Product catalog summary
Introduction to Dynamic Crossflow Filtration (DCF)
ANDRITZ SEPARATION introduces the Dynamic Crossflow Filter (DCF) as an advanced solution for wine clarification, particularly effective in recovering tank lees. This technology surpasses traditional methods like vacuum drum filters and filter presses by enhancing yield, reducing costs, and improving working conditions.

Technology Overview
The DCF system utilizes overlapping rotating disks to create a differential speed, generating a crossflow without the need for a pump. This innovative design prevents clogging and enhances cleaning efficiency through turbulent flow, which is both parallel and perpendicular to the membrane surface.

Benefits of DCF
  • Achieves a high yield of 96-98% of processed wine.
  • Produces a high solids concentration of 80-90% by volume.
  • Ensures top-quality filtered wine suitable for direct bottling without loss of alcohol, CO2, flavor, or taste.
  • Reduces energy consumption and eliminates the need for diatomic earth or other filter aids.
  • Prevents further fermentation with sterile permeate.

Technical Specifications
The DCF is available in three models (DCF 312/8, DCF 312/16, DCF 312/32) with varying membrane surfaces and throughput capacities. The system is compact, space-saving, and operates efficiently at room temperature or under cooled conditions to prevent fermentation.

Applications
  • Clarification of vintage, turbid, and fined wines.
  • Processing of traditional crossflow retentate and decanter sludge.

Design and Features
  • Plug-and-play skid with minimal process connections.
  • Fully automatic cleaning-in-place (CIP) system.
  • Touch panel with graphic process visualization.
  • Optional features include double strainers and remote diagnosis tools.

Global Reach and Industry Integration
ANDRITZ SEPARATION, with its extensive global presence, integrates various well-known companies in the food industry, offering comprehensive solutions for mechanical solid/liquid separation and thermal treatment technologies.
