Biomass - Import export

The RUF briquetting systems of the Biomass series process dust, shavings and wooden chips into briquettes of consistently high quality and density. Varying bulk densities are offset automatically during the process. These materials can be pressed into a compact form without the use of binders. It is important that the moisture content of the chips is below 15%, preferably under 12%, and that the chip size does not exceed 50mm. The general rule is that the finer the material is, the smoother and more solid the surfaces and edges of the resulting briquette. The systems can be equipped with a multitude of options, thus optimally adapting them to customer needs. This series offers maximum flexibility. All systems are extremely energy efficient thanks to the innovative RUF hydraulic system. Depending on the model, the machines are equipped with motors ranging between 4 kW and 90 kW. The throughput capacities of the RUF Biomass presses range between 50 and 1,300 kg/h.

Flottweg Sedicanter separates solids from liquids. Its special feature: the solids consist of a sediment with properties ranging between soft and fluid. Typical applications of the Sedicanter are "soft products": ► Biomass, yeast and protein suspensions. ► Fermentation broths and UF retentate ► CIP cleaning liquids and coarse matter-free live sludge ► Fruit juice byproducts and plant-derived raw materials ► Soap separation from oil refining processes The special technical features of the Flottweg Sedicanter: ► Separation of extremely difficult-to-sediment solids by acceleration up to 10,000 gee. ► Hygienic design, thus usable for applications in biotechnology ► Flexibility with fluctuating composition of the feed product by the adjustable impeller ► Gas-tight operation is possible by sealing the separation space off from the ambient air using inert gas
