Case Study Main Edition Release: Craft Beer Brewery (Process Filter)

Case Study on the Introduction of Process Filters in a Craft Beer Brewery (Main Edition vol.1)

Donaldson's process filters are also used in craft breweries. In fact, we spoke with a craft brewery in Kochi Prefecture that utilizes Donaldson's process filters. In this volume 1, we present an interview format discussing the customer's beer-making process and their experience with the filter products.

Case Study on the Introduction of Donaldson Process Filters at a Craft Beer Brewery (Overview)

At the brewery in Kochi Prefecture, they were considering not only serving beer at the restaurant adjacent to the factory but also offering it in cans with a longer shelf life and allowing for room temperature distribution. In addition to the clarification process, a sterilization process was also necessary, but they were exploring non-thermal methods to avoid compromising flavor. Centrifuges and pasteurizers were among the candidates, but of course, cost considerations were also important, and they were looking into other options. <For more details, please refer to the downloadable PDF or contact us.> Products Introduced: - Modular skid - Bag filter element: L-BE liquid bag filter → Removal of hop debris and large turbidity components - Trap filter element: Absolute filtration depth filter "PP100 N-TR" - Fine filter: Liquid process filter element "PP100N" → Clarification process: Clarification and removal of residual yeast - Final membrane filter element: Sterilization grade membrane filter "PES-BN" → Stabilization (sterilization) process: Complete removal of residual yeast and bacteria removal

Process cartridge filter capable of removing narrow contaminants that affect beer quality, suppressing off-flavors, and controlling clarity.

By using filters for the removal of residual yeast and bacteria, we provide microbial stabilization that eliminates the need for heat treatment. Donaldson's process cartridge filters are available for beer filtration and low-temperature stabilization. *Low-temperature stabilization: Instead of low-temperature pasteurization, sterilizing filtration is performed to remove microorganisms that cause spoilage.* We offer a range of sizes with flow capacities from small flows up to approximately 2400 Ltr/H. Therefore, they can be used with tanks currently in operation (ranging from a few hundred liters to 4000 liters). With a simple combination of filters, we enable the adjustment of beer.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.
