Solid/liquid extractor for high-yield functional nutrient extraction
Maximize extraction efficiency and elevate product quality by transforming by-products into high-value nutrients through advanced solid/liquid separation, enhancing both yield and profitability.
Extracts and Separates Nutrients with Precision
The ANDRITZ Turbex solid/liquid extractor revolutionizes extraction by leveraging a patented process with sequential rotors and stators, creating turbulence, shearing, and cavitation for enhanced yields. Ideal for food, nutraceuticals, and agriculture, it efficiently produces polyphenol-rich extracts, protein isolates, and essential oils. Operating continuously at high speeds, it integrates seamlessly with existing lines and reduces energy consumption by 30% compared to traditional methods. Constructed for durability, it offers flexible material options for resisting corrosion and supports CIP for easy maintenance. Fully automated, it aligns with stringent compliance standards, offering a tailored solution for diverse extraction needs.
