SANOVO UF plants

The SANOVO Ultra Filtration System is designed to handle concentrations of albumen prior to drying. The dryness will be increased from 10-12 % to as much as 20-24 %  on albumen, thereby reducing e the load on the dryer by half compared to directly feeding albumen into the dryer. The total energy consumption on the dryer is reduced significantly and/or the total plant capacity increased.

To ensure that the albumen is handled as gently as possible, great care has been taken in deciding on the size of the piping, the spiral element, and choice of pump. Salts, sugars, organic acids and small peptides are allowed to flow, while proteins, fats and polysaccharides are not. The UF plant consists of two UF loops with a circulation of albumen at a high flow rate.
