“…Surgical meshes and sutures require non-reactivity, whereas wound-healing applications require piezoelectricity [ 21 ]. Hence, this material is considered suitable for various biomedical applications such as tissue engineering [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ], physiological signal detection [ 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ], and antimicrobial and antifouling material development [ 22 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]. However, it is difficult to produce coatings for biomedical applications using PVDF because it does not form smooth films and exhibits issues in adhesion with other substrates.…”

“…Non-reactivity is necessary for the fabrication of surgical meshes and sutures, yet piezoelectricity is essential for wound-healing applications. As a result, this material is regarded as being appropriate for many biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering [24][25][26][27][28][29], detection of physiological signals [58][59][60][61][62], and the production of antibacterial and antifouling materials [63][64][65][66][67][68]. PVDF does not generate smoother films and problems of being adhesive with other substrates, which makes it challenging to employ in the production of coatings for use in the biomedical industry.…”

“…Leipert and Nirschl [92] showed that polymer filter cloth showed no differences in cleanability. Since polymers basically have similar material features and thus [99], [62], [45], [104], [73], [173], [72], [87] Microorganism [ 99], [112], [41], [116], [173], [4], [36], [17] Lipids/wax [59], [48], [29], [79], [10], [181], [99], [46], [182], [127], [160], [117], [34], [77], [115], [173], [81] [99], [41], [157], [40], [173], [36] Organic/ inorganic (Large) solid components [33], [99], [173], [36] Note: + = good, 0 = neutral, -= bad interface properties, the cleaning dependency between different materials is negligible. However, the cloth material requires careful considerations regarding chemical and physical resistivity and sensitivity.…”

The Challenge of Cleaning Woven Filter Cloth in the Beverage Industry—Wash Jets as an Appropriate Solution

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Beverage production requires many different and complex unit operations. One crucial procedural step is filtration. Typical filters are filter presses, candle filters, membrane filters, belt filters, and drum filters, which require considerable hygienic precaution and the application of appropriate cleaning concepts. In the last decades, the hygienic design has become a central design feature of equipment in the beverage and food industries. Today, also correspondent concepts regarding filter cloth increasingly come to the fore. However, filter cloth cleaning is rapidly facing limitations. Complex filter geometries originating from different gauzes and sensitive polymeric materials hinder efficient cleaning. Additionally, extensive biological residues adhering to the filter surface increase the challenge of cleaning. The goal of this paper is to outline the cleaning of woven filter cloths systematically with a particular focus on beverages and correspondent biophysical interactions between filter and residue. Based on these elemental cleaning limits of filter cloths, this paper focuses mainly on jet cleaning as one of the most appropriate cleaning methods. The flow-mechanical properties are discussed in detail since these are precisely the parameters that, on the one hand, describe the understanding of the cleaning process and, on the other hand, show how a wash jet can be adjusted precisely. In contrast to conventional cleaning techniques, such wash jets are expeditious to adapt and offer the best prerequisites to enable demandoriented and optimized cleaning concepts. The latest research and approaches are enhancing jet efficiency and highlight their potentials for future process strategies.
