CleanSmoke

Have you ever thought about a clean smoking process for smoked salami or raw fermented ham products? A clean smoking process that realizes significantly reduced emissions and energy consumption from cold smoking based on a smoke generation method that can be run in a closed loop without fire or explosion hazards? CleanSmoke is the answer. CleanSmok... e is the new concept for cold smoking processes and co-funded by the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME) as a project to grant this innovative technology with all its benefits compared to traditional smoking methods access to the food processors in the European Union. Red Arrow, the worldwide market leader for purified primary smoke products, developed this innovative smoke generation system. Based on the use of purified primary smoke products the smoke is freshly generated in the so called SmartSmoke section of the CleanSmoke system. The CleanSmoke system can replace combustion and friction smoke generators used in cold smoking processes at industrial food processors. The main advantages of this new smoking technology are reduced emissions (air, water, waste), reduced energy and water consumption, safer smoked food products and improved workmanship safety. The target of the CleanSmoke project is to introduce this innovative smoking technology in the EU market starting in 2 EU countries with an annual production volume of 3,600 tons of cold smoked products. Another objective is to penetrate the EU market by introducing this new smoking technology in further 7 EU countries. The new CleanSmoke smoking process will enable EU food processors to improve the environment, the food safety, the workmanship safety and the economy of cold smoking plants with a fast return on investment. As the CleanSmoke smoking process will take place in a closed system with the SmartSmoke section as its centerpiece by circulation the smoke in a closed loop between the smoke generator and the smokehouse, CO emissions will be reduced up to 80 %.
