CHAPTER 1: CHARACTERISTICS OF JUICE PLANT

1.1 Characteristics of raw material

Orange juice is a popular drink made from oranges by extracting fresh orange juice
by squeezing or squeezing fresh oranges. For orange juice products that are manufactured
in an industrial fashion, orange juice can be extracted from concentrated orange juice and
saved and added with preservative additives, then bottled for consumption. Orange juice
contains flavonoids that are healthy and a source of antioxidant hesperidin. At the same
time in orange juice contains a lot of vitamin C, has the effect of strengthening resistance,
preventing fatigue. Orange juice often varies between orange and yellow, although some
ruby red or orange colors are orange or even pinkish. In orange juice containing sugar,
organic acids, essential oils including isoamylic, geraniol, teryrineol ... orange juice has
sweet, sour, honey-tasting properties, has the effect of refreshing, new fluids, bile, sputum
and diuretic. As a nutritious beverage, drinking lots of orange juice also helps your hair stay
healthy. Health experts in the UK claim that just one glass of orange juice a day can help
improve skin, hair and nails because oranges are high in vitamin C, potassium and folic
acid. Vitamin C is needed in the production of collagen with super nutrients lutein, which
delay the aging process of the skin. The yellow pigment in oranges is associated with
reduced sun damage caused by sunlight, and improved skin elasticity.

1.1.1 Fresh orange

Oranges are among the world's most popular fruits, any of several species of small
trees or shrubs of the genus Citrus of the family Rutaceae and their nearly round fruits,
which have leathery and oily rinds and edible, juicy inner flesh. A number of species and
varieties of orange are economically important, namely the China orange, also called the
sweet, or common, orange (Citrus ×sinensis); the mandarin orange (C. reticulata), some
varieties of which are called tangerines; and the sour, or Seville, orange (C. ×aurantium),
which is less extensively grown.

Page | 1
Chapter 1: Charracteristics of Juice Plant Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

The orange is a hybrid between pomelo (Citrus maxima) and mandarin (Citrus
reticulata). The chloroplast genome, and therefore the maternal line, is that of pomelo. The
sweet orange has had its full genome sequenced.
Orange trees are widely grown in tropical and subtropical climates for their sweet
fruit. The fruit of the orange tree can be eaten fresh or processed for its juice or fragrant
peel. As of 2012, sweet oranges accounted for approximately 70% of citrus production.
In Vietnam, being a sub-tropical plant, orange thrives best in the cool climate of
northern Vietnam, especially in the highlands. The cold nights allows the fruit to develop a
deep orange color, on the tree at maturity and a pleasant aroma and an ideal combination
of sweet and sour.The main production areas are in the northern provinces of Ha Giang,
Yen Bai, Lang Son, Phu Tho, Hanoi, Thanh Hoa, Ninh Binh, Nghe An and Ha Tinh. But
oranges are also grown in the South, mainly in Can Tho, Tien Giang, Vinh Long, Ben Tre,
Dong Thap, Tra Vinh, Dong Nai.

Structure

Essentially, an orange is a ball of juice sacs protected by a waxy skin, the peel. The
peel consists of a thin outer layer called the flavedo and a thicker, fibrous inner layer called
the albedo. Orange-coloured substances called carotenoids in the flavedo give the fruit its
characteristic colour. Vesicles (small sacs or cavities) containing peel oil also present in the
flavedo contribute to the fruit’s fresh aroma. The white spongy albedo contains several
substances which influence juice quality, often negatively, if they find their way into
extracted juice. These substances include flavonoids, d-limonene, limonin and pectin.
The edible portion of the fruit is known as the endocarp. It consists of a central fibrous
core, individual segments, segments walls and an outer membrane. The segments contain
juice vesicles, or juice sacs, that are held together by a waxy substance. Seeds may also be
present within the segments.

Figure 1: Structure of orange fruit


Apart from the juice itself, droplets of juice oil and lipid are also present in the juice vesicles.
The juice contains sugars, acids, vitamins, minerals, pectins and coloured compounds, along with
many other components.

Orange's carbohydrate content varies are between 15% to 10%. Carbohydrates in
orange; as sugars and polysaccharides can be analyzed in two main sections. Sugars in
orange, respectively sucrose (3.46%), fructose (2.45%), glucose (2.27%). Orange's glisemic
index is 62. Moreover, sorbitol as a derivative of sugar in some fruits are not definitely

Page | 3
Chapter 1: Charracteristics of Juice Plant Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

available in orange. The main polysaccharides found in fruits are cellulose and
hemicelluloses which the basis of cell wall substances. Also, they are found in large
amounts in orange shell, core zone membrane. Cellulose and hemicelluloses are separated
and discarded in waste at process of orange juice. However, a portion goes to pulp. The
dominant fiber is pectin in orange. Orange includes pectin which has 70% with 65% of the
total fiber.
Benefit
Today, they are grown in most warm regions of the world and consumed either fresh
or as juice. Oranges offer many health benefits: They may boost your immune system, give
you better skin, and even help improve your health heart and cholesterol levels. In addition,
some evidence suggests that eating oranges may help reduce the risk of respiratory diseases,
certain cancers, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcers and kidney stones.
Most citrus fruits have a good deal of vitamin C, and oranges have high levels even
compared to their tangy brethren. Vitamin C, a potent antioxidant, protects cells by
scavenging and neutralizing harmful free radicals. In addition to vitamin C, oranges contain
fiber, potassium and choline, all of which are good for your heart. Potassium, an electrolyte
mineral, is vital for the healthy functioning of the nervous system, and a lack of potassium
can lead to arrhythmia (an irregular heartbeat), increased blood pressure and a depletion of
calcium in bones. The fiber in oranges may help lower blood sugar levels in people with
type 1 diabetes and improve blood sugar, lipids and insulin levels in people with type 2
diabetes.

