  • Systems and Methods for Processing Juice
    Publication number: 20230016781
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method and a system for processing grapes. An example system includes a simulated moving bed (SMB) device configured to receive a feed stream and an eluent stream as inputs and provide an extract stream and a raffinate stream as outputs. The feed stream includes a grape juice, the extract stream includes a high-sugar grape juice, and the raffinate stream includes a low-sugar grape juice. The system also includes fermentation equipment configured to produce a low-alcohol wine from the low-sugar grape juice.

  • Hydrophilic cross-linked polymeric membranes and sorbents
    Patent number: 7622045
    Abstract: Hydrophilic cross-linked polymeric membranes, when prepared according to the process of the present invention, are unique in character in as much as the steady state permeability of the membrane has been altered by blending and cross-linking polyalkyl amines and polyalcohols. To obtain desired results, the compositions must contain at least 10% polyalkyl amines, with preferred amounts of polyalkyl amines in the composition being in excess of 40%, with over 50% polyalkyl amine concentration by weight.
