Solid-wall bowl separator for chemical products
Optimize your separation and clarification processes with this high-speed, solid-wall disk-type separator, engineered to handle challenging liquid mixtures and corrosive compounds with minimal solid content, ensuring efficient phase separation while protecting against material corrosion.
Separates and Clarifies Chemical Liquid Mixtures
The GEA solid-wall disk-type separator is engineered to efficiently separate and clarify chemical liquid mixtures with minimal solid content. Utilizing a disk stack within a solid-wall bowl, it effectively divides products into light and heavy phases under high-speed operation. This centrifugal separator accommodates continuous processing of specialty chemicals, emulsions, and solvent-based products, including ethanol-water mixtures and biofuels. Designed with high corrosion-resistant materials, it ensures reliability even with corrosive liquid compounds.
With options for stainless steel construction, the separator offers seamless integration into existing production lines with enhanced control through PLC automation and remote monitoring. Energy efficiency is markedly improved with variable-speed motor control, optimizing power usage. The unit also supports clean-in-place (CIP) systems, ensuring easy maintenance and reduced downtime. Compliant with industry standards, this separator is ideal for chemical producers, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and food and beverage companies, addressing critical purification and separation needs effectively.