1.1.2 Orange season

Being a sub-tropical plant, orange thrives best in the cool climate of northern Vietnam,
especially in the highlands. The cold nights allows the fruit to develop a deep orange color,
on the tree at maturity and a pleasant aroma and an ideal combination of sweet and sour.The
main production areas are in the northern provinces of Ha Giang, Yen Bai, Lang Son, Phu
Tho, Hanoi, Thanh Hoa, Ninh Binh, Nghe An and Ha Tinh. But oranges are also grown in

Page | 4
Chapter 1: Charracteristics of Juice Plant Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

the South, mainly in Can Tho, Tien Giang, Vinh Long, Ben Tre, Dong Thap, Tra Vinh,
Dong Nai.
The time to start their crops is also extremely diverse, but on average, the orange crop
starts from September to March next year. Thus, there will be months when the factory
does not have raw materials to meet the production needs of the factory. So, the crop
problem of orange greatly affects the operation of the plant during the year. The factory
must focus on this issue and propose appropriate solutions to ensure the continuous
operation of the factory.

1.1.3 Storage

Plastic crates or boxes are used for storing fruit. Sweet oranges should be stored with
three or four layers per box. Too many layers in one box may cause bruising of the fruit.
Boxes should be stacked inside the cool storage room with temperature from -2oC to
15oC in a way that maintains good ventilation. For the first few weeks of storage, ventilation
windows should be left open. Throughout the storage period, the windows should be left
open at night or in cold weather, in order to cool the fruit.
When temperatures are high in the day time, the ventilation windows should be closed.
Sunlight should not be able to penetrate inside the storage room. Any rotting fruit that are
found should be removed.
Storage rooms should be constructed in places where cold air can flow into the room
at night. The storage room should have a high roof, to allow better circulation of cold air at
night. Ventilation windows should be small but there should be a large number of them, to
allow better air circulation. It is recommended to that some ventilation pipes should be
buried under ground, to bring in cool air through the floor of the room.
The roof and walls should have good heat insulation, to keep temperatures as cool as
possible. The storage room should be insect-proof and rat-proof. A good storage room is
the key for extending the shelf life while maintaining fruit quality. The room should be kept
clean, and all rotting fruits should be removed. Before storage, the room should be sanitized
by washing the walls and floor with 5% formalin.

1.2 Characteristic of juice products

1.2.1 Contaminations of product

The contamination of juice can be divided into three groups including physical,
chemical, and biological contaminants.
Physical contaminants are foreigned impurities mixed into the material during
cultivation, harvesting, storage or transportation. They can be sand, dust particles that are
stricked on the fruit surface, metal pieces, stones or insect carcasses, theses impurities when
entering the human body can cause some physical effects such as teeth broken, throat
damage, stomach,.. However, this hazards can be easily eliminated by sorting and washing
carefully the input materials. Most of impurities containing in final product are mainly
originated from poor QA/ QC of manufacturer.
Chemical compounds contaminated into materials can come from a variety of sources
such as natural elements available in the soil or toxic compounds that are discharged
directly to environment during the industrial activities of humans (lead, mercury, cadmium,
polychlorinated biphenyls, ..). These toxic compounds can also be the metabolites produced
by contaminated microoganisms during their metabolism activities or chemicals
compounds that human intentionally use in agriculture in oder to increase the crop yield
(pesticides). This source of contaminants can cause serious affect to customers health if
they are not strictly controlled.
Biological infects in food analysis consist of three main aspects: microoganisms,
viruses, and insects. Besides toxic chemical compounds, this type of contaminant is
considered as the main reason for food poisoning, especially to pathogenic bacteria
infection.
However, orange juice products have some properties that can limit the contaminated
microoganism from growing, for example, juice contains low pH value, normally varies
from 4 to 4.5, this property can inhibit partially the microoganism, when combine with the
pasteurized operation, almoslt they are killed by both low pH and hight temperature
conditions.

1.2.2 Sensitve attribute of products in storage and distribution

Orange juice is well – known for its vitamins content, however, these vitamins are
relatively senstive and can be loss during processing or storage at ambient condition,
especially for vitamin C. Typical concentrations of vitamin C in freshly extracted juice
range from 450 to 600 mg per liter, but the values for orange juice when consumed range
from 200 to 300 mg vitamin C per liter. Therefore, some appropriate conditions should be
considered in oder to maintain the vitamin content of final products as high as possible until
they are in hand of customers.
Oxygen content
Oxygen plays a major role in the loss of quality in orange juice during storage, mainly
for its responsibility of vitamin degradation and colour changes (become browning).
Vitamin C is the most oxygen-sensitive compound in orange juice. Its loss is thus closely
related to oxygen content in packages.
Generally, vitamin C is lost through two different chemical pathways – anaerobic and
aerobic degradation. As its name implies, the anaerobic pathway is independent of oxygen
and dependent mainly on storage temperature. Losses caused by anaerobic degradation
cannot be prevented by packaging and are the same in all types of package. The only
possible method is to reduce storage temperature. The aerobic pathway needs oxygen and
is therefore strictly related to the presence of headspace oxygen and oxygen dissolved in
the juice, as well as the oxygen-barrier properties of the package. In aerobic vitamin C
degradation, the presence of 1 mg oxygen corresponds theoretically to a loss of 11 mg
vitamin C. This calculation is based on the reaction in which vitamin C oxidizes to
dehydroascorbic acid. Both anaerobic and aerobic degradation take place simultaneously
in orange juice. Which one dominates depends on storage temperature and oxygen
availability.
For packages with good oxygen-barrier properties, for example glass bottles,
anaerobic degradation plays the major role regarding total vitamin C loss. In cases where
oxygen permeation into the package is considerable, headspace oxygen is present or oxygen

Page | 7
Chapter 1: Charracteristics of Juice Plant Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

is dissolved in the product, the contribution of anaerobic degradation to total vitamin C loss
is small compared to aerobic degradation.
Temperature
Storage temperature is also the important reason for vitamin C degradation. As a
result, the loss of vitamin C is much more at high temperature conpared to that in chilled
condition. Figure shows the change in vitamin C content in orange juice during storage for
30 weeks at 4°C and 23°C respectively in the same package type (Tetra Brik Aseptic, TBA,
250 ml). The calculated vitamin C loss due to anaerobic degradation is indicated in the
graph. The difference in vitamin C retention between storage at 4°C and 23°C is obvious.
During 30 weeks storage, an increase in temperature from 4°C to 23°C results in increased
losses of vitamin C of 28 mg/l due to anaerobic degradation, and 42 mg/l due to aerobic
degradation.
As mentioned, the rate of oxidative degradation of vitamin C is slowed dramatically
under chilled storage. Consequently, packages for chilled distribution do not need as high
oxygen-barrier properties as packages stored at ambient temperature.

