Linde to showcase cryogenic wares

0

Addressing the needs of bakeries, Linde North America will be showcasing a range of state-of-the-art cryogenic technology for precision temperature and process quality control at BakingTech – which is held from March 2nd to 4th.

According to a company statement, Linde technology solutions can make a positive impact on process quality across the baking operation, from mixing and forming to final chilling or freezing and packaging. The process solutions use high-purity, food-grade carbon dioxide (CO2) or nitrogen (N2), and span: flour and dry-ingredient chilling systems, dough mixer chilling systems, continuous chill or freeze processing systems, and gases for modified atmosphere packaging to help preserve freshness and extend shelf life.

For chilling dry ingredients, Linde’s cryogenic gas system uses a specially-designed injection process to instantly cool fast-moving flour, sugar, spices, dry mixes, etc. as they flow from the silo to the mixer. The efficient chilling system can control temperatures to within +/-1 degree F of the setpoint for high consistency and repeatability at the mixer. Through cooperative efforts between Linde and Shick, processing parameters for any ingredient can be validated prior to installation with sample quantities at Shick’s test facility in Kansas City, Missouri. The dry ingredient chilling system can be used on new pressure or vacuum ingredient handling systems, or retrofitted to existing systems. 

“Wholesale bakeries know they must pay attention to process quality year round, and especially when production increases or the service area is expanded and places new demands on shelf-life,” says Ed Cordiano, Linde program manager for Bakery & Prepared Foods. “Linde can build greater control into processes for higher repeatability even at high volumes. This leads to more consistent quality and better freshness out of the package – things that keep retail bakeries, restaurants and consumers coming back.”
