Isoflux™ are tubular ceramic membranes specially developed for the food and bio-industry.
Product description
Isoflux™ improves the performance of existing separations and enables separations that were previously difficult or impossible to carry out.
The Isoflux™ membrane makes it possible to maintain a constant permeate flux at every point of the membrane without using a complex and expensive system. To achieve this, the thickness of the separation layer decreases from the membrane inlet to the membrane outlet, so that the ratio of pressure to layer thickness remains constant.
In contrast to conventional membranes, where the permeate flux decreases from the membrane inlet to the membrane outlet, the Isoflux™ membrane achieves a permeate flux that is uniform across every point of the membrane.
Fields of application
Food processing
- Milk bacteria removal
- Whey bacteria removal
- Milk casein / whey protein separation
- Fat / protein separation from whey
- Syrup bacteria removal
Bio-industry
- Enzyme/protein extraction from fermentation broth
- Bacteria separation
Properties of Isoflux™ ceramic membranes
- High permeate performance
- Easy to use (classic filtration loop)
- Flexible use (flexible options regarding duration, pressure, cleaning)
- Reduced fouling risk, because
- all channels function in the same way
- the membrane layer thickness remains stable despite the gradient
- the membrane support is standard
- geometric configuration is compatible with other existing industrial systems