Figure 2: Effect of temperature on vitamin C content in orange juice during storage.

Light: Light is known to accelerate the aerobic (but not an-aerobic) degradation of
vitamin C. Therefore, light has an effect only when the oxygen is present. Consequently,
for packages with low oxygen permeation rate sush as glass and high barrier PET bottles,

Page | 8
Chapter 1: Charracteristics of Juice Plant Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

the impacts of light is not significant. However, for which packages that have low oxygen
barrier properties, the limited contact of light to the products is very necessary.

1.2.3 Role of distribution system

In juice processing, the company can implement both B2C (Business to Consumers)
and B2B (Business to Business) or one of them depending on the characteristic of each
factory.
B2C means that the company will supply the packaged juice to cunsumers under its
own brand name. For this type of producers, there are many requirements on the distribution
system and also the marketing skills. Products will be distributed through different levels
such as retailers, supermarkets,.. before being sold to customers. Therefore, it is necessary
to perfect the distribution system in oder to optimize the profits of manufacture.

Figure 3: B2C distribution system

In the other hand, B2B companies mainly sell their products in bulk forms
(concentrated juice) to other manufactures, which carry out the downstream operation to
produce the final products. Besides, during the processing, there are some secondary –
products that can be sold as the input materials for other industries, such as peel oil which
is sold to flavour manufacturers for the production of various flavour compounds used in
the beverage, cosmetics and chemical industries; dry wastes (containing peel, rag, seed,

Chapter 1: Charracteristics of Juice Plant Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

pulp) left over from juice processing is used for animal feeding; peel for the manufacturers
producing pectin,..

1.2.4 Customer behaviors

Customer behaviors depend on many different factors, such as:


Gender: Normally, juice products is consumed by mostly women, while other
beverages such as alcoholic drink (beer, rượu,..), tea, coffee,.. are much more attracted to
men.
Age: According to a research of Vinaresearch in 2013, the highest frequency of juice
consumption (1 time/day) belongs to the 16 – 29 years old group, while for the age group
of 30 – 35 years old, almost 36.1% people uses juice for 2 to 3 times per day.

Figure 4: Juice consumption habit by age

Income: High – income people will use this product more frequently.
Brand: Consumers prefer to purchase products orginated from well – known
manufacturers as Vinamilk, Coca Cola, Tan Hiep Phat,..
Package: This is not only important in preserving the products from outside conditions
but also contributing to the consumers attraction. The popular packages using in orang juice
are tetra pak, carton pack, plastic bottles, glass bottles.
Volume: Almost consumers prefer using juice bottles that have capacity from 100–
500 ml.

Others: Addition of nutrients, against hunger, want to try, habit,...

Figure 6: Juice consumption habt by package volume (per point of 5)

1.2.5 Scale up ability.

Overall, the ability to scale up of juice processing is relatively easy to perform due to
some reasons:
― The large amount of orange material cultivating in dosmestic
― The diversity of material.
― The technolical process is relatively simple compared to other food industries.
― Many production method.
― The production can be converted into automation.
― Low labor cost.
― Can standardize the final product easily.

CHAPTER 2:SOCIO – ECONOMIC CONTEXT

2.1 Situation of market

2.1.1 Volume and demands

Recent market research shows that the trend of using juice, fruit juice and fruit juice
is increasingly popular. The reason, promoting growth in this industry is because consumers
are increasingly interested in healthy drinks. This is a good signal for manufacturers of
natural fruit juices. The Ministry of Industry and Trade forecasts that the market for fruit
and vegetable juices will reach 6 billion liters in 2017, as consumers are increasingly
interested in natural fruit juice products. The juice product group will continue to grow at
an average rate of 17.5% per year over the next 5 years.

Figure 7: Market share of fruit juice in the United Kingdom in 2016 by flavor

According to the research result about market share of fruit juice in the United
Kingdom in 2016 by flavor, orange juice accounts for the largest market share, 64%
compared to the market share of fruit juice. In Vietnam, the volume of soft drink market
increase from 800 million litters to over 3,5 billion litters during 2010 – 2015.
About demand: Nowaday, because of health needs, consumers tend to like to use
nutritious products that contribute to improvement. Fruit juice is also one of those options.
By bringing many health benefits, especially skin beauty and fruit juice has been replacing

Page | 12
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

gas drinks in the market. The average soft drink consumption is more than 23 liters / person
/ year. Inside, Vfresh orange juice gets highest selection (69.3%).

2.1.2 Necessity of the related products

As mentioned above, because of the problem of not enough raw materials for factories
to produce continuously for a year, the production of more related products in the factory
is a useful solution. The first concentrated fruit juice that we mentioned, the factory carried
out the production of concentrated fruit juice in the first time, when the material was not
enough to maintain the plant's operation, her juice The concentrate will be brought to
reconstitution to produce the juice as usual. Similar to fruit juices, concentrated juice also
occupies a large market share globally.According to research result about Global
Concentrated Fruit Juice Market Size and Forecast, during 2015 to 2024 the market size
continue to increase rapidly.

Figure 8: Global Concentrated Fruit Juice Market Size and Forecast 2015- 2024 (US$ Billion)

Besides concentrated fruit juice, another product that can be produced in the factory
is bottled water. With a fruit juice production line including a water treatment system, the
production of additional bottled water is a viable, easily feasible solution. However, the
launch of bottled water products to the market will certainly encounter many risks because
currently bottled water products are very diverse with very famous brands, such as

Page | 13
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

Aquafina, Vinh Hao, Lavie, …So the market segment for this product will have to be
narrowed to ensure it is not competing by famous brands.

