A method for preparing a filtered beverage includes filtering a raw beverage using a cross-flow ultrafiltration device to produce a solids fraction and a liquid fraction; heating the solids fraction to a temperature of 60° C. or greater to produce a pasteurized solids fraction; microfiltering the liquid fraction through a microfilter having a size cut-off of 1 μm or smaller to produce a microfiltered liquid fraction; and combining the pasteurized solids fraction and the microfiltered liquid fraction to result in the filtered beverage.

A water purifier and a filter for the water purifier are provided. The water purifier includes a raw water flow path formed to bring in raw water from the outside, a purified water flow path connected to the raw water flow path for the raw water to flow in a first direction, a filter located in the purified water flow path to filter the raw water, a bypass flow path branched from the purified water flow path for the raw water to bypass the filter and connected to the purified water flow path on a downstream side of the filter in the first direction, a washing flow path branched from the bypass flow path and connected to the purified water flow path on a downstream side of the filter in the first direction, and a drain flow path connected to the filter to guide the raw water flowing into the filter to a second direction. The filter includes a raw water inlet through which raw water flowing in the first direction is introduced, a purified water outlet through which purified water filtered is released, and a drain outlet through which wash water having washed the filter is discharged.

A process for purifying washing waters of a production plant of the cosmetics sector includes subjecting the washing waters to an ultrafiltration treatment that produces an ultrafiltration concentrate and ultrafiltration water, and subjecting ultrafiltration water to a biological treatment with separation of sludges to be disposed of or further treated and treated water to be disposed of or to undergo subsequent treatments.

The embodiments disclose a method including harvesting fresh bamboo leaves from an organic certified bamboo forest, using hot air to sterilize and dry bamboo leaves, shredding and packing the dry bamboo leaves, mixing sterilized water steam and the shredded dry bamboo leaves for extracting the dry bamboo leaves essence into a bamboo leaf condensate, filtering the bamboo leaf condensate through sterile filters and devices, mixing in purified water and additives to the filtered bamboo leaf condensate for creating bamboo leaf extract based products for human consumption and use, and packaging the bamboo leaf extract based products including bottled beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and foods, food additives and dietary supplements.

Described herein are methods for purifying protein, and more particularly to methods for purifying protein that minimize the development of undesirable odors and flavors in the purified protein and increase protein yield.

Production of orange juice is described. Raw orange juice is ultrafiltrated in an ultrafilter, thereby obtaining a retentate and a permeate. Only the retentate is pasteurized in a pasteurizer. The pasteurized retentate and the permeate is mixed in a mixing unit. A minimization of enzymes and microorganisms is thereby obtained in the orange juice.

A nanobiocatalytic membrane for a filtration system is provided which includes a filtration membrane and a plurality of nanobiocatalyst nanoparticles associated with the membrane, each of the nanobiocatalyst nanoparticles including a core, a coating at least partially surrounding the core, and a plurality of nanobiocatalysts coupled to the coating. Each of the plurality of nanobiocatalysts includes an antibacterial nanoparticle comprising bismuth, and a quorum quenching agent coupled to the antibacterial nanoparticle. A nanobiocatalyst nanoparticle for use with a water purification system is also provided. A method of forming a nanobiocatalytic membrane for a filtration system and a method of using a nanobiocatalytic membrane in a filtration system are also provided.

The present invention relates in general to the field of water kiosks, and more specifically, to an emergency water filtration kiosk and method of delivering clean and safe water using the emergency water filtration kiosk. One aspect of the emergency water filtration kiosk and method of use may include a four-stage water filtration system to better purify, clean, and improve the taste of water. The emergency water filtration kiosk and method of use may further include a turn-key variable pump system that is configured to supply water to the emergency water filtration kiosk via three alternative power sources. The purpose of the invention is to provide a self-contained and rapidly deployable emergency response water filtration kiosk and method of use that delivers clean and safe drinking water to people in need after a natural disaster. An additional purpose of the invention is to provide an emergency water filtration kiosk and method of use that offers a wide variety of on-board integrated pumping solutions to supply water to the filtration kiosk under any power condition.
