Bottling

The bottling process of any product has its challenges, especially when you want to achieve a fast fill. Most applications now use a vacuum in design in order to achieve this throughput.

Bottling

When a beer for example is bottled, its residual oxygen content must be kept as low as possible. For this to happen, breweries and other bottling plants employ two different methods, either single or combination:

• Bottles are flushed with CO2 and filled with beer or liquid via a long tube filler. In this case, the filler tube is inserted into the bottle and  it is flushed with carbon dioxide before actually being filled with beer.  This bottling method consumes a relatively large amount of CO2.
• Bottles are evacuated and then flushed with CO2.  This bottling method greatly reduces the carbon dioxide consumption because most of the oxygen is already extracted.
These methods improve the speed and efficiency of the process and at Vacuvane we are able to provide our Side Channel Blowers in order to meet those requirements.