2.1.3 Possibility of export

The export market for beverages is growing, especially due to health needs, so fruit
juice is exported in large quantities. Market demand assessments in Vietnam as well as in
the world show that demand for fruit juice products increases. Thus, its export potential is
huge. In particular, foreign markets, particularly European countries with cold climates or
Asian countries with a tropical climate, prefer tropical fruit juice products. Therefore, the
export of fruit juice has the opportunity to implement and highly competitive in the market.
Since 2013, Europe's fruit juice exports have increased by an annual average of 2%
in both volume and value, reaching € 6 billion, equivalent to 5.7 million tons in 2017.
European countries The highest export growth rate in the last 5 years is Romania (25%
annual growth; especially for non-concentrated orange juice), Cyprus (22%; especially
citrus juice). ) and the UK (16%; especially with a mixture of fruit juices).
Fruit products with the largest export share are concentrated and non-concentrated
orange juice (accounting for 31%), most of which are re-exporting orange juice imported
from Brazil.
In the our country, there have been many enterprises focusing on production with
modern technology investment and high quality products to export to foreign markets.
Viet Nam exports juice to countries like America, Korea, Japan, …Vietnamese drinks
exported to the Korean market have soared 7 times in the last 4 years because many Koreans
like tropical fruit drinks.

2.1.4 Possibility of distribution system

The fruit juice market is growing for several years, and will be continuing to expand,
mainly because these products are aligned with general trends regarding food and beverage
consumption. So, distribution system must have some change to adapt that thing. Juice
distribution from the juice packer to the retailer is becoming increasingly complex. Given
that consumers expect to find their favourite drink when and where they need it, retailers

Page | 14
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

have expanded their channels to market. Physical stores come in many formats – forecourt
sales outlets like petrol stations, convenience stores, supermarkets, hypermarkets and
discounters. Every major retailer operates many formats. Digitalization and automation
help to track and trace products to ensure they are available for consumers when and where
they want them.

Figure 9: Distribution system for orange juice

2.2 Possibility of market development in future (Hiếu)

2.2.1 Global market

Global fruit juice market is predicted to continue growing due to the rising in health
awareness among consumers and also the introduction of new products. The global fruit
juice market valued USD 82.4 billion in 2016 and is expected to expand at a compound
annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4% over the forecast period 2016 – 2024. Global fruit
juice market is projected to reach USD 110.2 billion by the end of 2024. The US, Germany
and Japan are the top juice consuming countries, consuming a combined 9.9 billion litres
of juice in 2015. In the US, consumers drank more than 6.7 billion litres of 100 percent
juice, just under a third of the worldwide total. Per capita this amounted to 20.9 litres per
person per year, the fourth highest per capita consumption globally after Canada (30.1 litres
per person per year), Norway (25.4 litres) and Germany (21.7 litres).
Among fruits, orange is still the most popular flavour globally accounting for 46% of
total juice sales, followed by apple with 17%, but both are seeing a decline, while the health-

Page | 15
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

conscious option of mixed vegetable and mixed fruits is seeing a rise in demand. Cranberry
and mango have also seen significant growth, but from a much smaller base. But
outstripping them all in growth is coconut water, which has exploded from a niche to a
fashionable mainstream product in just a few years. In the last year, Americans drank nearly
94 million litres of packaged coconut water, increased by 15% conpared to the previous 12
months.

Figure 10: Proportion of each fruit used in global juice consumption in 2016

2.2.2 Vietnamese market

Vietnam beverage industry is now entering the potential period for developing the
drink consumption due to the rise of economic in general and consumers living – standards
in particular. In 2016, the total drink consumption was over 7.0 billion liters and is expected
to rise to the value of 9.1 billion liters in 2020. Similiar to non – alcoholic drinks industry,
the consumption is predicted to increase from 3.5 to approximately 4.9 billion liters, which
is equivalent to USD 7.3 billion, in 2020 with the very impressing CAGR value of about
6%.

water, while that of carbonated and energy drinks were significantly decline during the 3
years period. For more detail, in 2014, the percentage of juice in Vietnam account for

Page | 17
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

approximately 11%, but this rosed up to 15% in 2017, that means more and more people
interest in using drinks which bring many health benefits to their body.

2.3 Strength of price and distribution system

2.3.1 Material cost

Constructing plant near material place is an big advantage, that decrease transport
charge, decrease manufacturing charge, increasing competitive opportunities in market.
The price of orange when buying at the garden is only 5,000-7,000 VND / kg while the
price of commercial orange is 30,000 - 50,000 VND/ kg, 10 fold higher than when buying
directly. Thus, it can be seen that the construction of factories near raw materials has a huge
price advantage. Great savings in production costs.
The reason was that the fruit, which is the major raw materials for the production for
the juice is not readily available all year making it difficult to source at certain times of the
year. Also the need to test the market acceptance and quantity of the juice products the
market can take is another factor.

2.3.2 Labor cost

Nowaday, due to the strong development of science and technology, many production
facilities have gradually shifted to automate and modernize production facilities so the
number of workers in the juice production industry has also decreased. Salary for ordinary
workers is about 4 million VND / person / month. When the number of employees decrease,
the labor cost in the factory will be reduced, saving part of production costs and the more
chance of competition in the market

2.3.3 Distribution and saling cost

In any business, investing in costs for distribution and sales is a very important job.
Usually, this cost is quite high among indirect costs that businesses need to invest. When
this cost is reduced, improve the competitiveness of businesses in the market. It depends on
the location of the factory, infrastructure and capacity of the plant.
+ Traffic and infrastructure are not developed → Increasing distribution cost

Page | 18
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

+ The factory operates with too high capacity → The amounts of products created is
too much, exceeding the market demand → Must make efforts to sell to avoid inventory
→Costs for marketing and saling increase.
2.3.4 Efficiency of process
Traditional methods are still employed in the extraction of juice from fruit. These
involved macerating fruit with hand or peeling, slicing, blending and pressing the fruit.
These methods are not only energy sapping and time consuming, but also yield low quantity
juice and are unhygienic. Thus, traditional method of juice extraction cannot be employed
for small to medium scale production to meet local commercial need. Therefore, in oder
to meet this demand, we need to develop a small to medium size mechanical device that is
capable of extracting juice from a number of tropical fruit crops.

