PURIFICATION OF CHEMICALS SUBSTANCES
To ensure proper quality, an important aspect of which is the absence of odor and optical purity, there is a need to optimize cleaning processes. These processes, taking into account industrial realities, have become, without exaggeration, a problematic bottleneck, and sometimes have more complexities and costs than the actual production of the final product.
There are cases when the purchased raw materials do not meet the expected standards, or when manufacturers want to improve the quality, and therefore the cost of the chemical product itself.
Some compounds, after removal of color, odor and unwanted impurities, can be sold at higher prices, allowing them to be used in a wider range of applications.
For example, thanks to the purification technology of the Novasvit company, it is possible to remove dioxins from fish oil and organic compounds from sulfuric acid, purify glycerin and amino acids, and decolorize used solvents.
Purification of pharmaceutical substances
The pharmaceutical manufacturing process requires absolute precision and purity to ensure the highest quality end products. Our technology is an important tool for the intermediate purification of pharmaceutical substances from unwanted by-products (odorous compounds, dyes, organic pollutants), including proteins, and even catalyst residues.
For each client, for each type of pharmaceutical raw material, we develop a separate production scheme of purification through testing and laboratory research, adapting our own production processes to the specific requirements of the client.
Pharmaceutical products that may be cleared may include:
- Active pharmaceutical ingredients
- Antibiotics
- Painkillers
- Steroids
- Vitamins
- Amino acids including: methionine, lysine, monosodium glutamate (MSG), phenylalanine, aspartic acid, glycine
- Contrast fluids
- enzymes
- Folic acid
Purification of liquids in the food industry
Our technology allows you to solve the problems of cleaning, whitening, improving the taste and aroma characteristics of liquids in the food industry, for example, removing patulin, surfactants, aldehydes, etc.
It should be noted that decolorization is a crucial step in various areas of application in the food and beverage industry, which is used:
- for the final purification of starch-based sweeteners
- discoloration of maple and other syrups
- to promote efficient crystallization of white sugar with minimal losses in the transition of sugar to molasses
- as part of the process of creating a neutral base for converting fruit juice into a designed beverage or creating juice for canning or blending as an additional natural source of sugar.
Sweeteners
Sugar and other sweeteners, such as dextrose and corn syrups, contain organic compounds that can impair the taste, texture, and appearance of the finished food product. Sweeteners come in many different origins, and each specific type has its own purification requirements. It is often necessary to remove components of color, taste and smell, as well as contaminants. Cane sugar, for example, becomes white granulated sugar only after removing large colored particles such as melanoidins and caramels.
Nutritional supplements
Hydrolyzed vegetable proteins and monosodium glutamate are widely used flavor enhancers. Monosodium glutamate is produced by fermentation of glucose, molasses, corn and wheat gluten. Hydrolyzed vegetable proteins are usually made from acid-hydrolyzed soybeans. These compounds can have a strong taste and a dark color. Novasvit company technology brightens and improves the taste of these food additives.
Alcoholic drinks
Our company has many years of experience in the purification of alcoholic beverages, which often after distillation can have an unattractive color, smell or taste. The technology used works at an intermediate stage of purification, namely -- to remove these undesirable components (aldehydes, amino acids and safflower oils).
We start our work by studying all the features of production, adapting to the concrete conditions of the customer, taking into account all the specifics. For example, fatty acids, flavors and colors can be removed separately, and furfural or phthalates can also be removed.
Purification of liquids in the chemical industry
Novasvit has developed a decolorization technology that removes a wide range of impurities and compounds that affect the color of a number of liquid chemicals, including:
- Adipic acid
- Fumaric acid
- Maleic acid
- Melamine
- Methyl fatty esters
- Methyl isobutyl ketone
- Niacin, nicotinic acid
- Perchlorethylene
- Plasticizers
- Shellac
- Stearin
- Synthetic oils
- Tannic acid
Our technology can remove proteins and other organic impurities from folic acid and organic intermediates in the production of synthetic niacin. It can also be used to purify (decolorize and remove impurities) organic acids, in particular:
- formic acid
- acetic acid
- propionic acid
- succinic acid
- oxalic acid
- lactic acid
- malic acid
- benzoic acid
Purification of amino acids
Amino acids are used, in particular, as feed additives for animals (lysine, methionine, threonine), flavor enhancers (sodium glutamate, serine, aspartic acid) and as ingredients in medical products. Glutamic acid, lysine and methionine are produced in the largest quantities by weight in the world.
The developed technology provides the following cleaning parameters:
- Improve the crystallization process by removing impurities
- Increasing reaction efficiency, reducing product losses
- Color removal
- Removal of toxic components before the fermentation process
- Improvement of the fermentation process
- Improvement of color fastness
The Novasvit company works ahead of the curve. Before starting work, we conduct pilot studies in the laboratory in order to adapt as much as possible to the specific conditions of our customers and find an effective solution as soon as possible.
With the best experts at our disposal, we are constantly innovating. Our services are best-in-class, keeping customers with us for life. Our core product is smart technology that works and makes money for our customers.
