SilPig Product Recovery System

The PIG system  is ideal for the recovery of any product remaining in a pipeline at the end of the transfer process. As this product can be of a high value the PIG system recovers the product removing it from the pipelines and preparing the pipeline for a CIP process. Another benefit is the reduction of the fluid sent to the sewage treatment plant that results in saving energy and water.

The main application of the system is viscous media. Among the products treated there are chocolates, marmelades, confectionary creams in the food-processing industry, or gels, creames and other body care products of high value in the cosmetic industry.

The system comprises a launcher, a receiver, a PIG (or a sphere), two position detectors (one for the lancher and the other for the receiver), four automatic butterfly valves and 2 KH multi-way valves.
