The beverage industry is traditionally an area with particular high demands on hygiene and its related technologies. Impeccable hygiene is needed to maintain the high quality standards and shelf life of the end product, whether it is beer, lemonade, mineral/drinking water, fruit juice or wine and sparkling wine.

For us, process optimisation isn't just a catchword, it’s part of our daily life: from the unpacker, through bottle washer, filler, CIP and syrup room, ProMinent technologies ensure the highest level of efficiency, quality, and operational and product safety.
The interior of a transport conveyor system tends towards bacterial proliferation and the formation of biofilm and therefore contributes to potential hazardous sources of product contamination. Therefore the conveyor must be regularly cleaned in established cycles.
The bottle transportation system provides a vital link between the individual machines. Faults during bottle transportation can lead to the whole filling line coming to a standstill. The lubrication of conveyor chains is therefore extremely important.
Bottle rinsing machines are continually being developed and improved by manufacturers, particularly with respect to cleaning quality and cost efficiency. By using tried and tested ProMinent designs, these machines can be optimized even more.
For disinfecting bottles or cans in the rinser, both chlorine dioxide and ozone are suitable agents. Both methods have their specific advantages.
Fillers have to comply with particularly strict hygienic requirements. This means equipment like the CIP filler, the device for cleaning the exterior of the filler, the filler flushing device or the safety shower (for broken fragments) are used as required. Chlorine Dioxide is ideal for disinfecting and sterilizing in the filling area.
More and more companies in the food industry store their chemical supplies centrally. Various chemicals are stored in tanks in a separate room from the production area. This type of storage has many advantages
New metering heads comply with the most stringent hygienic requirements. Dependent on required capacity range motor- or solenoid-driven metering pumps will be employed. The proven Sigma motorised metering pumps and delta® diaphragm metering pumps with regulated solenoid drive form the basis of the pumps.
By the use of dosing systems the dosing task becomes increasingly easier. Pre-mounted complete solutions made by ProMinent are immediately available and ready for the use in important applications of dosage. Sensor technology, controllers and metering pumps form a unit with the necessary tanks and are ready for operation without installation work.
We describe the use of measuring and control technologies for fluid dosing as “intelligent dosing”. Using the right measuring and control technology can help to substantially optimize metering of fluid chemicals.
Capacity range 5 to -90 g/h Range of universal compact ozone plants. Air or oxygen is used as the operating gas.
Capacity range 80 – 720 g/h (larger plants on request) A range of compact ozone plants with integrated gas conditioning application. Bono Zon® plants work using positive suction pressure and are therefore particularly reliable.
15 to 10 000 g/h of chlorine dioxide, especially for the treatment of large water quantities in continuous operation.
With ProMinent Dulcodes UV Plants, reliable and chemical-free water treatment for disinfection purposes and degradation of unwanted components are possible. Easy installation, low maintenance and a variety of types, result in most economical projects for multiple applications.
Dulcoclean® UF systems are suitable for removing high turbidity peaks, particles and microbiological impurities (bacteria, viruses, parasites). Even with temporary or microbiological contamination after heavy precipitation the systems provide a constant filtrate quality – free of turbidity and pathogens.
Reverse Osmosis is the reversal of the natural osmosis process. This process is used to desalinate aqueous solutions. Using suitable high-performance membranes it is possible today to remove more than 99% of all salts from an aquaeous solution.
Capacity range 70 - 245 g/hInfinitely variable adjustment of required ozone quantity between 3 and 100 % of rated output, ozone output shown in g/h.
Nominal capacity 500 litres to 25 m³ Standardized and customer-specific storage tanks and drip pans of polyethylene, on demand, with accessories e.g. filling devices, heatings for the storage medium, devices for optical and electronic level monitoring, air scrubbers etc.
