Table 4: The influence of syrup dosage
being used can easily be upgraded due
to their modular setup. Since there is
automatic filling error detection in the
density and CO 2
meters, users can be
confident that their sample filling has
been done correctly.
Less reference analysis in daily
work routines
For anyone still using the complex
molybdenum blue or titration methods
for diet drink analysis, Anton Paar’s new
beverage analyzing system can help. It is
easily adjusted and operated. A reference
for %Diet measurements is only set
at the beginning of batch production,
which reduces the demand for reference
analysis by 75 % and saves users money
on costly chemicals and consumables.
Conclusion
The quality of a diet beverage is largely
influenced by three factors: process water,
citric acid, and syrup ingredients. This
study showed that these three factors
have a negative impact on production
target values. Because of this, analyzing
these during the whole production
process is best done with a system based
on density measurement.
