Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the manufacturing of pasta filata cheese, wherein skim milk is first supplied to a transport system having a plurality of separate transport containers, wherein curd is produced from the skim milk in the region of a first process section of the transport system, by the addition of acidification cultures; wherein the curd produced is coagulated in the region of a second process section, wherein the coagulated curd is exposed to an acidification process for an acidification period in the region of a third process section; and wherein the acidified curd is removed from the transport system in an outgoing section at the end of the acidification period and is supplied to a subsequent process step in which the acidified curd is divided into portions. The curd remains in the transport system up to the removal of the curd after the end of the acidification process.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus therefor for stabilizing products in containers in a continuous container flow by stationary, sequential sections by means of overflowing liquid, whereby the sections are graduated with respect to one another in terms of their liquid temperature, and for purposes of efficient liquid recycling are organized in pairs, so that the liquid is transported by overflow among sections, and to set the desired temperature of the overflowing liquid, liquid is added to the liquid being transported, characterized by the fact that the excess liquid in the at least one zone overflows in a cascade fashion from zone to zone of increasing overflow temperature and into liquid reservoirs.

Abstract: In accordance with a method of and arrangement for reducing heat consumption in a bottle cleaning machine, the machine has a plurality of lye solution preheating zones, a main lye solution bath, a plurality of spraying cells, and two heat pumps each having a hot side and a cold side, the hot side of one of the heat pumps being connected with one of the lye solution preheating zones while the cold side of the one heat pump is connected with at least one spraying cell, the one heat pump having an outlet connection leading to the one lye solution preheating zone and having a branching conduit leading to the cold side of another of the heat pumps and leads back to the one lye solution preheating zone, the hot side of the second heating pump having a circulating connection with the main lye solution bath.
