Trap filtration and clarification of beer

Trap filtration and clarification of beer

The trap filtration of beer after the kieselguhr filter is a system that allows not to use a filter presses. In this system, filtration is carried out in a closed case with minimal loss of carbon dioxide without the contact of beer with air, preserving the taste of the drink. At the same time, product losses and labor intensity of the process are significantly reduced.

Benefits

Trap filtration is widely used in the EU countries and in Russia (including large beer corporations). It allows to significantly reduce the cost of consumables (in comparison with the filter carton) and the costs due to product losses.

The trap filtration system consists of a filter holder (see below) with a set of filter cartridges.

Recommendations for filter cartridges

Filters for efficient and economical trap filtration of beer

NPP Technofilter presents a cartridge filter EPVg.P for high-quality trap filtration of beer with the possibility of multiple washing and regeneration.

CHARACTERISTICS

ADVANTAGES

100% full polypropylene filter cartridge with excellent performance and high chemical resistance.

  • Wide chemical compatibility (pH 1-14). 
  • Excellent thermal stability (up to 90 ° C).
  • Longer service life due to increased surface area (pleated).

High efficiency of microparticle retention (98-99.5%)

  • Available with a wide range of rating from 0.2 to 20 microns.

Reinforced structure, stable matrix

  • Reliable integrity of the filter in harsh environments.
  • Withstand steam sterilization in line, multiple backwash rinses and all types of sanitation treatment

Non-toxic

  • Certificated for application in the food-processing industry, produced according to the certificated system of a quality management GOST R ISO 9001-2015 (ISO 9001: 2015)

Operational characteristics

  • The maximum pressure drop - 0.5 MPa at 20 °C, 0.25 MPa at 80 °C 
  • Rinsing with hot water (at least 100 cycles) – 90 °C, 30 min 
  • Steam sterilization (at least 20 cycles) - up to 135 °C, 30 min 

Filter housing of the DS type for liquid filtration

NPP Technofilter presents a series of filter holders of the DS type are made of stainless steel AISI 304 and AISI 316L.

The filter holder type (height and number of filter cartridges) is selected depending on the filtration.

Distinctive features of DS-1, DS-5, DS-8 filter holders

  • High quality polishing of external and internal surfaces.
  • Availability of internal arias for inspection and washing.
  • The absence of hidden and hard-to-reach spaces due to an additional separator.
  • Absence of dead space.
  • Complete emptying of the liquid through drain valves.
  • High tightness of the media interfaces (initial medium / filtrate / external medium) due to the accuracy and cleanliness of machining the seet places for adapters and surfaces for sealing elements
  • Simplified on-site installation due to swiveling connection of nozzles and base. Pressure gauges to control hydraulic resistance are supplied.
