FIXED-DOSE FILTRATION 
THE LAMINAR FILTRATION MODEL
Before Laminar → With Laminar  

Stop Dosing for the Dirtiest SKU You Run

Your filter doesn't need more kieselguhr — it needs to know when to dose. Today, breweries rely one recipe to cover every SKU, every batch, every incoming turbidity, so the dose gets set for the worst case and never moves. Result? Filter aid you pay for twice. Once to buy it, once to haul away.

Start Dosing to Real Filtration Load

Laminar Process-Aware Spectral Sensors read the liquid entering the filter. Our ML models translate that into the body feed each hectoliter actually needs and drive the dose in real time. Trial runs cut filter aid 22% to 38% per hectoliter with no change to clarity spec.

Short Runs Burn Uptime Hours

Differential pressure climbs, the run hits the limit, and the filter drops out for regeneration hours before it had to. Every early regeneration is another pre-coat charge, another CIP cycle, and production hours the line never gets back.

Fewer Regenerations = More Hours Actually Filtering.

Laminar holds differential pressure growth to half its baseline rate, so runs go the distance the beer allows rather than the distance a fixed dose forces. Fewer stops between hectoliters. More of your filter's day spent on the job you bought it for.

Pre-Coat Is a Fixed Charge on a Short Run

Pre-coat mass is charged per regeneration, not per hectoliter. A short run spreads that fixed mass thin. The shorter your runs, the more pre-coat you pay for on every hectoliter that leaves the filter.

Longer Runs Spread Pre-Coat Further

Extend the run and the same pre-coat mass covers more beer. At the runtime extension measured in trial, pre-coat cost per hectoliter falls by more than half — before a single gram of body feed is saved.

Before Laminar

  • Fixed-Dose Recipes with Built-In Worst Case Tax
  • Early Regenerations Drive
    Down Throughput
  • High Overhead on Filter Aid In & Out

After Laminar

  • SKU-Aware Dosing
  • Full-Length Runs with More Throughpute Savings
  • Filter Aid Cut Per Hectoliter

Process Aware Filtration Fitted to Your Filter and Your SKUs

A filtration model that ignores what it's filtering is a recipe with extra steps. Laminar accounts for three things a recipe can't.

Every SKU Filters Differently.

FAQs

Find answers to the most common questions about the
Laminar Filtration Model & Process-Aware Spectral Sensors.

Which industries does Laminar Filtration support?

Laminar Filtration supports a variety of processing industries including but not limited to brewery, dairy, and protein.

Which filter types does Laminar support?

Candle, plate-and-frame, and horizontal leaf. Filter geometry and area change how a run behaves, so both are inputs to your model rather than assumptions baked into it. We size the model to your filter during deployment.

Is Laminar's filtration control compatible with our existing PLC?

Yes. Laminar installs in-line and reads from and writes to your existing control system. Filtration needs more PLC tags than a CIP deployment because dosing, pressure, and flow all move together, so integration scope is scoped per Laminar Line up front.

What's the ROI timeline?

Filter aid savings land on the first run. Runtime extension compounds across the year as the models learn each SKU.

What about validation and compliance?

Every run is logged — dose rate, pressure curve, decision points, and outcome — as an auditable record. Your quality team gets a fuller trace of each filtration than a fixed recipe ever produced.
