Kerasep® Mineral Membranes for industrial cross-flow filtration

The Kerasep® ceramic membranes are the industry reference for micro and ultrafiltration. In the last 20 years, more than 60,000 m² have been installed worldwide for the production of:

Organic acids: Lactic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, etc.
Amino-acids (lysine, threonine, MSG, tryptophan, etc.) and bulk antibiotics
Cane and beet sugar, glucose syrup, polyols and sweeteners derivatives
Milk and whey derivatives
Chemical intermediates: 1,4-PDO, 1,4-BDO, HMF, furfural, etc.
Cellulosic sugars: fructose, xylose, arabinose, fructose, mannose, etc.

Thanks to our 30-year experience with ceramic membrane manufacturing and utilization, the Kerasep® membranes are designed with the best balance between filtration surface, hydraulic diameter, chemical and mechanical resistance.

Among other, the Kerasep® range includes:

Cut-offs	Geometries	Main products treated
0.1 µm	BW, BE, BH, BX	Antibiotics, amino-acids, glucose/fructose
300 kD	BW, BX	Liquid sugar, organic acids, amino-acids, glucose
150 kD	BW, BX, BH	Amino-acids, chemical intermediates, milk derivatives, organic acids
15 kD	BX	Chemical intermediates

*A very well known application for Kerasep MF/UF membranes is the clarification of fermentation broth, as an alternative to centrifugation.
