54. X-ray Inspection Of Meat Chubs 6/7/2021

    Aluminum clips and bones in chubs can lead to consumer complaints. These low density contaminants are usually difficult to detect, but the Anritsu XR75 x-ray system easily and repeatably finds these hazards, ensuring product quality.

55. X-ray Detection Of Stones In Bulk Blueberries 6/7/2021

    Crops like berries often pick up unwanted stones or glass during harvesting. Because both stones and glass are lower density materials, they are challenging for most x-ray inspection systems to detect. Read how the Anritsu XR75 DualX uses dual-energy inspection to greatly enhance detection of lower density materials including the challenging glass and rocks. This technology enables reliable detection of these contaminants at low false reject rates – a true win-win solution for this difficult application.

56. Understanding Particle Filtration In Liquids In Food And Beverage Industry Applications 5/28/2021

    In food and beverage production there is often a need for particle removal filtration of liquids and gases, with the goal of achieving high product quality while driving down manufacturing costs.

    Filters are available with many types of filtration materials, designs, performance characteristics, and separation mechanisms, so much so that their proper selection can seem daunting. This article focuses on a narrower discussion about particle removal performance in liquids with cartridge and bag filters, i.e. in the microfiltration range of over 0.1 micron, and the filtration mechanisms involved.

57. KETOS Ensures Consistent Product Quality With Water Quality Monitoring 3/22/2021

    A microbrewery utilizing groundwater as one of the water sources in the brewing process had difficulty receiving permits. A full lifecycle remediation and monitoring process needed to be in place to receive permits. 

58. Water Quality Monitoring To Ensure Consistent Product Quality 3/17/2021

    A vineyard in California's Central Valley that grows grapes, almonds, and a variety of other crops faced a number of issues including the inability to obtain real-time insight into Nitrates and Boron from their groundwater supply; the need to generate the correct mixture of surface water and groundwater to protect crops agains excess fertilization.

59. Winery Becomes California’s Most Eco-Friendly With Advanced Biological Treatment And Nutrient Removal 3/1/2021

    When Silver Oak Cellars decided to expand and open a new winery in Alexander Valley, they wanted to create the greenest winery ever with eco-friendly features throughout their production process. A key component of the water efficiency aspect to the green production is Smith & Loveless’ TITAN MBR™ membrane bioreactor system which supplies the highest levels of biological treatment and nutrient removal. The TITAN MBR™ helped the winery become the first ever to earn a LEED Platinum Certification for new construction in 2018 (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design).
