The rotary pressure filter (RPF) with fully automatic cleaning-in-place (CIP) technology

The BHS rotary pressure filter (RPF) is one of the most popular filter systems for solid-liquid separation worldwide. It is a remarkable system that is far superior to any others in terms of the versatility, flexibility and performance it offers. The BHS rotary pressure filter (RPF) meets the high standards of the pharmaceutical and food industries thanks to the fully automatic cleaning-in-place (CIP) system it employs. The BHS rotary pressure filter’s CIP system facilitates an effective, validated decontamination process that is adapted to different process scenarios. Contaminated surfaces can be cleaned in a reliable and reproducible manner in less time with fewer staff-related costs.

New filtration process for the efficient reclamation of glycol

New filtration process for the efficient reclamation of glycol

Efficient glycol recycling is playing an increasingly important role in operating gas pipelines in an environmentally friendly manner. BHS-Sonthofen has developed a new process which recycles significantly more glycol than the processes used previously. As part of the mega gas plant project in Saudi Arabia, BHS was commissioned to design and supply three filter units. The large-scale project was carried out in six phases, from process optimization through to system transport. The entire project is set to be completed by the end of 2019.
