Vinasse treatment was performed using membrane separation technologies. The combined use of ultrafiltration and nanofiltration allowed to reach levels of above 99% discoloration. Waste streams from these processes with high content of colored compounds were subjected to an adsorption - ultrafiltration hybrid process reaching 90% of discoloration.
New and innovative aspects
Use of membrane separation processes for decolorization of vinasse by clean technologies and treatment of the final residue by an adsorption-ultrafiltration hybrid process. Yields above 95%.
Main advantages of its use
Simplicity of installation and operation of the plant. Continuous process with low operating costs. Increased yields discoloration. Getting colorless effluent that allow the direct discharge.
Applications
It is aimed at companies in the sugar sector, distilleries and wastewater treatment plants for the treatment of
effluents with high content of melanoidins.
