20230159882 · 2023-05-25 · ·

A filtration system for downstream processing of a suspension containing a labile solid material in a liquid medium, wherein dissolved gas in liquid environment is controlled to ensure optimal process conditions. The dissolved gas can be controlled by a gas-liquid interface by bubbling; a liquid-liquid interphase transfer process using a gas vector substance; a liquid-solid interphase transfer process using a gas permeable solid or a reaction evolving oxygen or other gas/gases. The retained solid material is removed in batch operations, continuous operations or mixed-type operations. The process can also include further filtration, heat-treatment, and removal of at least a part of the liquid. The filtration system could also process a concentrated suspension which is devoid of the free liquid, then heat-treated and the liquid produced by the treatment removed by further filtration. The solid material can be a biomass.
