About this video

Tubular evaporators are essential in the dairy industry for concentrating milk and whey by removing water through controlled heating. During regular operation, these systems will experience fouling from milk solids, proteins, and minerals that deposit on heat transfer surfaces, especially inside the tubes. This buildup will reduce thermal efficiency, increase energy consumption, and risk compromising product quality. Routine cleaning and maintenance are vital to ensure hygienic conditions, consistent product output, and long-term operational efficiency.

Goodway Benelux provides tube cleaning systems to remove various types of deposits from evaporator tubes (falling film evaporators), commonly found in the dairy industry. These systems effectively remove hard dairy deposits from the inner tube walls.
