Separators for liquids - Import export

From algae harvesting to beer clarification and protein extraction: If you want to separate or purify liquids or remove ultra-fine particles you need strong and robust separators. Where decanter centrifuges reach their performance limits, the use of separators begins. Thanks to their high speeds, they are able to optimally process liquids. Clarifiers (2-phase separation), separate the finest solid particles from a liquid. As purification separators (3-phase separators), they separate liquid phases of different densities and simultaneously remove solids. Equipped with special features as the Flottweg Soft Shot® discharge system our products belong to the high qualitative products on the market.

In many aspects of process engineering, separators are used for mechanical separation and clarification of mixtures comprising solids and liquids. A separator is liquid-oriented and works with a higher rotation speed than a decanter. As a result, the generated centrifugal acceleration (g number) of a separator is significantly more powerful than in decanter centrifuges. Flottweg separators are suitable for separating ultrafine solid particles from a liquid (clarifier separator). Furthermore, Flottweg separators are suitable for separating mixtures of liquids with different densities at the same time as separating a solid (purifier). Flottweg AC separators (Automatic Cleaning) can be used in a wide range of applications, and are also available in various configurations. — Beverage and brewing industry — Starch industry — Chemicals and biotechnology — Extracting and processing fats and oils

Disc stack centrifuges are high-speed centrifuges for the mechanical separation and clarification of mixtures comprising solids and liquids. Due to their special design, disc stack centrifuges work at a very high rotation speed. As a result, the centrifugal acceleration (g-force) generated by a disc stack centrifuge is extremely powerful. Moreover, the discs included provide a large clarifying area. Thus, it is possible to separate ultrafine solid particles from a liquid and to separate liquid mixtures in an efficient way.

Flottweg nozzle separators (2- and 3-phase nozzle separators) are used for the continuous separation of solids from liquids and ensure highly efficient clarification or separation. The product to be clarified or separated flows via a stationary inlet pipe into the inside of the bowl and is gently accelerated to operating speed by the distributor.

The Flottweg AC1700 separator – the newest member of the Flottweg family Separators are used to separate the finest solid particles from liquids. Separators are available from Flottweg for a wide range of applications, from the production of beverages to the production of vegetable oil. Our separators are subject to different requirements depending on the application and size of the respective plant. To be able to offer our customers more options and the optimum solution, we have expanded our separator portfolio with a new machine size: the Flottweg AC1700 separator. The Flottweg AC1700 separator fits between our popular AC1500 and AC2000 series and completes our product portfolio for the food and beverage industry. With over 70,000 m² / 753,474 ft² of clarification area and an acceleration of 11,000 g, the compact separator ensures an optimally clarified final product with a high throughput.

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

The Flottweg Tricanter® For Three-Phase Separation In three-phase separation, it is possible to separated two liquid phases from one solid phase at the same time. The Flottweg Tricanter® is the perfect partner for separating these three phases. Tricanter® - Typical Applications For Three-Phase Separation - Processing of sludges containing oil from refineries, oil ponds, etc. - Extracting animal/vegetable fats and oils - Starch manufacture for separating wheat starch and gluten Tricanter® - Advantages And Customer Benefits - Greatest possible purity of the liquids to be separated, by using the impeller - Other processing steps/separating stages can be dispensed with, or are no longer required, thereby offering cost savings for the plant owner - Adaptation to changing conditions (product in the feed) possible at any time - Automation is possible - Produced, manufactured and developed in Germany, for the highest possible production quality

Metal separator for installation in liquid conveying lines to inspect fluid as well as pasty products like baby food. The hygienic 3-way separating valve without dead space is suitable for CIP and optional pigging cleaning procedures. Versions for aggressive products, aseptic filling or high temperatures are available on request.
