A Leading Specialty Oils and Fats
Singapore
Powered by our GreenMem® Organic Solvent Nanofiltration (OSN) membrane, our DE(SOLV)® system test with a leading vegetable oil producer was successfully ran. The objective of the pilot was to demonstrate RBD palm olein/acetone separation efficiency, evaluate the purity of recovered acetone, and analyze the economic viability of the pressure-driven process. Results demonstrated outstanding membrane performance, with the technology showing substantial environmental and economic benefits for industrial-scale application. This process demonstrates that DE(SOLV)®, in a hybrid process, produces quality RBD palm olein with significantly reduced energy demand.
Tests showed that GreenMem® membranes achieved an average oil rejection rate of more than 99%. Compared to the market-leading product under identical conditions, GreenMem® membranes showed around 15% higher oil rejection and sixfold better permeance.
The membrane technology serves a wide range of industries, including vegetable oil refining and fractionation, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, performance materials, specialty chemicals, and more, and they represent a groundbreaking solution to the highly energy-intensive chemical separation processes used in various industries. Featuring pores smaller than 1 nanometer wide, our membranes are designed to withstand harsh chemical conditions, ensuring superior durability and reliability. This exceptional performance offers a cleaner and more sustainable alternative to traditional methods like distillation and evaporation that are known for their excessive energy requirements. By significantly reducing the need for heat and lowering overall energy input, SepPure membranes lead to substantial savings in energy consumption and operational costs.
