Ammonia Filtration Key to
Efficient Antibiotics Production Delivering custom quality
quickly
Amazon Filters has installed a combination
SupaPore FPW / SupaPore VPBA filtration
system at a leading antibiotics manufacturer’s
fermentation plant enabling them to reduce
production downtime resulting in significant
cost savings. Croft Filters are a leading UK manufacturer
of over 32 years who specialises in supplying
customised filtration solutions. The Company
supplies to a range of industry sectors
that including: Chemical, Oil, Gas, Energy,
Pharmaceutical, amongst others worldwide.
Efficient antibiotic production requires high
quality ammonia being used to adjust the
pH of the fermentation process. However,
the antibiotics manufacturer was receiving
batches of ammonia of varying quality which
required sterile filtering before use. Despite
this precaution, the manufacturer was having
to replace blocked final membrane filters on a
daily basis resulting in unacceptable levels of
production downtime and the high costs of
replacement filters. Croft can manufacture filtration solutions in
any shape or design including: basket strainers,
duplex filters, cone filters, cylinder filters and
screen filters in perforated plate, wedge wire
and woven wire mesh.

Quality of both product and service has been
the key to Croft’s success and continues to
drive the company forward.