2.4 Threats

2.4.1 Competition from import

Nowadays, there are many kinds of imported fruit juices from different countries in
the world: Europe, Thailand, Korea, Japan, ... with a highly competitive price with the
domestic market.
Table 2: Price of orange juice of some countries

Country Average price for 330ml (VN dong)


Viet Nam 10 000 – 20 000
Korea 20 000 – 30 000
Thailand 15 000 – 30 000
Consumers tend to choose imported products because (Australia, Thailand) tastes
more fragrant and real, the price is only 15-20% higher. Because Vietnamese fruit juices
do not taste good, the natural and often sweet taste loss is difficult to drink

2.4.2 Capacity of competitors

Nowadays, when the market for fruit juices is growing, the fruit drinks are gradually
replacing the kinds of soft drinks with gas, more and more businesses turn to produce these
items, contributing Part of making a diversified market for fruit juice in the country. Besides

Page | 19
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

the fruit juice brands of Vietnamese companies such as Vinamilk, Tan Hiep Phat, which
are trusted by many people, the products of international beverage companies like Coca-
Cola and Pepsico also have a large market share. In addition, there are many products of
other domestic brands, though not as well known as the above brands, but their products
also contribute to increase the market share of fruit juices.
Not only do ordinary fruit juices produce, nowadays businesses also produce many
other types of products related to attracting consumers such as: milk juice, fruit juice and
vegetables, ...
Thus, the construction of our factory will face huge competition. We must strive to
work out solutions, improve processes and product quality to stand firm in the market in
the future

2.4.3 Risks of technologies

Fruit processing industry in our country has great potential but processing technology
is limited, not meeting domestic and international demand. The market for fruit juice
products is competed by imported products with modern production technology so the
product quality is higher, attracting consumers' attention.

2.4.4 Risks on quality and consumer belief

Recently, consumers across the country have always nurtured the worries before the
situation that manufactured goods do not guarantee quality, food is dirty in the market.
More than ever, the problem of dirty food and goods of unknown origin, the production
process does not guarantee food safety and hygiene has been emerging many urgent issues.
refreshments, harmful information to the brand always takes place like meals. Even so, if
handled improperly, the consequences will be extremely disastrous.
Tan Hiep Phat is typical of that harm. At the end of 2014, because a fly in a water
bottle, this brand had lost 2,000 billion VND (according to what Tan Hiep Phat
representative announced).
Not only property damage, but also consumer confidence about the product gradually
decreases. This will greatly affect the business situation of any business. –
Page | 20
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

–Water is currently obtained from boreholes on the farm. A threat exists that the
quality might not be up to standard for the required use for juice making→ Wastewater
needs to be handled before discharging into the environment
–Raw material constraints. Seasonality of raw material is the main supply constraints
→ Not uniformed product → Quality of produce not being up to standard as required by
buyers → Appearance of rumor→ Loss of consumer belief.
Therefore, in order to minimize to the extent of unnecessary rumors, businesses must
always ensure safe production, ensure HACCP or ISO 22000 and strictly control of
production process.

2.4.5 Capital

In order to conduct a business production cycle, capital is needed. The capital


expenditure refers to the estimated expenditure or costs incurred during the acquisition of
assets needed to establish a juice processing plant, such as cost of renting premises,
repairing premises; equipment and tools, advertising and sales costs, …These assets will
be vital to the operation of the juice processing plant. Therefore, the enterprises need to
have the management and use of capital effectively to preserve and develop capital, to
ensure that businesses are increasingly develop and need calculating carefully, ensure
enough capital to manufacturing.
When the capital source is not enough to produce, production is interrupted leading
to many consequences: no money to pay workers, electricity and water costs and other
services.

2.4.6 In stock

According to the report of the General Department of Statistics, Inventory index of


processing and manufacturing industry as of November 1, 2017 increased by 9.3%
compared to the same period last year (same period in 2016 increased by 8 , 8%) food
processing up 3.9%

Page | 21
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

Figure 13: Inventory index of food production and processing 75.2% (08/2017)

The number of inventories is too large while the market demand is not high, leading
to an increase in storage costs, in the long run will lead to a shortage of capital for
production, production disruption, more serious is possible closed factory. There are many
reasons for the juice to be in stock:
⎯ Enterprises do not know the market, production exceeds the demand of consumers
⎯ The distribution and sales are not good
⎯ Do not optimize the required storage level
⎯ The warehouse system has not been well managed.
Summarize, in production and business, the factory needs to minimize inventory in
order to avoid shortage of capital for production, maintain a stable production line.
2.6 SWOT analysis
Strengths
– Abundant material sources in country (approximately 976 thousand tonnes).
– Low labor cost.
– Diversity of retail system.
– Product is rich in nutritional value.
– The product price is more affordable compared to other drinks.
– Large and potential market.
Weaknesses

Page | 22
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

– Limitations on capital, science and technology.


– High competition with foreigned company such as Coca Cola, Pepsico,..
– Poor in food safety management
Opportunities
– Vietnam has a young population structure with 62% of population belongs to the
age group of 15 – 45 years old, this group has the greatest demand on soft drink
consumption.
– Vietnam is located in a tropical climate zone, the temperature is predicted to increase
by 1 – 2% in the next 10 years, thus, promote the demand of drinking of people.
– The development of fast food trends also contributes to increased demand in soft
drink industry.
– Growing demand for fresh juices: People become more and more focused on health
fruit juices are growing in popularity.
– Vietnam enters international organizations like WTO, APEC, this will benefit to
Vietnamese exporters, with the gradual removal of market barriers and trade restrictions set
to increase.
– In line with consumer’s rising income, there are opportunities for
premium-branded products.
Threats
– The increase in competitors from foreigned country. –
– Not stable material sources, depend on cultivation.
– The increase in material cost, production fee, tax,..

