Unlocking the potential for winemaking applications of membrane filtration

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The methods currently used to achieve clarification and stabilisation of wine are slow, energy intensive, and waste wine. New methods that ‘finish’ wine rapidly, with higher recovery rates, and reduced waste and input costs are therefore needed. This project aims to drive profitability in the Australian wine sector by accelerating the uptake and adoption of membrane filtration as an innovative alternative to unsustainable winemaking practices. A key driver of the success achieved by our wine industry has been the application of modern technology to an otherwise traditional product category. To remain successful, industry requires new knowledge, new technical solutions, and a well-educated workforce – these are key outcomes of this project.
