Ltd bAlbert Handtmann Armaturenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG to 3% PVPP loss with some PVPP particles being retrieved in the beer as microplastic. This highlights that CSS system combined with Seplife K602FF/CSS3.0 resin provides a cost effective, reliable and consistent technology, in line with the modern quality and safety requirements of the beer industry. Conclusion Sunresin’s Seplife K602FF/CSS3.0 resin is specifically designed for polyphenol removal in beer, addressing the evolving needs of the modern brewing industry. It exhibits excellent chemical and physical stability in accelerated ageing tests and is well-suited for use in CSS systems. It is commercially available from Handtmann in batch size 300-1000L with a short delivery time. Seplife K602FF/CSS3.0 is compliant with food regulations and can be safely used without risks of leaching or contamination. Technical support will facilitate installation of resin in any equipment for easy product employability. The combination of Seplife K602FF/CSS3.0 and CSS systems offers advantages in terms of quality, scalability, food compliance and economical savings thanks to high automation and continuous processing.
