Opening ceremony Office building Brewery gate

Zhujiang (Pearl River) Beer is one of the most

famous beer brands in China. Presently, Zhujiang

(Pearl River) Beer has annual capacity of 20 million

hl and is ranked second for single brand sales. In

China, Zhujiang (Pearl River) Beer is credited with

"Southern Pearl".

Guangxi Zhujiang (Pearl River) Brewery is located

in Nanning ASEAN Economic Development Zone.

The total planned investment for this brewery,

covering more than 20 hectares, is approximately

RMB 525 million and will be realised in two phases.

The brewery is planned to have an annual

capacity of 4 million hl.

The first phase project is planned to have annual capacity of 2 million hl with a total investment of

RMB 300 million.

This brewery combines the advantages of optimised

industrial design and optimised process flow design,

advanced high technology equipment, and fully

automated control. The plant is an additional

important production facility of Zhujiang (Pearl River)

Breweries. The installations and the equipment,

including a 40,000 bph electronic-valve packaging

line have been designed to produce non-pasteurized

beer.

The project started in March, 2010. Lehui was

awarded the contract to realise this project turn-key.

The contract covered raw materials handling system,

brewhouse, yeast system, fermentation shop,

filtration system, bright beer shop, and packaging

lines. The project was co missioned successfully

taken into production in May, 2011.

Ningbo Lehui Simons Machine Co., Ltd is

a subsidiary of Ningbo Lehui Food

Machinery Co., Ltd.

Ningbo Lehui Simons Machine Co builds

on the experiences and competences

of Ningbo Lehui and Beijing China

Zhongqing Ximenzi. Ningbo Lehui shares

knowledge and experience in product

system, well advanced processing

systems and equipment, experienced

staff, and well-developed after-sales

team. Beijing China Zhongqing Ximenzi

is recognised for experience and

technology know-how of raw material

handling systems and processes, as well

as equipment manufacturing. Therefore

Ningbo Lehui Simons Machine Co can

provide excellent turnkey service to

clients with European quality and at a

Chinese price.

The company can design, manufacture

and supply the following main products:

milling equipment, conveyor equipment,

dust aspirating system, cleaning system,

Vacuum evaporation & thermal energy recovery system

Lehui supplied a complete 650 hl brewhouse

system consisting of a Lehui Mash Filter, two

mash tuns and premash tun, and an automated

dynamic low pressure boiling & vacuum

vaporizing system. The advanced and modern

technologies applied have effectively reduced

the occupation rate and allow 12 production

batches each day.

The performance indices (KPI) of this Lehui

brewhouse are equivalent to international state-

of-the-art levels.

The low pressure dynamic boiling & vacuum vaporizing system effectively reduced

vaporization by 4%. With the 100% energy recovery system, steam consumption is reduced

through energy re-circulation.

With the process requirements satisfied, "U"

bend is minimized to reduce liquid and material

accumulation at pipelines, ensuring the

cleanness and the flavor, reducing the energy

consumption and cleaning.

In addition, the sorted and well-organized

pipeline routes also give the brewhouse a

beautiful appearance.

LEHUI MASH FILTER

Site control interface

Hydraulic side of mash filter

The Lehui mash filter is one of the most advanced wort

filtration systems. This excellent filter system is also

incorporated in this brew house system.

Major features:

Single point high hanging filter fixation may achieve

successive pull-plate structure, facilitating smooth

transportation, rapid filter cloth changing, and easy

operation.

Through the non-membrane cabinet type, the filter

plates are connected one by one. The filter area is

larger compared to the membrane filter type. In

addition, high maintenance costs are avoided as

membrane filter plates need to be replaced after

several times of pressurization and air bleeding. The

cabinet type filter cost is approximately a third

compared to the price of membrane plate, which is

also advantageous in terms of maintenance cost.

The investment and maintenance cost are low

compared to membrane filter for the same

capacity.

Single set of mash filter may handle 25T malt to 3fulfill 130m brew charge. With the filter plates, it

may meet different filtration requirements for

different charges.

High efficiency filter cloth auto cleaning ensures

effective cleaning and reduces maintenance

cost, without manual operation and interference.

With special center mash intake and sparging

technology, the mash filter ensures even and

balanced distribution of mash and thorough

sparging, which guarantees the yield, extends

intervals between cloth cleaning and reduces

water consumption.

Fully automated operation without operator

assistance required.

The different systems in the fermentation shop

were designed in order to minimize operator

interference and operational cost. Pipe routing

of the various systems (yeast propagation,

yeast storage, CIP cleaning, and de-aerated

water preparation) was optimised and

minimized to reduce power consumption.

Direct ammonia cooling for the outdoor

installations was applied also to reduce power

consumption.

The project includes two Lehui beer packaging

lines, one common beer packaging line with a

capacity of 36,000 bph and one electronic

valve packaging line for non-pasteurized beer

with a capacity of 40,000 bph. The packaging

lines are fully automated, from de-crater to

palletizer to minimise operator assistance.

The two packaging lines run effectively and

stable and at modern performance levels.
