Sugar & Sweetners

Tereos TTD, Czech

The Amafilter® team is thrilled to be shipping four Cricketfilter® 1800WS automated systems to Tereos TTD in Czech, one of Europe’s leading producers of beet sugar.  Beet sugar production involves several crucial stages to deliver high-quality products. One of these stages is the filtration process, which is applied after obtaining thin juice from sugar beets. Thin juice contains an enormous amount of impurities, including pigments, proteins, and organic acids. Thus, filtration comes as a prerequisite procedure before the next stage of sugar processing, which involves second carbonation and sulphuration. The filtration process removes unwanted impurities and dirt from thin juice, ensuring the production of high purity sugar.

With regular servicing and at times the replacement of the pressure filter leaves, the filter systems continue to operate efficiently, delivering a high product quality with low maintenance interventions, improving the total cost of ownership.

We were delighted to learn that since the installation of our horizontal pressure filter leaves system, Villapana has more than doubled its production capacity of grapeseed oil, having produced 450 tonnes more grapeseed oil in the last six months than it had for the same period the prior year.  Grapeseed oil has grown in popularity as it is known to provide various health benefits, including helping to maintain healthy cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of heart disease.  We are pleased to be contributing to making the world safer, healthier and more productive®.
