Temperature control is vital to regulate the fermentation and maturation process. Monitoring air and steam flow, pressure profile, and other parameters alike to determine the causes such as waste or leaks helps maintain throughput and assure product quality. Operators are able to eliminate the threat of clogging by enabling the tight shutoff in both directions via pressure operated piston valves and reduce the need for multiple valves through the utilization of single body valves within the tank or vessel.
