*Manufacturer Description*
GEA separators are designed for liquid-based applications. Using centrifugal force, they are used for separating suspensions consisting of two or more phases of different densities, i.e. they can be used for liquid-liquid separation, for liquid-liquid-solid separation or for liquid-solid separation. They are equally as effective at separating liquid mixtures at the same time as removing solids.
This centrifuge has been designed for the clarification of beverages. With the patented GEA Westfalia Separator hydrostop bowl ejection system, this machine is suitable particularly for applications where the prime target is high yield. High solid contents likewise present no problem. The self-cleaning bowl makes the machine suitable for fully automatic cleaning-in-place. The feed and discharge are in a closed system. The bowl is hydrohermetically sealed. A mechanical seal is therefore not required. The machine is driven by a 3-phase AC motor via a low-maintenance flat belt. All product-contacting parts are made of stainless steel; the gaskets conform to the requirements of food operations.
GEA clarifiers for pharma extraction are used in solid-liquid extraction processes with low solid contents (up to approx. 7 % by vol.)
GEA separators for pharma extraction are designed in accordance to GMP requirements. No shear forces acting on the product by the patented hydrohermetic feed and hydrostop system for controlled partial ejections. The clarifiers are suitable for fully automatic cleaning-in-place (CIP).
GEA separators cover all processes of liquid-liquid extractions, whether in one or more stages on the concurrent, counter-current and cross-current principles. Centrifugal extraction by GEA clarifiers bear the following advantages:
Reduced operating costs, low solvent requirement. Higher overall yield by short contact times. Reduced investment costs by high stage efficiency minimizing the number of stages. Optimum throughput capacity with minimum space requirement. Higher overall yield with a significant improvement in substance interchange between the phases by avoiding backmixing. Higher overall yield qualities. Higher process security and availability.
