Founded in 1997 by American engineer Martin Mitzkat, the spiral heating process is a technological innovation that is the genesis of the company Revtech: a unique and patented heat treatment process for raw materials for the agri-food, petrochemical and pharmacy sectors ...
The principle is simple and involves transporting and mixing the product by vibration while heat treated in a closed spiral tube. The direct contact of the product with the heated tube provides a consistent and well controlled transfer of heat with high thermal efficiency.
For steam sterilization and pasteurization purposes, the use of a small amount of water vapor can be coupled to this process for particularly efficient treatment of organic materials.
