Centrifuge
This decanter has been designed for extraction products.
Decanters are a very efficient means of carrying out solid-liquid extraction with a high solids content. Before entering the decanter, the extraction product, which has previously been comminuted, broken down or ground down, is mixed intensively with the extraction agent in a separate mixer. The inlet through which the suspension flows into the decanter is arranged axially in relation to the rotating bowl. The solid-wall bowl has a cylindrical section for efficient clarification of the liquid and a conical section for dewatering the solids. The scroll, which rotates with a slight differential speed relative to the bowl, conveys the solids (extraction residue) to the solids discharge at the conical end of the bowl. The extract is conveyed to the cylindrical end of the bowl where it is discharged via a centripetal pump.


GEA solid-wall disc-type separators are used for liquid-liquid extraction processes

GEA separators for pharma extraction are designed in accordance to GMP requirements.

GEA clarifiers for pharma extraction are used in solid-liquid extraction processes with low solid contents (up to approx. 7 % by vol.).

Even the best centrifuges cannot function optimally if they are not partnered with control systems of equal quality. For their range of separators and decanters, GEA offers standardized as well as tailor-made solutions for machine automation with many features to meet customer requirements.
Whether it’s a fad or the future, 100% vial traceability is becoming an increasingly important consideration in the pharmaceutical freeze drying industry. Keeping a close eye on developments is GEA. We’re investigating possible solutions and, what’s more, we have the experience, expertise and know-how to implement them.
Był taki czas, kiedy frazy „piwo bezalkoholowe” oraz „smakuje dobrze” bardzo rzadko pojawiały się w tym samym zdaniu, zwłaszcza w ustach konsumentów. Ale sektor piw o niskiej zawartości alkoholu i bezalkoholowych zdążył przejść bardzo długą drogę – wiele tego typu produktów to obecnie ożywcze napoje tworzące osobną kategorię – w dużej mierze dzięki technologii GEA.
At GEA, our commitment to engineering for a better world fuels our pursuit of innovative solutions that enhance patient care and safety. One of our most promising ventures in recent years is aseptic spray drying – a technology that promises to revolutionize pharmaceutical manufacturing.
