Conclusion
Brewery techniques - The suitability and reality of membrane processes

Membrane processes in breweries offer numerous opportunities and are now an industrial reality. Their implementation in breweries is a technological fact and a criterion for the economic and environmental efficiency of the brewing process.

Brewery filtration has many applications. They vary according to the type of beer and the brewing stage involved:

• separation of mash into wort and spent grain;

• young beer;

• tank fundraising ;

• beer for the end of the ageing period.

• The number of works devoted to tangential microfiltration of beer indicates that there is a definite interest in developing this technology for breweries (table 1).
