Pharmaceuticals - Air Filtration
These product recovery systems, which employ fabric and cartridge filters, exhaust various types of dryers, evaporators, crystallizers, ovens, and many other processes in order to collect the product from the exhaust system. The collector systems become an integral part of the manufacturing process. Below is a partial list of areas in which Menardi has supplied filtration technology:
- Combustion systems
- Dryer units
- Transfer systems
- Bin vents
- Nuisance vents
Common process problems:
- Opacity
- High differential pressure
- Premature bag failure
- Insufficient filter area
- Chemical attack
- Temperature excursions
Menardi products/services used to help eliminate these problems:
Example Application
This industry employs nuisance and product recovery dust collection systems. Product recovery systems require high efficiency media to ensure against production losses. Nuisance dust collectors are often in areas that are difficult to access and present sanitary concerns. Menardi supplies pharmaceutical grade filters and accessories that prevent product loss due to contamination and personnel exposure. High efficiency Mikrotex® PTFE membrane laminates and engineered fabric finishes provide solutions to recovery and cleaning problems. Mikro-Pleat™ pleated filters, which provide increased filter area, are also available in order to lower pressure losses associated with production increases. FDA approved sonic horns are available to assist in powder transfer without the negative effects of shakers and vibrators.
