CFF:  Modules and Systems for Cross-Flow Filtration

More than 40 years’ experience in CFF

For more than 40 years, we have been designing, building and selling optimized cross-flow filtration (CFF) systems integrating mineral or organic membranes for production and purification of ingredients.

We offer CFF systems for nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration and reverse osmosis. We have a broad expertise in many types of filtration processes, including concentration, diafiltration, batch, fed-batch and continuous mode.

Our Cross-Flow Filtration Systems: your Benefits

Experience:

We provide CFF modules and systems from lab to industrial scale. Our engineering capability is backed by our expert process development services, including computer modeling and engineering, allowing easy and mastered filtration process optimization and integration.

Solution for virtually any filtration problem:

We offer CFF Cross-Flow Filtration modules and systems for microfiltration, ultrafiltration and nanofiltration, RO incorporating mineral membranes.

Commitment:

At Novasep, teams of agro-chemists, biochemists, process, mechanical and computer engineers combine their complementary talents to develop and continuously improve our systems for the separation of your ingredients.

Typical Applications for Cross-Flow Filtration Membranes

Modules and systems incorporating mineral membranes are ideally suited to the following processing needs:

• Bulk fermentation (antibiotics, vaccines, food additives, ferments, enzymes … )
• Milk and dairy products
• Sugars, sweeteners and derivatives
• Beverages (beer, wine, water, fruit juice … )
• Pharmaceuticals
