Custom moulded filter screen assemblies Moulded screen insert assemblies from Minnesota Rubber and Plastics are custom designed for water processing and beverage applications to filter out fluid contaminants. Filter screen assemblies remove small-suspended particles before water enters additional steps in municipal water purification systems. The manufacturer claims that these assemblies can also increase beverage shelf life and maintain consistent flavour by filtering out sediment and small particles that can contaminate

juices and other manufactured beverages.

With the Bokela HiBar Oyster Filter particularly finest particulate systems and/or very hot and pressurised suspensions from reactors can be filtered, excellently washed and demoistured.

A range of screen options are available in materials for difficult filtration applications allowing use with different fluids. Filter assembly orifice sizes available range from .71 mm to 1.4 mm. Custom designs are available to filter out contaminants of all kinds, and can be engineered for removal and replacement. Minnesota Rubber and Plastics provides material science capabilities developed specifically for fluid filtration applications. These capabilities include design, mould and automated assembly facilities for cost-effective filtration solutions says the company. The design and manufacture of filter screen assemblies and how to successfully integrate them into various product applications is a core expertise Minnesota Rubber and Plastics.

Bokela Dyno Precoat-Filter produces a particle-free filtrate.

Achema Hall 6 Booth C61 Bokela GmbH, German manufacturer of filtration technologies, will present the precoat filtration which is the latest Bokela Dyno Filter process. This process combines cake forming filtration and crossflow filtration and is applied to completely recover solids from a suspension and to produce a particle-free filtrate. Dynamic precoat filtration offers process solutions for difficult separation tasks e.g. with hot suspensions, suspensions containing solvents and/or fine particles where state-of-the-art technologies like membrane filters or centrifuges fail.

The Oyster Filter of is an automatically and continuously operating pressure rotary filter with cake washing and optionally with steam pressure zone. It is especially designed for the chemical, food, pharmaceutical and the life science industry. The Oyster filter is available as drum filter with filre sizes of 1 m² up to 13 m² filter area and as disc filter with up to 24 m² filter area. Maximum operation pressure ranges up to 16 bar while maximum process temperature ranges up to 200 °C. The HiBar steam pressure filtration process enables an intensive cake washing and uniquely low cake moistures. This is all carried out continuously in a single process. www.bokela.com

Technical textiles finds uses in other markets To increase of technical textiles in other markets market has led to A. Monforts Textilmaschinen is attending filter more technology and composite materials specialist shows Making a debut at Filtec in Cologne, Monforts also participated at the recent JEC Composites Show in Paris for the first time. Monforts offer special machines for specific impregnation processes that are required for composite materials. These are fibre types such as glass fibre, basalt or carbon, which are connected by a plastic matrix such as resin and are used in lightweight construction in particular. www.filtsep.com

“The aerospace industry, as well as the automotive industry, is increasingly using these substances in order to save weight. That is why the growth figures are so huge,” explains Jürgen Hanel, responsible at Monforts for Technical Textiles. “Modern filter technology makes greater use of textiles today than it does of paper,” said Hanel.

The company only started to play an active role in this sector some four years ago and activities have included selling machines for glass fibre cloth. Technical textiles have their own special requirements profile when it comes to finishing. For example, they react strongly to humidity or
