Definitions
- Filtration aids filtration media, a filtration process using them and a 'reigning ' method of said adjuvants.
- the present invention relates to new filter aids, which can be used in the filtration of liquids, especially fine beer. It also relates to a new filtration process using said new filtration aids. Finally, it relates to a new process for the in situ regeneration of said filtration aids as well as to new filtration media.
- Filter aids are substances used in solid-liquid separations with the formation of a deposit on a sieve or a support, either alone or in admixture with the substances to be retained and ensure by a mainly mechanical action, the efficiency of the separation. 5
- filter aids can be differentiated according to their main constituents.
- additives include perlites from volcanic rock, starch, cellulose and fibrous polymeric synthetics.
- the adjuvants described in the foregoing can be used either 0 in the technique known as pre-coating, or in the technique known as alluviation.
- One industrial sector in which filter aids are used is the brewery industry.
- beer after maturing in storage tanks, must be clarified and filtered prior to packaging to remove a certain number of impurities, in particular colloidal cloudiness as well as yeasts. After filtration, the beer then has a brilliant color and sufficient stability for its conservation.
- Beer adjuvant filtration is generally carried out using one of the following two techniques, namely mass filtration or alluvial filtration, the latter requiring the formation of a prelayer.
- Alluvial filtration by far the most commonly used, consists of depositing on the filtering medium and prior to the filtration proper, a first coarse size of the filter aid to protect the filtration medium (for example Hugies filters or flat filters) on the one hand and facilitate the cleaning of the filter after filtration and the cleaning of the filtration support on the other hand.
- a second precoat of the adjuvant of a size similar to that used for alluviation is deposited to help obtain a clear filtrate from the start of the filtration cycle.
- the adjuvant is mixed with the beer before filtration to form a suspension.
- This suspension forms during filtration a mixed cake containing both impurities and the adjuvant.
- the adjuvant cake containing the retained impurities, in particular the yeasts is removed by degreasing in the form of a thick suspension, commonly called slurry.
- the defatting is generally carried out by sending counter-direction in the filtering medium a pressurized gas-water emulsion which takes off the cake from said filtering medium and causes it to fall into the bottom of the filtration tank where it is collected.
- the adjuvant is deposited directly on the filter medium before the beer is filtered.
- filter aids in particular kieselguhr, however has a number of drawbacks.
- One of the main drawbacks is that the adjuvant can only be used for one filtration cycle.
- the brewer is then obliged to reject the adjuvant, in particular the kieselguhr, and to use a new quantity of fresh adjuvant.
- the almost spherical shape of the adjuvant particles requires the use of particles of a relatively large size, in particular greater than 100 ⁇ m, in order to obtain an acceptable permeability of the cake and leads to a filter medium of considerable thickness.
- the filtration efficiency is generally insufficient.
- the main object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks in large part, by proposing new additives which can be regenerated to a satisfactory level without using special installations.
- the object of the invention is also to propose a new filtration process using the new adjuvants of the invention, which makes it possible to obtain a liquid which meets current quality requirements.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a new process for regenerating filter aids.
- the invention finally aims to propose new filtration media which can be used in particular with the adjuvants of the invention.
- the new regenerable filter aids according to the invention which can be used for the filtration of liquids, especially fine beer, are characterized in that they include synthetic or natural polymeric incompressible grains or natural incompressible grains having a sphericity coefficient varying between approximately 0.6 and approximately 0.9.
- the sphericity coefficient is defined according to the method described in the publication "Particle size measurement", T. Allen, p. 76-77, Chapman and Hall Ed., London 1974.
- the new adjuvants according to the invention comprise grains of an average size varying between approximately 20 ⁇ m and approximately 70 ⁇ m, forming a filtration cake with a porosity of between approximately 0.4 and approximately 0.8 and d '' a specific mass varying between approximately 1000 and approximately 1500 kg / m 3 .
- the porosity of the filter cake is determined by the method described by R. Leenaerts in: La Filtration Industrielle des Liquides, Tome 1, Chapitre 2, governing Belge de Filtration Ed., 1974.
- the new adjuvants according to the invention comprise grains of an average size varying between approximately 20 ⁇ m with a standard deviation of approximately 10 ⁇ m and approximately 70 ⁇ m with a standard deviation of approximately 25 ⁇ m.
- the adjuvants of the invention have an average grain size of approximately 35 ⁇ m with a standard deviation of approximately 15 ⁇ m and a specific mass of approximately 1200 kg / m.
- the additives according to the invention form the framework of a porous medium which traps the impurities when they are deposited on its surface without immediately clogging up. To do this, there must be bridging between the particles adjuvant so that the impurities are lodged in the crevices located between the adjuvant particles without undergoing deformation or participating in the structure of the granular medium.
