Clarifiers for biochemical separation

Achieve seamless liquid-solid separation with high-speed disk-type clarifiers, ensuring precise removal of impurities and enhancing product yield across diverse biochemical applications.

Separates and Clarifies Biochemical Mixtures

The GEA clarifier for biochemicals is engineered to precisely separate and clarify complex mixtures in industries like pharmaceuticals, biotech, and food processing. Employing a disk-type bowl with a movable sliding piston, it facilitates rapid and gentle separation, ideal for high-purity amino acids, vitamin extracts, and bioethanol production.

Suitable for continuous operations, the clarifier features a centripetal pump for foam-free liquid discharge and a precise ejection system for uninterrupted performance. With customization options based on customer lab tests, the equipment seamlessly integrates with existing production lines, enhancing process efficiency.

Available in corrosion-resistant materials, this clarifier meets stringent industry standards, including those required for pharmaceutical compliance, ensuring both safety and extended equipment lifespan. Its design also supports easy maintenance, minimizing downtime with features such as CIP systems for efficient in-line cleaning.
