Innovation Award for FILTRODISCTM BIO SD
During ACHEMA 2012, the four journals PROCESS, PROCESS worldwide, PharmaTEC and LABORPRAXIS honored the most innovative products of the show with the 2012 ACHEMA Innovation award.
The award committee announced FILTRODISC™ BIO SD as a shortlist (top 3) innovation in the category biotechnology. FILTROX is a proud awardee and will continue to invest in the development of new products for the bio-pharmaceutical industries.
FILTRODISC™ BIO SD comprises of a filtration system which removes particles (e.g. cells, bacteria, yeast) and other turbid matter (e.g. activated carbon) from process liquids like fermentation broths. This system is completely disposable; all material that comes in contact with the product is meant for single use and can be disposed of after the filtration is completed. This “disposability” or “single use” reduces cross contamination risks, eliminates cleaning validation efforts and reduces the downtime during module changes, making this method the ideal choice for contract manufacturers (CMO) and other operations with a high frequency of product change.
FILTRODISC™ BIO SD is the first depth filter using the advantages of the alluvium technology in a disposable format.
