A producer of juices and beverages required an efficient method to dissolve citric acid in water for acid adjustment within their products. The conventional process relied on dissolving citric acid in hot water using a tank mixer, creating long batch preparation times and high energy demand.
The ratio of citric acid to water was 50:50 – with 500kg of powder and 500litres of water.
The customer sought a faster, more energy-efficient approach that could reliably produce the required citric acid solution while simplifying production and reducing operational costs.
