INVENTA has successfully developed an innovative
filtration technology, which allows filtration
temperatures of up to 300 °C. Furthermore, no
pre-coating of the filter elements is required. The
Inventa Hot Filtration Technology can be applied to
batch or continuous plant operation and can be operated
fully automatic without manual operator intervention.

Catalyst Recovery and Recycling
Chemical processes often require heterogeneous
catalysts. The catalyst recovery has traditionally
been done by plate and frame or pressure leaf
filters. Inventa's filtration technology utilizes
sintered metal filter elements and provides far
more superior performance. |
Inventa's
sintered metal filtration technology has been
successfully applied for the removal and recycling of
precious metal catalysts and other catalyst types in the
pharmaceutical, specialty chemical and food industry.

The
Inventa catalyst separation technology allows for an
automatic recycling of catalyst into the reactor or an
automatic discharge into a spent drum for re-processing.
A special heel filter will allow for dry catalyst
discharge.
Filter elements are easily freed of catalyst cake by
using gas or liquid discharge methods and there are no
requirements for scrubbing, scraping or rotating filter
elements. Contaminants may also be removed with water,
steam, nitrogen, solvents, alkaline or acidic washing or
ultrasonic.
As the sintered metal filter does not require any
pre-coating or filter aid, the catalyst is less
contaminated and facilitates recycling or metal recovery
from spent catalyst.
