Diseño del proceso para la extracción de pulpa a partir de mora para la Asociación de Producción Agrícola Cadena Provincial de Mora ASOPROCAMOR Tungurahua.

Abstract

The objective of the titration work was the design of the pulp extraction process “ASOPROMACOR” Tungurahua. The design was made base on simulated tests in Industrial Process laboratories. The characterization of default was made. As fruit and fruit, the variables of temperature, volume, and time, chemical flow in the process and physical- chemical parameters of pH, 0Brix, % Acidity and microbiological parameters for the processed pulp are also indicated. The data were taken as the bases of calculation for industrial level design. The validation of the process was based on the Standard NTE INEN 2337: 2008 “JUICES, CONCENTRATED PULP, NECTAR, FRUIT AND VEGETABLE BEVERAGES. REQUERIMENTS”, which specifies the physical parameters – chemical and microbiological products that must comply with the norm for human consumption. It is concluded that the procedure for the extraction of default includes the selection of raw material, washing, blanching, pulping, homogenizing, packaging, labeling and storage. The pulp obtained in the test of the experimental part of this project was analyzed in a certified laboratory located in the city of Guayaquil (INDPECTORADO SA), where the results were reflected in the product complies with the standard for commercialization.
