Apricot plum deep processing production line according to the new technology to select cost-effective equipment models, can produce apricot plum jam, canned apricot plum, apricot plum dried fruit and other products.
 
Apricot is one of the main fruit trees in Xinjiang, whose cultivated area and yield are the first in all provinces (regions). Xinjiang apricot cultivation has a long history, more than 3 million years ago. In recent years, along with the xinjiang apricot tree planting area of further expanding, concentrated apricot jam is characteristic of export products developed in xinjiang, as of June 2007, concentrated apricot jam design production capacity of more than 150000 tons, annual output reached 110000 tons, 2007 accounted for 90% of the country, to become the world's production base of concentrated apricot jam, product exports almost. At present, Xinjiang export apricot paste has accounted for about half of the world trade volume, has become the world's important apricot paste export destination.
 
The technological process includes: material selection → nucleation → softening → VC addition → crushing → preheating → refined beating → homogenization → concentration → germicidal cooling → aseptic filling → packaging and warehousing. The product shows the original color of apricot pulp, which becomes darker after a long time. The jam has the inherent taste and aroma of fresh apricot, no peculiar smell, and the appearance is uniform and opaque. Double-effect or three-effect vacuum forced countercurrent circulation evaporator is used to concentrate, with low equipment cost, high steam utilization rate and good product quality. The preheater uses a bushing heat exchanger, because almost all apricot pulp is retained in the apricot paste, and the apricot paste has a high pectin content, which is larger in the year. It is not easy to pass through the plate heat exchanger and causes coking, which causes adverse effects on the products and equipment.
