MODULAR COMBINED UNIT FOR PROCESSING LIQUID WITH THIN LAYER OF INFRARED AND ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A23L3/05 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to technology for liquid products (milk, juice, etc.) processing. The unit is made in the form of identical constructions of modules interconnected by means of pipelines, at that each module contains the outer working cylinder from quartz glass, with an electric heater installed on it, made in the form of a high-resistance spiral coiled on its surface and fixed by heat-insulation with reflective inner surface, and internal working cylinder from quartz glass which is placed coaxially inside the outer working cylinder with formation of the gap between them of not greater than 4 mm. The source of infrared or ultraviolet radiation is installed coaxially in the internal cavity of the working cylinder.

EFFECT: modular structure of the unit enables to ensure high productivity with high product quality and reduction of energy costs.
