Filtration Applications for the Food & Beverage Industry
WATER
Water is a critical resource for all Food and Beverage production.
It is used to transport and wash raw vegetables, and as a vehicle for cooking and cooling.
Producing some beverages begins with pure, clean water, free of any particulate and sediment.
CULINARY STEAM | PROCESS STEAM
Culinary Steam comes into contact with the final product and is required to meet 3-A Sanitary Standards for dairy and food processing. Culinary steam must be filtered to remove all bacteria and contaminants.
Process Steam is used as a source of energy for heating, and cooking foods. It does not come into contact with the final product but Filtration is critical to maintain and protect equipment.
STERILE AIR
Aseptic Packaging
Air and gases used for aseptic packaging must be sterile filtered to remove all bacteria.
Tank Ventilation
Storage tank vent filters prevent bacteria and particulate from entering the tanks.
Carbon Dioxide
Certain gases are required to be sterile filtered
COOKING OIL
Filtration is necessary to remove the build up of contaminant in cooking oils to maintain oil life as well as the odor, taste, and overall quality.
LAKOS CSX Series Separators and FrySafe Systems are specifically designed to continuously remove the crumbs and fines from cooking oil that are generated during the frying process.
BEER | WINE | SPIRITS
Beer, Wine, and Distilled Spirits are filtered to remove unwanted solids, haze, and are sterile filtered to remove biological contaminants from the product.
FLAVORS | FRAGRANCE | COLOR
Similar to the Beverage industry, Flavors, Fragrances, and Color Additives are filtered for optic clarity, sterilization, biologic contaminant removal, and removal of any unwanted solids.
