Hygienic Processing
Hygienic processing is a customer-oriented concept to combine the physical attributes of the application environments from your world. Bürkert believes they have intimate knowledge and significant insight into the application environments, which traverse a spectrum of processing industries from pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic, brewery, beverage, dairy, juice production, confectionary, and pet food.
In hygienic processing industries, measuring and controlling the flow of liquids and gases demands superior instrument performance and networkability. Standard connectivity with modular, decentralized monitoring, intelligence, and diagnostics are the platform for flow control networks which provide reliable productivity data from your plant level flow network.
Proven reliability, superior accuracy, and virtually maintenance-free service ensure Bürkert’s systems deliver unsurpassed total performance in the form of complete flow control loop systems.
Steam and Heat Transfer
From pasteurizer control to simple tempering of water, autoclaving of canned food to sterilization of dental equipment, our experience is steam. Your use of steam as a heat transfer media, a cleaning agent, or as a crucial sterile ingredient can be regulated precisely with Bürkert systems and solutions.
Clean-in-Place
Each stage of your CIP/SIP regime can be controlled and safely documented. Our stable and rugged components are designed for the harsh shifts from acid to base, and for the demands of washdown. Our components and system solutions bring peace of mind. Your pH, conductivity, pressure and flow are all important to your consumers.
Water Treatment
Bürkert is involved in the complete water supply chain from groundwater treatment and incoming water supply processing to your most stringent requirements, inline verification, and final decontamination, treatment, and/or neutralization. In the production of de-mineralized water, purified water, and water for injection(s) Bürkert’s technology and expertise are employed with confidence.
Fermentation
Burkert has many years of experience in this area and our knowledge of the process provides our clients with confidence. Process safety is evident in our components for fermentor gas control, pH and pressure monitoring, and modular fieldbus solutions which are used to join individual reactors into coordinated processes.
Downstream Processing
Burkert's unlimited modularity saves you valuable plant space and offers you peace of mind from dead legs and crosscontamination. Less welding means less validation, and our patented designs provide faster crossover times, higher process efficiencies, and higher yields.
Batch and Mixing
From simple components to dose chemicals and specific valves for yogurt filling to fully tested and approved systems for bread ingredients or pasta sauce. We have batched and mixed primary active drug ingredients worth
thousands of euros per gram, cookie mix, shampoo fragrances, cocoa butter ingredients, liquid flour, and syrups with whole fruit pieces.
Filling Control
Whether you fill 200 barrels per day or 20,000 packs per hour, or you are filling portion packages, cartons, briks, bags, or kegs, we are part of the solution for long, high volume production runs at lower operating costs. We help you to reach higher productivity and greater space efficiency in high-speed filling machines and we solve sticky problems at the plant level. Our products have proven themselves with superior cycle life, sterility, accuracy, and
repeatability in plants around the world.
