Purification
The technology adopted for final processing of fermentation products depends on the type of end product involved and the quality required. Vogelbusch has innovative processing technologies to meet all its clients’ needs. We offer:
- Precipitation and decomposition processes of the sort typically used in the production of citric acid, crystalline glucose and gluconates;
- Crystallisation, separation and decantation processes, used to clarify fermentation solutions (or harvest the end-product in the case of yeast);
- Distillation and rectification processes which ensure conformity with the required product quality and minimise energy use in alcohol production;
- Molecular sieve processes for alcohol dehydration (widely used in biofuel production);
- Evaporation processes used for the energy efficient production of citric acid, the processing of still wash in alcohol production, and the production of glucose solutions;
- Chromatography processes for the enrichment of fructose and molasses as well as for innovative applications for pharma and biotechnology (eSMR)
