Stainless Steel Sintered Metal Filters – Applications of Filtration in the Pharmaceutical Industry

Filtration through sintered metal filters is used in pharmaceutical manufacturing to remove unwanted material from the formulated bulk solution. The primary purpose of filtration is to create a sterile final product.

 

Different microns (0.2-100um) can match different degrees of filtration requirements. HENGKO sintered metal filters can be easily applied to a large variety of pharmaceutical needs, and because of this flexibility, it is widely used within the industry.

 

Compared to surface filtration, depth filtration also retains particulate matter farther down from the surface. It is primarily used for clarification of solutions. Among the most common filters used in in-depth filtration is sintered filters. Recent developments in sintered metal filters: In the past, the industry depended heavily on the use of electrostatic precipitators, cyclones, and disposable filters. But recently, these are being replaced by metal sintered filters. These filters can be cleaned in situ, and as the filter cake (the layer of filtered material at the membrane) forms, the screen becomes more efficient.
