Membrane filtration is the most common method for achieving microbiological stabilization of beverages without using chemicals or heating. As an alternative to pasteurization, cold stabilization preserves the aroma, flavor and fine structure of the wine.
Membrane filters such as EPM provide absolute retention of microorganisms that cause damage to the wine. Filters of fine purification of the EPV type, which have a high mud capacity and resource, provide excellent protection of the membrane element and increase its working life.
Features and applications
Necessary conditions for perfect final filtration of wine:
- Careful preliminary preparation of wine material.
- Pre-filtration of wine through a filter press with high-quality filter board.
- Availability of sterile service media.
- Prepared storage tanks equipped with filters for sterile breathing.
- Thorough sterilization of equipment and all materials in contact with wine.
- High level of sanitary-hygienic state of production facilities.
