Push-to-connect in-line filters introduced

This new line of in-line filters (photo) can be easily connected and disconnected for service on tubing applications. Designed with John Guest push-to-connect style fittings integrated into the Celcon plastic filter housing, this unique in-line filter product line offers versatility…

This membrane module can be cleaned by backwashing

With a membrane area of 10 m 2 and a 10-kD molecular weight cutoff, this new Flow-Cel module (photo) is optimally designed to filter protein-containing liquids with high solids content. The key feature of this cassette system is the ability…

A new, mineral-free depth filter medium

This firm has developed the bepure process, in which different types of high-purity cellulose are crosslinked to form a structure that does not require the addition of any inorganic material, even for sterile filtration duties. BecoPad P (photo) is characterized…

A new decanter generation for food-and-drink applications

The F Series represents a new generation of decanter. The GCF 405 is designed for products that are difficult to discharge, which makes it suitable for use as a clarifying decanter in brewing and beverage industries. The multifunctional machine with…

New, efficient decanters for environmental applications

Efficient acceleration of the product in the feed zone combined with an optimized discharge system enables the new C-Series environmental decanter line to boast a reduced power consumption of up to 20–30% for capacities of 20 to 90 m3/h. This…

These Filters Compactly Provide Large Membrane Surface Areas…

The ongoing scaleup of numerous microfiltration plants has increased demand for filtration modules with large membrane surface areas — a demand adequately met by the new Microdyn and Seprodyn tubular modules, MD220 TP 2L (photo) and SE220 TP 1L. While…

Powerful, high-flow filtration in a compact footprint

The AFR Series Tubular Backwash Filter System (photo) is designed for continuous, high-flow filtration (single-system flowrates up to 2,000 gal/min and 454 m 3 /h). The system is designed to replace a much larger eight-station tubular multiplex system in a…

Optimize spray drying with this simulation tool

Developed over the last three years, Drynetics is a concept for using computer simulations to optimize a spray drying plant (photo). The model is put into the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of full-scale spray dryers, and incorporates the know-how…

These membranes enable higher pressure operation of RO plants

This firm has modified its spiral-wound membrane elements in a way that enables reverse osmosis (RO) desalination plants to operate at pressures of up to 120 bars — considerably higher than the 80 bars used in conventionally driven, high-pressure RO…

Pista Turbo grit washer

The Pista Turbo grit washer contains new technology that can achieves grit retention of 95% down to 140 mesh particle size. It can produce drier and cleaner grit with less putrescible organic material. The new technology, called Tri-cleanse, features intense…
