Orient Filter Industries – Premier Food and Beverage Filter Manufacturers
What is a Food & Beverage Filter?
A food and beverage filter is a specialized filtration system designed to remove contaminants, particles, and impurities from liquids and gases used in food and beverage production. These filters ensure the purity, quality, and safety of the products while maintaining compliance with food-grade standards such as FDA and ISO certifications.
Types of Filtration Stages
Pre-Filtration: Removes large particles and sediments from raw materials.
Fine Filtration: Eliminates smaller particles, including microorganisms, to ensure product purity.
Polishing Filtration: Enhances the clarity and final quality of the beverage or food product.
Sterile Filtration: Removes bacteria, yeast, and other pathogens to ensure safety.
How Food & Beverage Filters Work
The filtration process involves passing liquids or gases through a series of filter media.
These media trap contaminants of different sizes and types at various stages.
Depending on the filter type, materials such as activated carbon, synthetic membranes, or stainless steel mesh are used.
The process may include pre-filtration, microfiltration, and sterilization to ensure a high-quality final product.
How to Choose a Food & Beverage Filter
Micron Rating:
Choose a filter with the appropriate micron rating based on the size of particles to be removed. Fine filters with ratings as low as 0.2 microns are ideal for sterile filtration.
Types:
Select filters based on application needs, such as cartridge filters for liquids or activated carbon filters for odor and taste removal.
Water Quality:
Assess the quality of the water or raw material being filtered. High turbidity or chemical content may require multiple filtration stages.
Backwashing:
Consider filters with backwashing capabilities to clean the media and maintain performance without frequent replacements.
