Process, apparatus and composition for calcium fortification of beverages are provided. The methods comprise continuously blending in water a calcium source, preferably calcium hydroxide, and an acid source for a time sufficient to produce soluble calcium salts, but with minimal precipitation. The acid source is preferably citric acid. The calcium salt solution remains in an in- line retaining reaction hold tube for the necessary period to produce calcium salt in solution without significant precipitation, and is then continuously and immediately added to a non-dairy beverage, such as orange juice, to calcium fortify the beverage. The pH of the calcium salt solution can be monitored to optimize the amount of soluble salt and minimize the amount of precipitate.

Procédé, dispositif et composition permettant d'enrichir des boissons en calcium. Les procédés comportent les étapes consistant à mélanger en continu dans de l'eau une source de calcium, de préférence de l'hydroxyde de calcium, et une source d'acide pendant une durée suffisante pour obtenir des sels de calcium solubles avec une précipitation minimale. La source d'acide est de préférence de l'acide citrique. La solution de sel de calcium est maintenue dans une chambre tubulaire de réaction sur conduite pendant le temps nécessaire pour produire un sel de calcium en solution sans précipitation importante, et est ensuite ajoutée immédiatement en continu à une boisson non lactée, p. ex. jus d'orange, pour enrichir la boisson en calcium. Le pH de la solution de sel de calcium peut être surveillé afin d'optimiser la quantité de sel soluble et de réduire la quantité de précipité.
