Turkish food processing enterprises have achieved a breakthrough in the production of jujube syrup by using advanced 60㎡ membrane filter presses
A Turkish food processing company has transformed its jujube syrup production by implementing the most advanced 60-square-meter membrane filtration system.
Project Background and Challenges
This company is a major exporter of high-quality jujube products and faces significant challenges in the syrup filtration process. The traditional filtration method is difficult to cope with the high viscosity and 25% solid content of the syrup, resulting in frequent clogging, unstable product quality and excessive production downtime. Throughout the entire filtration process, a temperature of 55°C needs to be precisely maintained, which further increases the complexity of the operation.
Outstanding technical implementation
The custom-designed membrane filter press solution combines advanced functions specifically designed for food-grade applications:
Large-capacity processing system
It processes 5 tons of high-viscosity jujube syrup per hour
The 819L chamber volume is optimized for continuous production
Characteristics of precision engineering
35 polypropylene filter plates (1000×1000mm), maximum durability
250mm high-pressure hydraulic cylinder, ensuring perfect sealing
The feed diameter of DN80 and the filtrate outlet of DN65 achieve the best flow dynamics
The central feeding system adopts invisible current discharge technology
Advanced automation and control
7.5kw hydraulic station, precise pressure control, with a pressure up to 0.8MPa
A 220V 60Hz three-phase power system that meets local requirements
Automatic film extrusion system and 72mm film sheet
Business performance and results
This implementation has delivered transformative results on multiple operational metrics:
Production efficiency
Compared with the previous system, the production capacity has increased by 40%
The filtration cycle time has been shortened by 35%
Quality improvement
Significantly improve the transparency and consistency of the syrup
Enhance color and flavor retention
Economic benefits
Reduce operating costs by 30% through automated processing
Compared with the previous method, product loss has been reduced by 45%
The optimized 7.5kw power system reduces energy consumption