2.7 Capacity estimation

The juice product is mainly served for consumers at Southern Vietnam including Ho
Chi Minh city, Mekong Delta region..., thus the capacity of factory is designed based on
their consumption demand of product, which is approximately 1.7 – 1.8 million liters per
day. Besides, when estimating the productivity, we also consider to the ability to supply
materials of enterprise. Because the orange material is mainly supplied by local provinces

Page | 23
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

as we do not import this from foreign supplier, thus the stability or availibity or orange
during season is extremely important for factory.
Another note is that orange is a seasonal fruit which have the harvesting season
normally last from September to March of the next year, so that the production plant must
be carefully calculated to stabilize the output product.
After analyzing 3 factors above, the factory capacity is estimated to produce
approximately 15000 liters of juice, equivalent to 4 500 000 liters per year.

2.8 Product design

2.8.1 Product quality

The product is designed as a nutrious drink for people of all age with high content of
vitamin, mineral, antioxidant compounds and other basic nutrients for body. Most of the
calories in orange juice come from carbohydrate. There is almost no fiber or starch in
orange juice so most of the carbs in juice are provided in the form of sugar. The fat and
protein content in orange is minor, which account for less than 0.1% and 1%, respectively.

2.9 Factory location

2.9.1 Location criteria

Availability of materials
The factory must be placed close to the raw material supllier in oder to reduce the
transportation cost, especially for sensitive materials like vegetable and fruit. This criteria
is very necessary to ensure the quality and quantity of input orange.
Near to the markets
The fatory is near the maket not only to reduce the transportation costs but also for a
quick product suppliment to the customers. If the plant is located far away from the markets

Page | 26
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

then the chances of spoiling and breakage become high during transport. If the industry is
nearer to the market then it can grasp the market share by offering quick services.
Availability of labor
Another most important factor which influences the plant location decisions is the
availability of labor. The combination of the adequate number of labor with suitable skills
and reasonable labor wages can highly benefit the factory.
Infrastructure, transportation facilities
The plant location must have high infrastucture and transportation facilities for more
convenients in importing and exporting the materials and products.
Availability of power and water: To ensure the stability in production of plant.
Suitability of climate: Climate is really an influencing factor for the labor efficiency
and productivity of plant. For juice factory, the humid and dry conditions are not
appropriate for plant location.
Government policies: While selecting a location for the plant, it is very important to
know the local existed Government policies such as licensing policies, institutional finance,
Government subsidies, Government benefits associated with establishing a unit in the urban
areas or rural areas.

the factory. Tien Giang usually places as a top province in the whole country in terms of

Page | 28
Chapter 2: Socio – Economic Cont Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

fruit cultivation are and fruit yield with the value of over 68 251 ha and 815 360 tons of
fruti per year, respectively. This makes Tien Giang a very potential location for food,
espectially fruit industry. In addition, industry sector also develops at a high and stable rate.
During the period of 2001 – 2006, the average growth rate was 20.66% per year. In 2007,
it was over 45.6% in camparison with 2006, contributing to raising the proportion of
industry and construction sector in the economic structure up to 25%.

Road: road networks in Tien Giang link with national highways and freeways, which
is very convenient for traveling and transporting goods from Tien Giang to the other
provinces of Mekong Delta and Ho Chi Minh City.
Waterway: the waterway system with a length of over 1,679 km is very convenient.
Large rivers such as Tien River, Vam Co Tay River, Soai Rap River, Cho Gao Canal,
Nguyen Van Tiep Canal, etc. connect provinces of Mekong Delta with Ho Chi Minh City
and are the gateway to East Sea for provinces along Tien River. Particularly, Tien River is
an international connecting route to Cambodia, so Tien Giang has advantages to become a
marine transport center of Mekong Delta to connect it with other localities in the country
and other countries in the region.
Electricity: electricity network has covered the entire province with over 2,405 km of
medium voltage cable and 1906 km of low voltage cable obtaining electricity from the
national electricity network through intermediate transformer stations of 110/22KV and
220/22KV whose total transforming capacity is 552.8 MVA, providing electricity stably
and continuously for the province.

3.4 Enzyme Pectinase

Function
Pectinase is an enzyme that breaks down pectin, a polysaccharide found in plant cell
walls. Commonly referred to as pectic enzymes, they include pectolyase, pectozyme, and
polygalacturonase, one of the most studied and widely used (citation needed) commercial
pectinases. It is useful because pectin is the jelly-like matrix which helps cement plant cells
together and in which other cell wall components, such as cellulose fibrils, are embedded.
Therefore, pectinase enzymes are commonly used in processes involving the
degradation of plant materials, such as speeding up the extraction of fruit juice from fruit.

3.5 Potassium sorbate

Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, chemical formula


CH3CH=CH−CH=CH−CO2K. It is a white salt that is very soluble in water.
It is primarily used as a food preservative due to its inhibition to yeast, mold and some
aerobic bacteria. The antimicrobial activity of potassium sorbate is related to pH. This
compound is more active at low pH values of foods but essentially ineffective at neutral
values.
Potassium sorbate is permissible in foods at levels not to exceed 0.2%. The respective
acceptable daily intakes (ADI) is: 25 mg/ kg by weight per day. The acute toxicity of sorbate
is rare, however, in some cases, it is reported as a reason for urticaria and contact dermatitis.

4.1 Sorting

Technological purpose: Preparation for washing sector.


This step is operated to ensure the quality of raw materials by removing the damaged
fruit or cutting/trimming parts of the fruit which are partially damaged. Avoiding
substances that are produced from the damage that occurs in the worms affect other fruits
and affect sensory quality of the product.
Transformation of material

Page | 37
Chapter 4: Juice process design Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

Physical: Size: Standardize raw materials, ensuring the material to achieve size
uniformity. Mechanical damage can occur on the surface of fruit when traveling on a
conveyor but not significantly.
Equipment: In this step, manual method with the support of conveyor is selected.
Description: The conveyor belts are made of plastic modules, assembled in an
interlocking pattern. Combined with full-length hinge rods, this creates an inherently strong
design.
Principle of operation: The fruit are put on conveyors. Workers stand along the
conveyor to remove unripe or damaged fruit. The speed of conveyor belt movement is slow
enough for workers to trim the fruit directly. The width is about 0.6 to 0.8 m for the workers
to reach the central position of conveyor.
Technological parameters:
― Speed of conveyor: 0.02 m/s.
― Conveyor width: 0.8m.