- Obtaining an adequate porosity of the porous medium is based on the use of an adjuvant whose shape promotes the formation of contact surface between the particles and whose particle size distribution is sufficiently tight to not give rise to a distribution of the pore size too large.
- the adjuvants have a grain form, intermediate between the fibrous and compressible form of the kieselguhr type adjuvants and the practically spherical shape of the synthetic ball-type adjuvants of the prior art which generate cakes of low porosity.
- the adjuvants of the invention comprise synthetic or natural polymeric incompressible grains or natural incompressible grains obtained in particular from polyamide, polyvinyl chloride, fluorinated products such as TEFLON, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene, certain silica derivatives, for example ryolites or glass, as well as their mixtures.
- polyamides belong to the family of products sold under the brand NYLON.
- the polyamide constituting the main constituent of the adjuvants of the present invention is polyundecanolactam.
- the adjuvants of the present invention are food grade and resistant to dilute acid and alkaline solutions. They also have sufficient resistance to abrasion and to regenerating agents, as well as to temperatures of the order of 100 ° C. They are moreover non-deformable under the effect of the filtration pressure.
- the invention also relates to a new method for filtering liquids.
- the process for filtering a liquid, especially fine beer, comprising deaeration steps, depositing a pre-layer on a filtration support, and recirculating, is characterized in that the filtration step is carried out with a filter aid according to the present invention.
- the proportions between the adjuvant and the liquid to be filtered vary between about 25 g of adjuvant / hl of liquid and about 250 g of adjuvant / hl of liquid.
- the filtration process follows the same stages as a filtration with kieselguhr until the end of the stage of the nachlaufs.
- the term “nachlauf” generally designates the step consisting, after the filtration cycle, of evacuating the beer from the filter medium by washing with water.
- steps consist in particular of degassing or deaeration of the filter comprising the filtering medium and the filtration apparatus.
- a pre-coat is deposited on the filtering support according to the conventional technique, namely at a flow rate close to 25 hl / hm 2 .
- the water filling the filter is then evacuated by passing the beer with adjuvant in the step called vorlauf.
- the filtration step begins and the filtrate obtained is then sent to the bottling unit.
- the method further comprises a stabilization step.
- This step can be carried out during or after the filtration step proper, using conventionally used additives, such as in particular silica gels, gallic tannins, etc.
- conventionally used additives such as in particular silica gels, gallic tannins, etc.
- PVPP polyvinylpyrrolidone
- stabilization is carried out concomitantly with filtration.
- the filtration method further comprises a step of in situ regeneration of the filtration aid.
- this step of in situ regeneration of the filter aid comprises the steps consisting in: - washing the filter medium with a solut : of soda, at a concentration varying between approximately 2% and approximately 5%. a temperature of at least approximately 80 ° C., for a period varying between ⁇ . ⁇ ⁇ : on 60 minutes and approximately 120 minutes, and
- the enzymatic composition comprises proteases as well as agents capable of lysing the yeasts.
- Enzyme catalysis agents can optionally be added to the enzyme composition in order to further improve its effectiveness.
- the enzymatic treatment is carried out when the pressure build-up per hour becomes too great and significantly higher than with an unclogged filter aid.
- unclean adjuvant is meant a fresh or fully regenerated adjuvant.
- the enzymatic treatment is carried out when the pressure rise in the filtration tank reaches approximately 80% of the maximum pressure authorized by the mechanical structure of the filter, that is to say in a significantly shorter period of time than with an unclogged adjuvant. , either with a significantly lower volume of filtered beer than with an unclogged adjuvant.
- the regeneration of the filtration aid also causes the regeneration of the stabilizing agent, for example PVPP.
- the filtration process according to the present invention therefore makes it possible to obtain a beer meeting the requirements in terms of clarity and stability and also makes it possible to regenerate the filter aid directly in the filtration tank without having to transport it and without having to modify existing installations.
- the filtration method according to the invention can be implemented with different filtration media.
- the filtration is carried out on candle filters, already widely used in breweries.
- the candle filters usable in the context of the implementation of the method according to the invention comprise a wire wound in turns around a vertical support, the distance between two turns varying between approximately 20 ⁇ m and approximately 70 ⁇ m, preferably between approximately 20 ⁇ m and approximately 45 ⁇ m.
- the wire is made from food grade material, resistant to the reagents used in the filtration process.
- the wire wound in turns has a trapezoidal shape, the long side of the trapezium being directed towards the outside of the candle filter, on the side of the material to be filtered. In this way, the particles contained in the beer and of size smaller than the distance between the turns, pass through the filter, without the risk of clogging in the thickness of the wire and thus obstructing the 35497
- the dimensions of the passage in the thickness of the wire being greater than the distance of passage between two turns.
- the filtration support comprises sieves, preferably horizontal, also called plane filters, with a mesh size varying between approximately 10 ⁇ m and approximately 70 ⁇ m, preferably between approximately 10 ⁇ m and approximately 20 ⁇ m.
