a higher Bx level is required, the resulting product can be further concentrated in forced circulation evaporators.
THOR is also the most energy-efficient evaporator on the market. Its intrinsic efficiency, ensured by mechanical recompression of the product’s vapours (MVR), is maximised by the use of Hybrid Flow heat exchange. This state-of-the-art solution means that the evaporation process consumes zero steam and minimal energy.
