JELUCEL^® and JELUXYL^® filter aids are used for precoat filtration of liquids which make high demands on the quality of the filtrate. JELUXYL^® lignocelluloses and JELUCEL^® cellulose powders are suitable for all designs of precoat filters and are mainly used in connection with the following filter types:

• Pressure filtration
  - Candle filters
  - Plate filters
  - Frame filters
  - Pressure belt filters
  
  
• Vacuum filtration
  - Rotary drum filters
  - Vacuum belt filters

Cellulose powders and lignocelluloses are manufactured from renewable resources and are adapted to filter elements of all types. With a high flow rate and long service life, they guarantee optimum clarification results, ensuring an economic filtration process. JELUCEL^® and JELUXYL^® are harmless to health and approved for foodstuff filtration.

Filter aids for customised processes

Our cellulose powders and lignocelluloses are used both as body feeds during the filtration process and as precoats. The broad range of JELU filter media ensures that the filtration process is customised to the unfiltrate and locally installed filtration systems in order to achieve the best possible filtration parameters. JELUCEL^® and JELUXYL^® filter media are available in different fibre lengths and thus with customised permeability characteristics. JELU filter media can be used as the sole filter material or can be combined with traditional filter aids to improve filtration results.

JELUCEL^® and JELUXYL^® filter aids:

• are harmless to health
• are of high purity
• are pH-stable in the range pH 2 to 11
• are non-abrasive
• can be disposed of without harming the environment
• ensure optimised consumption and better life cycle assessment compared to mineral filter aids
