BENEFITS
Key benefits of Pentair X-Flow Beer Hollow Fiber Membrane Technology include:
- Optimized pore size distribution for a reliable blocking of yeast and strong reduction of beer spoiling bacteria
- Ideal polymer for food contact, cleaning chemicals and high temperatures
- Iron pick-up free so a clearly better taste stability
-
SUSTAINABLE QUALITY
-
Iron pickup is prevented when use of diatomaceous earth filter-aid is avoided, reducing the aging process and thereby improving the taste stability of beer.
-
SUSTAINABLE SUPPORT
-
Experience greater peace of mind as Pentair BMF experts handle the entire project management of the Beer Membrane Filtration System installation, with dedicated service support for its lifetime.
-
SUSTAINABLE OPERATION
-
The use of membranes brings with them a more sustainable way of working.
Unlike kieselguhr which is single-use, membranes are resuable and last several years, this results in a lower CO2 footprint.
The harmful disposal of filter media waste is also no longer needed.
