Abstract
Grain whisky is typically manufactured in a continuous distillation unit comprising of two columns, the beer stripper and the rectifier. For the functional design of a respective sample still, Aspen Plus®, an engineering software package developed by AspenTech™, was used. Based on the literature data, the process parameters were manipulated to meet known characteristics of the production process and the spirit product. The results of the simulation were in good agreement with the data found in the literature.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes original research and review papers on any subject at the interface between food and engineering, particularly those of relevance to industry, including:
Engineering properties of foods, food physics and physical chemistry; processing, measurement, control, packaging, storage and distribution; engineering aspects of the design and production of novel foods and of food service and catering; design and operation of food processes, plant and equipment; economics of food engineering, including the economics of alternative processes.
Accounts of food engineering achievements are of particular value.
