Gelatin Production
Benefits and Advantages
- UF provides significant energy savings versus evaporation
- UF provides improved bloom strength (gelatin quality) by permeating minerals out of the gelatin
- NF recovers hydrolyzed gelatin, increasing yield
- Reduced mineral load to the ion exchange systems
- RO of UF permeate generates a high quality water for reuse in the plant as process, cleaning, boiler feed water.
- MF can be used to replace the DE press filters
- MF for treatment of waste streams

Microfiltration
Conventional Microfiltration Process
Tami Isoflux® Ceramic Membrane
Tami Isoflux® Microfiltration
Features
- Produces constant flux along length of element
- Achieved by decreasing membrane thickness or support layer thickness from inlet to outlet
- This leads to better separation homogeneity
- Improved performance
- Fouling similar along length of element
- Allows for separations that otherwise would not be possible
