Yeast suspension

The results of microfiltration studies using inorganic TiO2/Al2O3 membranes for solutions containing yeast are reported. The aim of the research was experimental as well as mathematical analysis of the permeate flux dependence on time for cross-flow filtration combined with backflushing using permea

Gas sparging and back-flushing treatments were compared as a means to tackle the problem of fouling in yeast microfiltration. Based on the feed and membrane characteristics, it was shown that either of these techniques could be superior to the other in order to overcome the problem. At more concentr
