Membrane cleaning new development
• How?
‒ Studies about Influence of the brewing process on the filterability;
‒ Analysis of blocked membranes ;
‒ Simulated membrane blockages and cleaning under defined process conditions;
‒ Intensive cooperation with :
• VLB/ TU Berlin
• Weihenstephan
• Agrotechnology & Food Sciences University (Wageningen, NL);

Efficiency Performance
Life Cycle Cost, Output
Low beer losses ( 0.1 % (extract)), Quality increase of the filtrate
Low energy consumption (haze 90o/ 25o Iron..TS,)
Low water consumption Highest flexibility (brand change)
no centrifuge Big scale< > Small batches
Footprint Reliability
Small footprint Modular scalable design
no DE handling, (storage/disposal..) Increased demand or season peaks
100% adaptable to existing process
Chemicals & Waste Simple to operate
chlorine-free cleaning
No (neglect able) disposal Retention
BMF is a permanent
defined barrier