4.2 Washing

Technological purpose: Preparation for the extraction operation.


This step is operated to remove sandy soils, dirt, microorganisms from the peel.
Remove some toxic chemicals used in agricultural techniques, such as pesticides or plant
protection drugs residue, toxic compounds from the metabolism of microorganisms.
Transformation of material
Physical: It may cause some mechanical damage to the fruit surface during washing.
However, the damage is not really serious.
Chemical: Loss of some water-soluble vitamins during washing.
Biological: The material is cleaned and the quantity of microorganisms on the surface
are
reduced.
Equipment: Bubble washing machine with conveyor belt is selected.

Page | 38
Chapter 4: Juice process design Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

Description: The machine consists of a stainless steel conveyor and a large volume
washing tank. The conveyor is divided into three sections, the horizontal part submerged in
water, the sloping section with strong water sprinklers and a horizontal section on the high
side. Underneath the conveyor belt, the inlet portion is equipped with bubble device,
improve soaking and washing effect.
Principle of operation: The washing step includes two periods: soaking and washing.
During the soaking period, the material on the horizontal section is submerged in water, the
dirt on the peel of the fruit is softened and move away. The effect of immersion process is
enhanced by blown air, thus increasing the contact area of the fruit and water, so that the
immersion time is shortened. The conveyor belt will carry fruit to the sloping section. High
pressure water from the sprinklers system will completely remove all the dirt. At the end of
the washing process, the fruit is transfer to the upper part. Depending on the dirt, it is
possible to adjust the conveyor belt speed. If the material is too dirty, the conveyor belt will
slow down, increasing the washing time. If the dirt is less, the conveyor belt may go faster
to increase the productivity.
Technological parameters:
― Conveyor belt speed: 0.14 - 0.15 m/s.
― Water pressure of sprinklers: 2 - 3 atm.
― The amount of water needed to wash: 0.7 to 1 liter/ kg of material.
― Water temperature: 25 °C.

Page | 39
Chapter 4: Juice process design Dr. Lai Quoc Dat

Preparation: Reduce the size of material for better enzyme treatment efficiency.
Exploitation: Eliminate almost the pulp and seed out of material, only collect the juice.
Transformation of material
Physical: Size is reduced to about 0.03 – 0.05 mm. The temperature of materials may
increase slightly due to friction. A slight drop in mass of material can be observed due to
some
parts that are traped inside equipment.
Equipment: The The Squeezer-Type Extractor is selected.
Description: Figure 12 shows a squeezer-type extractor. This equipment is placed
after the washsing machine and can ben equiped with up to five heads, which are available
in different sizes so that they can handle the type and quality of fruit availabe. Typical sizes
are 2, 3, 4, and even 5 inches. The head size for each extractor in a line is chosen to optimize
the handling of sized fruit. The extractor separates the fruit into four parts – pulpy juice,
peel, core (rag, seeds and pulp) and oil emulsion.
The head of an extractor comprises an upper and a lower cup (see Figure 13). The
cups have metal fingers that mesh together as the upper cup is lowered onto the lower cup.
A cutter comes up through the centre of the lower cup to cut a hole through the skin in order
to allow the inner parts of the orange to flow out.
Principle of operation: Once the strainer tube has cut into the fruit, the upper cup
squeezes down on the lower cup. This pressure initially forces the juice to burst out of
the juice vesicles and pass through the perforations of the strainer tube. Remnants of the
ruptured juice sacs will pass through with the juice as pulp. The upper cup continues to
squeeze down on the lower cup to extract as much juice as possible.
Eventually, the downward pressure causes the peel to break up, disintegrate and pass
up through the fingers of each cup. Juice flows through the strainer tube into the juice
manifold. The core material is discharged from the bottom of the strainer tube through the
orifice tube.
Technological parameters:
― Pressure: 1.3 atm.

Equipment: Plate heat exchanger is selected.
Description: The equipment include series of thin plates that are press-formed with a
corrugated pattern on the surface and sealed with synthetic rubber gaskets. These gaskets
help to seals the flow channel and directs the fluid into alternate channels.
Principle: The steam or vapour enters through one of the upper connections and the
condensate leaves through the connection underneath. The liquid enters through one of the
lower connections and leaves through the connection above. As the fluids pass through the
heat exchanger, heat is transferred from the steam to the media. Specially designed sealing
gaskets located between the plates direct the fluids so that the hot and cold fluids pass
counter-currently in alternating channels. When the fluid enters between the plates, it passes
over the distribution area. This area ensures an even flow of fluid over the entire plate and
maximize the heat transfer efficiency. After heating, liquid-vapor mixture is discharged at
the exit and then enters the cylindrical vessel, it is separated in the vessel to obtain
concentrated liquid and secondary steam. The secondary steam is the recycle to the system
for energy saving.

