Just Drinks Excellence Awards 2023: Pentair
Pentair is a provider of water and water management solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial use. Category Award Winner for Environmental and Innovation in the 2023 Just Drinks Excellence Awards
Pentair’s, Industrial Solutions business group, has been recognized for its exceptional contributions in the field of beer filtration and CO2 extraction and recovery, earning Environmental and Innovation Category Just Drinks Excellence Awards.
Amidst the challenges posed by CO2 shortages and supply chain issues, Pentair CO2 Solutions, created for breweries and beverage producers, helps by extracting and recovering the by-product CO2 from boilers, jet engines and the fermentation process. This recovered CO2 is food-grade, making it suitable for beverage carbonation and helping to ensure a self-sustained supply of CO2.
Pentair CO2 Recovery Plant
What’s more, by capturing CO2 from their own processes, a known source, customers increase control over their product quality.
In 2022, Pentair supplied its customers with CO2 Recovery Solutions that had the capacity to recover 7.61 million MT of CO2 annually.
Pentair also helps customers deliver high-quality products through Pentair Beer Membrane Filtration (BMF) Systems.
Pentair Beer Membrane Filtration System (BMF)
Within the BMF system, beer passes through several X-Flow hollow fiber membrane elements containing pores that filter out impurities. This membrane system is reusable, reducing filter waste when compared to single-use filters.
In a world where digitization is transforming many industries, Pentair also offers Pentair Q, an Internet of Things (IoT) software platform that collects, processes, and visualizes data from the BMF system and CO2 Solutions. Through the power of real-time data, brewers can make more informed decisions and adjustments to the performance of their filtration process.
