Membrane Filtration and Concentration for Tea Deep Processing
Membrane filtration and concentration technology offers an efficient low-temperature purification method for tea deep processing. Combining microfiltration, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis, it removes suspended solids, pectin and colloids from crude tea liquor at room temperature, avoiding thermal damage to tea polyphenols, theanine and natural aroma. This modular system supports lab, pilot and commercial scale production for tea juice clarification and concentration. It features low energy consumption, easy CIP cleaning and water recycling, ideal for ready-to-drink tea, instant tea powder and tea polyphenol raw material production.
Spiral Wound Ultrafiltration Membrane for Food & Beverage Clarification
Food and beverage manufacturers require gentle, low-cost clarification processes to preserve natural flavor, color and active ingredients while removing suspended solids, colloids and microorganisms. Spiral wound ultrafiltration (UF) membrane integrates large membrane area into compact pressure vessels, delivering continuous cross-flow filtration at moderate operating pressure. This paper describes the structural design, separation mechanism, core benefits, operational control and typical food industry applications of spiral wound UF systems. It also discusses fouling prevention and CIP procedures tailored for organic feed streams.
Tubular Membrane for High Viscosity & High Solid Content Feed Treatment
Traditional filtration equipment faces serious blocking risks and frequent maintenance when handling feed liquid with high solid loading, high viscosity or large particulate matters. Tubular membrane, characterized by large flow channels and robust mechanical strength, becomes an ideal solution for these tough separation tasks. This paper illustrates the structural features, working mechanism, key operating parameters, anti-fouling advantages and typical industrial applications of tubular membrane systems. It also compares tubular membranes with hollow fiber and spiral-wound membranes, and introduces proper cleaning strategies to maintain stable long-run flux.
