How to Use

Detar Flow is particularly stable and can be used in concentrations varying from 1% to 3% and at temperatures of above 80°C, depending on the difficulty of the cleaning operation required.

In crossflow systems the characteristics of the membranes themselves impose the operational limits of regeneration activities. This means that the concentration, pH and temperature at which Detar Flow is used must respect the limits set by the membrane manufacturer.

For each specific crossflow system using Pall membranes, please ask for the detailed instructions for use from our Customer Support Service; for other crossflow systems (micro, ultra, nano and RO), the Perdomini-IOC Customer Support Service can provide personalized cleaning procedures.

Technical Details & Test Data

Optimized for Cross-flow Membranes

In no other place do such large amounts of organic contamination accumulate than on the retentate side of cross-flow membranes. In particular during the final stage in batch production, the separated and concentrated organic components build up in layers that are especially stubborn and hard to remove.

When one process follows another without adequate cleaning in between, the result is the progressive loss of permeability in the membranes, with the further result that the quality of the filtration and the length of time it takes to complete processes are both severely affected. Detar Flow has been specially formulated for these absolutely critical operations, especially in systems such as OenoFlow, where systematic use of Detar Flow has been shown to contribute significantly to the stabilization and long-term maintenance of the system’s overall performance levels.

Compatibility

When used as directed, Detar Flow is highly compatible with metals (especially steel) and also with a very wide range of polymeric and nonpolymeric filtration membranes.
