1) Continuous Process to Sanitize Eggs An inventor has an idea for a new method to sanitize eggs, which is the process of cleaning the shell prior to packaging. Her idea is to have a series of chutes that contain the raw, dirty eggs and then have them drop into a large vat of a heated dilute solution of xanthan gum and water (95C) and then free-fall until they are captured at the bottom. She measured the terminal velocity (v.) to be 2.5 cm/sec. The requirement is that the center of the egg must reach 35C to both sanitize the egg shell and maintain internal egg quality. Question: Determine the residence time in the bath and the height of the bath required to achieve this residence time. Is this a reasonable design for an industrial process? Sketch and Label the problem. Show all work. Given Information: XG Solution: viscosity = 4 x water; density = water Egg Diameter (d) = 4 cm; Tinitial) = 15C; V.. = 2.5cm/sec; Thermophysical Properties of an Egg Density (p)=1035 kg/m; Specific Heat (Cp): 3.56 kJ/kg-K Thermal Conductivity (average): kavg = 4.56 x 104 kJ/m-s-K
