Tea

Tea Industry

It is told that cultivation and processing of tea had started in China and India and then spread throughout the world with the advancing technology and consumption requirements.

In addition to the traditional tea brewing methods, new methods also attract increased attention today. Tea extract is used extensively in the production phase of products designed for ready to consume products such as canned tea or iced tea.

Process

Tea delivered as raw material is subjected to cleaning and shredding processes and then transferred to extraction tanks. Prepared water and tea mixture is separated as tea and sediment using HAUS DDF series decanters. Containing trace amounts of sediment in decanter centrifugal liquid output phase, the tea extract is fed into KOEN series separator to eliminate the sediments. Tea extract cleared from its sediment are transferred to dryers upon evaporation to produce powder. Also, decanter centrifuge solid output is recirculated to the extraction system for recovery.
