Vinegar Decolorization Membrane Filtration Equipment

Expert in Vinegar Decolorization Membrane Separation Equipment, Redefining Quality Standards in the Brewing Industry

As consumer demands for food quality and safety become increasingly stringent, vinegar, as a representative traditional condiment, now places clarity of color and purity of flavor at the core of competitive metrics. However, traditional methods such as activated carbon adsorption and chemical decolorization suffer from low efficiency, loss of flavor compounds, and high risks of secondary pollution, severely hindering product upgrades for enterprises. Xīhé Fluid Technology, with its independently developed "Vinegar Decolorization Membrane Separation Equipment," offers brewing companies a one-stop solution for efficient decolorization, flavor preservation, and green production, helping clients overcome technical bottlenecks and capture the high-end market!

I. Industry Pain Points: Why Traditional Decolorization Processes Must Be Phased Out?
Vinegar decolorization is a critical step affecting product appearance and quality, yet traditional technologies present three major drawbacks:
- Low efficiency of activated carbon adsorption: Requires repeated filtration, extended decolorization cycles, and carries a high risk of carbon residue;
- Chemical methods compromise flavor: Oxidizing agents or resin treatments often lead to loss of flavor components such as esters and amino acids;
- High environmental costs: Disposal of spent carbon and wastewater is challenging, contradicting green production trends.

Xīhé Fluid's membrane separation technology, based on the principle of physical sieving, revolutionizes traditional processes with three key features: "precise retention, ambient temperature operation, and zero chemical additives," making it the ultimate choice for enhancing quality and efficiency in the vinegar industry!

II. Advantages of Xīhé Fluid Membrane Technology: How Does It Achieve a Decolorization Revolution?
1. High-Precision Decolorization, Achieving Crystal-Clear Color in One Step
- Combined ultrafiltration/nanofiltration: Graded retention of pigment molecules (molecular weight 200-1000Da), colloids, and macromolecular impurities, achieving a decolorization rate ≥95% and light transmittance (660nm) increased to over 98%;
- Zero flavor loss: Ambient temperature physical separation preserves flavor compounds such as acetic acid, amino acids, and reducing sugars intact, improving sensory scores by 30%;
- Anti-fouling design: Acid-resistant ceramic membranes (pH 2-12 tolerance) paired with pulse backwash technology ensure flux recovery ≥90% and a lifespan of up to 5 years.

2. Energy Savings and Cost Reduction, Cutting Overall Costs by 50%
- No activated carbon required: Eliminates the need for carbon procurement, filtration, and waste disposal, saving over ¥200,000 annually;
- Energy consumption reduced by 60%: Ambient temperature operation eliminates the need for steam heating, with energy consumption ≤5 kW·h per ton of vinegar processed;
- Wastewater reduced by 80%: Membrane concentrate can be recycled into the fermentation process, enabling resource circularity.

III. Application Scenarios: How Xīhé Fluid Equipment Empowers Brewing Upgrades
1. Deep Decolorization of Aged Vinegar/Aromatic Vinegar
- Pain point: Traditional processes cause turbidity and flavor imbalance;
- Solution: Ultrafiltration removes suspended solids → Nanofiltration retains pigments, increasing light transmittance from 80% to 98% and amino acid retention ≥97%.

2. Clarification and Preservation of Fruit Vinegar
- Pain point: Pectin and pigment residues affect shelf life and appearance;
- Solution: Simultaneous decolorization and sterilization via membrane separation extend shelf life to 18 months, with turbidity ≤0.5 NTU.

3. Development of High-End Vinegar-Based Condiments
- Pain point: Impurities interfere with flavor blending and product stability;
- Solution: Purified vinegar post-membrane refinement is ideal for developing innovative products like honey vinegar and spiced vinegar.

IV. Xīhé Fluid vs. Traditional Processes: Data Demonstrates the Technological Gap
| Comparison Item | Xīhé Membrane Process | Traditional Activated Carbon Process |
| Decolorization Efficiency | ≥95% (single pass) | 70-80% (requires multiple treatments) |
| Flavor Retention Rate | ≥98% | ≤85% |
| Cost per Ton of Vinegar | ¥15-20 | ¥40-50 |
| Environmental Impact | Zero carbon residue, 80% wastewater reduction | Difficult spent carbon disposal, high pollution risk |
