Ransom Naturals Ltd (RNL), part of the OBG Pharmaceuticals Group and manufacturer of natural products and extracts to the Pharmaceutical, Healthcare, Cosmetic, Food and Drinks industries has been working closely with membrane filtration specialists, Axium Process, to develop a system that would process an aqueous or solvent based extraction process to remove suspended solids and bioburden from raw plant extracts to meet product specifications.
Following previous experience with extraction technology involving membranes, Ransom Naturals Ltd commissioned Axium Process to design and build a mobile ATEX Zone One rated membrane filtration plant which would be able to move to a number of positions in their factory. The plant was finished to pharmaceutical standards and designed and built in house; the system fully installed, commissioned and operator training carried out by Axium’s engineers.
