Spray Continuous Pan® (SCP®)
SED’s modular design vertical continuous pan with multiple chambers having honeycomb calandria features a bundle of tubes arranged in a honeycomb pattern without traditional top and bottom tube plates. A central downtake, equipped with SED’s uniquely designed six-blade mechanical circulator, boosts massecuite circulation for uniform crystal growth, higher exhaustion and higher heat transfer within the tubes. Automated chamber bypass system enhances the cleaning cycle efficiency as needed, while the overhead storage tank ensures an uninterrupted supply of feed and water to the SCP.

Why Is It Needed?
Improves sugar quality with uniform crystallization and better massecuite circulation.
Increases yield through higher exhaustion.
Efficient heat transfer and low ΔT operation significantly reduce energy consumption.
Handles all massecuite types while minimizing false grains and colour inclusion.
Compatible with low-temperature vapor, allowing seamless integration with MVR systems.
Fully automated system ensures easy operation and low maintenance.

Salient Features
Enhanced heat transfer improves crystallization and enables reliable operation with low-temperature vapors, ensuring MVR compatibility.
Improved circulation and uniform saturation reduces conglomeration, prevents false grain formation, minimal colour inclusion and deliver higher massecuite quality.
Large downtake enables efficient circulation.
Reduced massecuite stagnation due to the absence of tube plates, leading to lower washing steam consumption and minimized sugar recirculation.
Optimized design enables integration of larger heating surfaces, allowing for higher-capacity pans within a reduced footprint.
Reduced diameter and prefabricated single-piece chamber significantly lower transportation costs and minimizes installation time.
Efficient extraction of non-condensable gases (NCGs) enhances overall thermal performance, ensuring optimal steam utilization and reduced energy demand.
Superior material grades for calandria enhances equipment durability and extends service life.
Suitable for all types of massecuites (Refined, Raw, A, B and C).
Integrated state-of-the-art automation system enables real-time data monitoring and efficient control via DCS, eliminating the need for physical presence at the equipment.
Capable of operating across a wide capacity range, with chamber bypass functionality for individual chamber cleaning accessible at the click of a button.
