How Pall Technologies Support Brewers’ Sustainability Programs
Oct, 2025
Brewing a Greener Future with Filtration Innovation
Breweries worldwide are adopting sustainability not only to reduce their environmental impact but also to strengthen their market position and brand value. From reducing water and energy consumption to minimizing waste and carbon emissions, brewers are rethinking every step of their production process. Pall is helping lead this transformation with advanced filtration technologies that support environmental goals without compromising product quality.
Why Sustainability Matters in Brewing
Sustainability is no longer optional. According to Euromonitor’s 2025 “Voice of the Consumer” report, sustainability has become a decisive factor in consumer purchasing decisions, with growing expectations for brands to demonstrate environmental responsibility. In the brewing industry, this means reducing resource usage, improving energy efficiency, and ensuring clean water management, all while maintaining the taste and consistency customers expect.
Reducing Water Consumption with Pall Aria™ Systems
Water is one of the most critical resources in brewing. While the industry average ranges from 3 to 6 liters of water per liter of beer produced, breweries using Pall Aria™ Systems have achieved levels as low as 2.2 L/L. These systems enable high-quality water recovery and reuse, significantly reducing freshwater demand and wastewater discharge.
Eliminating DE Waste with the PROFi Membrane System
Traditional beer clarification often relies on diatomaceous earth (DE), which generates substantial waste. The Pall PROFi System replaces DE with membrane-based crossflow filtration, reducing waste by over 99%. For example, a 1 million hectoliter brewery can cut DE waste from hundreds of tons to less than 300 kg per year—while improving process control and safety.
Saving Resources with CBS Beer Stabilization Systems
The CBS (Continuous Beer Stabilization) System streamlines stabilization by using PVPP in a continuous loop. Compared to conventional methods, CBS reduces water and cleaning agent consumption by up to 30%. Smaller system vessels and automated cycling also lower labor and energy requirements, boosting sustainability and throughput.
Cutting Energy Use with the CFS NEO Cold Filtration System
Pasteurization is energy-intensive, but the CFS NEO System offers a smarter alternative. This automated cartridge-based cold filtration system eliminates the need for thermal treatment, reducing thermal energy use by up to 72%, water consumption by 85%, and power consumption by 80% compared to flash pasteurizers.
Sustainability That Pays Off
By integrating these technologies, breweries can significantly reduce their environmental footprint while improving product consistency and operational efficiency. Pall’s solutions are scalable and proven, helping brewers of all sizes meet regulatory requirements, enhance brand value and lower costs.
