American Tartaric Products, Inc. is proud to introduce two new processes to increase productivity at your winery while streamlining production.

Firstly, the GB flotation system is designed to work almost immediately off of the presses to float juice solids and separate them from "clean" juice after enzymation. Imagine being able to separate the solids from the juice and start fermentation almost immediately without having to wait the typical 24-48 hours for cold settling as well as saving the energy costs involved in cooling during that time. The unit comes in a variety of sizes to accommodate any winery and can be used as a batch system on a recirculation, or on a tank transfer. Also, GB has the unique distinction of being the ONLY float unit in the market that can be run continuously with the optional automated tank. No batches and no waiting for the separation to occur. This system also includes automated suction arms to remove the floated solids and transfer them to the next phase.

Speaking of the next phase, ATP also has a brand new generation of our High-Solids Dynamos crossflow unit. Designed to eliminate the need for DE rotovac filtration, or typical tubular high solids crossflow, the Dynamos can handle any level of solids that you can transfer to the filter! Bentonite, carbon, 50-60 percent solids, it can filter it. With the use of ceramic disks that rotate around the product, the unit revolutionizes crossflow filtration while operating at very low pressures in an enclosed environment. The filtrate that is retained is bottle-ready via the 0.1 micron nominal porosity rating.The latest generation provides more automation an CIP improvements.

Please contact either Ian Rickard (707-975-2916) or Rob Schuberg (209-810-3948) to arrange trials with these units to see how they can improve production and quality at your winery!
