Plant-based beverage extraction system
Maximize yield and product quality in plant-based and dairy beverages with high-efficiency extraction and separation, ensuring minimal sedimentation and superior cleanability.
Efficiently Separates and Extracts Liquid-Solid Mixtures
The Tetra Pak® Decanter is engineered to excel in the separation and extraction of liquid-solid mixtures, particularly in plant-based and dairy applications. This industrial decanter centrifuge utilizes a differential speed mechanism between the rotating bowl and screw conveyor, optimizing yield and product quality. It supports the production of oat milk, almond milk, and other non-dairy beverages by ensuring low sedimentation and high purity in the extracted base.
Capable of processing up to 15,000 liters per hour, the Tetra Pak® Decanter is ideal for continuous, high-speed operations in food and beverage manufacturing. Its hygienic design features Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) capabilities and SaniRibs® technology to eliminate bacterial growth, minimizing downtime and ensuring compliance with stringent food safety standards.
Integrated with a pressurized discharge system, this equipment minimizes foam and air incorporation, preserving the quality of the beverage base and preventing oxidation. Fully automated and capable of seamless integration into existing production lines, the decanter is a robust solution for improving operational efficiency and product integrity. Additionally, customization options are available to meet specific processing needs, ensuring optimal performance for your production requirements.
