Industrial cyclone separators for air particulate removal

Optimize particulate removal in air streams with cyclone separators, utilizing vortex separation and gravity to efficiently separate solids and air, enhancing production purity and reducing filter dependency.

Effectively Separates Particulates from Air Streams

The Anhydro Cyclone Separator is an engineered solution designed for efficient particle removal across various industries, including food, dairy, and beverage processing. It operates using a vortex separation method, leveraging rotational effects and gravity to separate solids from air streams without filters. This equipment is capable of handling a range of particulate loads, making it suitable for producing infant formula powder, protein-enriched milk, and plant-based protein powders. Installation options vary from single to multiple configurations, with facilities for fines return to the top of the chamber or external fluid beds.

The Cyclone Separator can be integrated into continuous, high-speed operations with its adaptable configurations. It ensures energy-efficient separation processes, and options include outlet stiffeners for structural integrity, explosion vents for safety, and CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems for hygienic maintenance. Built from robust materials, it supports operational demands and regulatory compliance, making it a reliable choice for companies seeking precise and consistent particulate separation in their production lines.

Benefits

  • Enhances product purity by efficiently removing particulates from air streams.
  • Supports versatile production needs with flexible installation configurations.
  • Minimizes energy use by utilizing gravity and rotational effects instead of filters.
  • Reduces safety risks with optional explosion vents and suppression systems.
  • Maintains rigorous hygiene standards through effective CIP integration.