- the flat filters are made of a food-grade material, resistant to the solvents and reagents used in filtration.
- Ml 5 type sieve sold by the company South West Screen, Belgium.
- the invention also relates to a new process for the in situ regeneration of filter aids, new in itself and which can be used in particular for the regeneration of the aids of the invention.
- washing the filter medium with a sodium hydroxide solution at a concentration varying between approximately 2% and approximately 5%, at a temperature of at least approximately 80 ° C., for a period varying between approximately 60 minutes and approximately 120 minutes, and carrying out an enzymatic treatment of the filtering medium with an enzymatic composition, at a temperature varying between approximately 40 ° C. and approximately 60 ° C., for a duration varying between approximately 100 minutes and approximately 200 minutes, said enzymatic treatment being carried out after several cycles of filtration.
- the enzymatic composition comprises proteases, agents capable of lysing yeasts, possibly agents of enzymatic catalysis, as defined in the above.

- the filtration supports according to the invention are characterized in that they consist of candles comprising a wire made from food-grade material resistant to the reagents used in the filtration process, wound in turns around a vertical support, the distance between two turns varying between approximately 20 ⁇ m and approximately 70 ⁇ m, preferably between approximately 20 ⁇ m and approximately 45 ⁇ m and have the trapezoidal shape as defined in the above.
- the filtration supports according to the invention are characterized in that they consist of sieves, preferably horizontal, made from food-grade material resistant to the reagents used in the filtration process, d '' a mesh size varying between approximately 10 ⁇ m and approximately 70 ⁇ m, preferably between approximately 10 ⁇ m and approximately 20 ⁇ m.
- the new filtration media according to the invention are particularly well suited for implementing the filtration process of the invention, but their use cannot be limited to this particular process.
- the adjuvant used is Nylon 11, commercially available under the name RILSAN from the company Atochem, France.
- the candle filter used consists of a conical feeding zone, a cylindrical shell with a diameter of 215 mm and a height of 2.05 m.
- Three 32 mm diameter candles, the interior of which communicates with the filtrate collection area, are suspended in the shell.
- the height of the candles is 1.5 m and the distance between their axes is 86 mm, to deposit a cake with a thickness of 25 mm maximum while preserving a distance of 15 mm between the surface of the cake and the wall of the shell.
- the total volume of the filter is 78 1 and the filtration area 0.45 m 2 .
- the spark plug cut-off threshold is 30 ⁇ m and the profile of the trapezoidal wire.
- the installation is first of all sterilized and deaerated before depositing the precoat which is carried out at a flow rate of 20 to 30 hl / hm 2 , and in the same manner as on an industrial filter.
- the injection of the must suspension containing RILSAN is carried out for an average of 7 minutes and a recirculation of 15 minutes allows the entire adjuvant to be deposited.
- the precoat comprises a mixture of PVPP and RILSAN ® commercially available from GAF, USA
- the proportions between these two constituents are the same as for alluvialization, namely 2/1 to 1/4 by weight, so that, after decompression, the composition of the regenerated filter mass is not changed.
- the pre-layer concentration reaches 1.5 to 2 kg m, a value greater than the levels recommended conventionally, but which represents a thickness of cake substantially close to that obtained for traditional adjuvants.
- the choice of filtration rate is conditioned by the pressure build-up as well as by the contact time necessary to obtain a sufficient stabilizing effect. To do this, the PVPP stabilization installations operate at a flow rate close to 10 hl hm 2 .
- a second test is carried out with a Pils type beer obtained by Schwarzing and whose load after centrifugation reaches 300,000 yeasts / ml. It leads, for a total concentration in alluviation of 150 g / hl (100 g hl of adjuvant and 50 g / hl of PVPP) to a pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the filter of 50,000 Nm "2 after 20 hours of filtration and this for a flow of
- the clarity of the beer after filtration meets the relevant standards. It is considerably lower than 0.7 ° EBC, recommended value and is, during tests carried out at low temperature, lower than 0.5 ° EBC. Values of 0.3 ° EBC were regularly measured.

- a washing of the filtering mass carried out in the filtration tool and without defatting with a 2% sodium hydroxide solution at a temperature of 80 ° C. resulted in a reduction in the size of the yeasts by 40% after two hours of treatment.
- An enzymatic treatment makes it possible to remedy this situation, by reducing the size of the yeasts from 25% to 35% after treatment for two to three hours.
- the enzymatic treatment is carried out by washing the filtering mass with an enzyme solution commercially available under the name YLE from the company Amano.
- the enzymatic treatment is carried out at a pH of 5-6 and at a temperature of 50 ° C. after the attack with sodium hydroxide, which implies bringing the pH and temperature to the above values.
