Ensuring High Purity, Consistency, and Safety
Today, most enzymes are produced on an industrial scale through a fermentation process using microorganisms, like yeast, fungi, and bacteria. Using specific organisms and maintaining a safe production environment is critical to producing the desired high purity enzyme. We offer solutions for enzyme filtration at different stages of the production process, from filtration of fermentation ingredients to final enzyme filtration before packaging.
Controlling the environment with optimal conditions for oxygen, temperature, pH, and nutrients for the specific organism is necessary during fermentation as a change in conditions can cause a breakdown of the fermentation process resulting in the loss of a production batch. All fermentation ingredients like water, nutrients, and chemicals for pH adjustment should be free of microorganisms that could jeopardize the quality, consistency, and safety of the batch. Our membrane filters for liquid filtration are validated for microorganism removal, this reduces the contamination risk from these additives.
We also have long and proven experience in satisfying critical air and gas applications in food products and process protection. For fermentation of air and gas or for tank venting during filling and emptying, we offer liquid/gas coalescers, activated carbon filters, particle filters and validated microbial, and bacteriophage removal filters.
After fermentation, fermenter broth clarification, concentration, and final enzyme filtration are key to achieving high purity. Our ceramic crossflow solutions for fermentation broth clarification offer enzyme manufacturers a modern single-step alternative to traditional technologies like centrifugation or DE filtration.
The last step of enzyme polishing and sterile filtration, can also be performed prior to packaging. We offer a wide range of membrane filters and new and unique depth enzyme filtration solutions depending on the specific requirements.
