FTNON Flotation washing installation

for fresh mushrooms

This new flotation washing installation of FTNON is specially developed for the fresh mushroom industry. Dirt and peat are removed during an extremely gentle treatment of the mushrooms.
 
The process consists of 1, 2 or 3 washing phases. Each washing phase has its own washing section and spraying system. Adjustable air and water injection points take care of turbulence in the water and create a good washing function in this way.
 
Retention time, temperature and pH-value can be regulated per section. This results in a carefully controlled washing process, with a high flexibility, whereby the mushrooms keep their nice, white colour.
 
The infeed takes place at the surface of the washing water.
Falling heights at the outfeed are limited to a minimum too.
 
In order to minimize water consumption the water is filtered
and re-circulated in each washing section.

• capacity 200 – 8,000 kgs/h
• retention times from 20 sec. till 2-3 min.

FTNON delivers tailor-made machines. Therefore capacity and dimensions will depend on your product and specific requirements. All our machines are constructed of stainless steel wherever possible and comply with the stringent, international standards in the field of safety and hygiene.
