Summary

THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF A TUBULAR WATER BLANCHER AND A WATER BLANCHER WITH SCREW CONVEYOR WERE MEASURED AS A BASIS FOR SUGGESTING ENERGY CONSERVING MODIFICATIONS. THE FORMER REQUIRED 0.54 MJ/KG AND THE LATTER 0. 91 MJ/KG. A PILOT SCALE EXPERIMENT WITH A WATER BLANCHER HEATED WITH HEAT EXCHANGE AND BY STEAM INJECTION CONFIRMED THE ENERGY SAVINGS POTENTIAL OF HEATING WITH AN EXCHANGER.
