Filtration Technology


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.

Catalyst Type

  • Raney Nickel
  • Nickel catalyst
  • Palladium catalyst
  • Rhodium catalyst
  • Copper catalyst
  • Platinum catalyst - etc.

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.
