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:
