Iodine Reduction & Blanching Module for Seaweed Processing

Thermal treatment system designed to reduce iodine content and prepare seaweed for food and cosmetic applications.

The blanching process lowers iodine levels, eliminates microorganisms, stabilises colour, and softens texture — ensuring safe and consistent raw material quality.

Key Features

• Effective iodine reduction for high-iodine species (e.g. sugar kelp) at 80–95°C
• Gentle treatment for low-iodine seaweed to preserve nutrients
• Integrated washing and pre-stabilisation in one system
• Controlled thermal process for consistent results

Benefits

• Improved safety and compliance for food applications
• Consistent product quality and appearance
• Optimised preparation for downstream processing
• Efficient and hygienic operation

Safe processing. Controlled quality. Ready for food-grade applications.
