Biochemistry
Biochemistry: concentration, separation, and purification of organic molecules
FE supports biochemical manufacturers in the treatment of complex organic solutions by offering thermal technologies suitable for the concentration, distillation, and crystallization of sensitive compounds.
Typical applications
- Concentration of organic acids (citric acid, lactic acid, etc.)
- Amino acid concentration
- Solvent distillation to separate solvents from organic compounds
- Purification of bio-based molecules
Thermal technologies adapted to biochemistry
Our solutions enable the handling of sensitive products while ensuring:
- Preservation of product properties
- Effective separation of solvents
- A reduction in the volumes to be processed
- Valorization of co-products
Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR): energy efficiency
All our technologies can be integrated with MVR, enabling:
- Reduced energy consumption (COPs up to 50)
- Better thermal control
- A reduction in CO₂ emissions (no fossil fuel consumption)
- Adaptation to electrified processes
Nos solutions permettent la manipulation de produits sensibles tout en garantissant :
- Preservation of product properties
- Effective separation of solvents
- A reduction in the volumes to be processed
- Valorization of co-products
Expertise in custom design
FE designs turnkey units, incorporating:
- Vacuum evaporation for heat-sensitive products
- MVR evaporation to reduce the carbon footprint.
- Fractional distillation for solvent separation
- Gentle crystallization for organic molecules
