BECOPAD
Depth filter plates without mineral aggregates, for the food and wine industry. BECOPAD has developed a new technology for depth filtration without mineral aggregates, ranging from coarse filtration to filtration for substantial reduction of the microbial content of the food liquid. Using “bepure ®” technology, high purity cellulose fibers are interwoven to form a unique and compact structure, which does not require the addition of mineral compounds to reduce porosity and thus achieve greater microorganism retention efficiency.
BECOPAD plates are distinguished by high purity; the content of ions and substances that can alter the sensory profile of the food is significantly lower than in conventional plates. The type of filtration to be carried out depending on the cleanliness and/or percentage of microorganism retention can be chosen from the wide range of BECOPAD plates available.

CHARACTERISTICS
BECOPAD is a new technology for depth filtration without mineral aggregates, ranging from coarse filtration to filtration for substantial reduction of the microbial content of the food liquid.
BEGEROW has developed this innovation with its own research team. Using “bepure®” technology, high purity cellulose fibers are interwoven to form a single, compact structure, which does not require the addition of inorganic components to reduce porosity and thus achieve greater microorganism retention efficiency. BECOPAD plates are distinguished by high purity; the content of ions and substances that can alter the sensory profile of the food is significantly lower than in conventional plates.
By using BECOPAD plates, the volume of wash water is reduced by 50%, filter cycles are lengthened by up to 20%, drip losses are reduced by up to 99% and color losses due to adsorption are minimized. They are manufactured without mineral additives, which eliminates the contribution of soluble ions (Fe and Al) to the wine and makes it a biodegradable product.
APPLICATION
BECOPAD technology can be used for the filtration of any liquid food, from coarse filtration to filtration for the purpose of substantial reduction of microbial content.
- BECOPAD 115C: Filtration with a high degree of retention of microorganisms. This depth filter media is ideally placed as membrane protection.