CHAPTER 5: MASS BALANCE & ENERGY BALANCE

5.1 Mass balance

The orange fruit harvest season in Vietnam starts form September to Match of the
next year, therefore, to ensure the stabilize the quantity of output products throught out the
year, the factory need to produce both juice (not from concentrate – NFC) and concentrated
juice. The juice that is not from concentrate will be supplied to the market by distribution
system while the other will be stored in warehouse due to its high resistance to microbes
contamination. The storage time can last from 6 to 12 months, even several years it is
preserved in the ideal conditions (frozen temperature). When the input material (orange) is
not enough for the production, the concentrate is rehydrated and mixed with appropriate
amount of additives, syrup and performed the pasteurization and packaging as in NFC juice
production line.
The estimated productivity of factory is about 48 tons of main material per day. Half
of it is used for NFC juice production, the other goes into the concentration operation.
Calculated for 1000kg of orange fruits.
A whole fruit consists of skin, pulp, seed, juice with the proportion of each is about
25 : 5 : 4 : 66, respectively. Theoreically, 1000 kg of material will produce 660 kg of pure
juice, however, loss in quantity of material can be observed for each operation which results
in the reduction of expected amount of juice. The estimated loss of each operation is shown

5.2.1 Gantt chart by process

The factory operates 2 shifts per day, each shift lasts for 8 hours. The first one starts
from 6.am to 2.pm, another from 2.pm to 10.pm. The workers will take a 1 – hour break for
each shift, however, the break will take place alternately so that it does not affect so much
to the production schedule.
The production plan is devided into 2 periods, the first period which last for 6 months
(from Septemper to March of the next year), the factory wil produce juice directly from
orange fruit, while the other period, the juice will be rehydrated from concentrate.
For the first period, 48 tons of orange fruit is carried out for each day.

7.1 Layout of plant

Feature of layout
Product warehouse
― Amount of product box in day: 1 696 (boxes)
― Size of each carton box: 50 x 35 x 20 (cm)
― Product boxes will be put in pallet that its size is 110 x 110 x 20 (cm), so we will
arrange 6 boxes/ pallet, each pallet has 7 layers and 42 boxes.
― Height of each pallet: 1.6 m
― Pallets will be arranged in shelfs that its area (L x W = 1100 x 110 = 121 000 (cm2)
= 12.1 m2. Each shelf has 5 floors, each floor has 10 pallets.
― The number of pallets in each shelf: 50 pallets. Two shelves are arranged in a pair,
the other racks are 4 m apart, 1.5 m from the wall
― The amount of shelf we need in a day: 1 shelf
― Estimate product will be stored in 16 days, so we need 21 shelfs or 10 pair of
shelves
― Area of product warehouse to store enough product in 2 weeks:
F0 = (22x2+ 1.5x2+4) x (1.1x4 + 4x3 + 1.5 x2) = 989.4(m2) ≈ 1000 (m2)
→Choose size of warehouse: L x W = 35 x 30 (m)
Fuel warehouse
The area of the warehouses is calculated by the following formula:
F0 = G× f0× N× k, m2
= 1.54 x 1.2 x 5 x 1.3 = 12.01m2
Where:
F0: Area of warehouse, m2.
G: Amount of materials to contain, tons / day.
f0: Standard area for 1 ton of raw materials, m2/ton
N: Number of days reserved.

k: Coefficient including the path, choose k = 1.3


→Choose size of warehouse: L x W = 12 x 10 (m)
Orange and auxiliary warehouse
Orange warehouse
⎯ Material storage warehouse is used to store raw materials for 6 days of production
of the factory.
⎯ Box to contain 1 ton of orange are sized: L x W x H = 1 x 1 x1 (m)
⎯ Amount of oranges needed to be produced in 1 day: 48 ton, → For 9 days, box
amount: 48 x 9= 432 (boxes)
⎯ Choose shelf:
✓ Boxes are stacked on shelves. Two shelves are arranged in a pair, the other racks
are 4 m apart, 1.5 m from the wall. Each shelf has 2 floors, 6 boxes each.
✓ The number of shelves to use is 72. Shelves are arranged into 3 of floors, each
floor has 2 pair of shelves.
✓ Choose a shelf with dimensions L x W x H = 3.5 x 2.5 x 2.2 (m)
⎯ With 36 pairs of shelves, orange warehouse area: (1.5 x 2 + 3.5 x 2 x 2 +4) x (2.5x3
+ 1.5 x2 +4x2) = 388.5 (m2)
Auxiliary warehouse
Because the transportation and supply of raw materials for the factory cannot be done
every day, the factory will build material warehouses to meet the production line
continuously.
The area of the warehouses is calculated by the following formula:
F0 = G× f0× N× k, m2
Where:
F0: Area of warehouse, m2.
G: Amount of materials to contain, tons / day.
f0: Standard area for 1 ton of raw materials, m2/ton
N: Number of days reserved.
k: Coefficient including the path, choose k = 1.3

CHAPTER 10: WASTE TREATMENT

10.1 Characteristics of Wastewater

Because in the production process need to use a large amount of water to wash
equipment, Wastewater from the equipment, factory hygiene,... The Wastewater contains
organic substances, even some toxic elements,.. thus handel it is very important for
surrounding residents safety and environment preservation.

treatment schemes have been designed and manufactured. The first scheme is an activated
sludge (AS) system. The second scheme is a two-stage up-flow anaerobic sponge reactor
(UASR). While, the third one is a two-stage UASR followed by an AS system. The three
schemes are located out-door and were operated at a temperature of 25 °C. A schematic
block diagram of the experimental layout is shown in below:

VSS. COD removal í accomplished within 30 h, and no further reduction in COD is


observed after that, with the steady state COD stabilizing at 30–50 mg/L. Furthermore, the
results of this test clearly show that COD removal efficiencies ranged from 10 to 99.5%
with about 1% of the initial COD is non-biodegradable even after 30 h of treatment. This
is to be excepted since any organic loading above the maximum microbial uptake will be
untreated.
The second treatment scheme: The two-stage UASRs are operated at a total constant
HRT of 13 h, throughout the study. OLR's varied from 5.49 to 15.5 kg COD/ m3 with an
average value of 8.7 kg COD/m3 due to a change in the influent composition
The third treatment scheme: The effluent quality of the anaerobic step does not meet
the standards set regulating the reuse of treated wastewater in agricultural purposes.
Therefore, the activated sludge system has been investigated as a posttreatment for the
UASRs effluent. The AS system was operated at three different HRTs namely, 10, 12 and
14 h.

10.3 Waste trash

― Industry region has arranged a concentrated waste dump to collect waste daily and
combined with functional waste treatment units to transport and treat garbage.
― Garbage is sorted at the source: separate organic and inorganic garbage. After that, trash
truck will move it to the landfills.
