Description

The Turbex, an innovative extraction system, converts waste from natural products into functional nutrients. This gives you an additional income stream and reduces your waste disposal costs.

Turbex is a patented solid/liquid extractor based on a disruptive process powered by cavitation in a counter-current flow. A sequence of rotors and stators causes thousands of events per second (turbulence,
shearing, and cavitation), in order to:
• Obtain a higher yield in a shorter processing time
• Provide an extraction process whose performance is unequalled
• Improve product quality (as no oxidation is possible)
• Generate additional revenue by converting by-products into valuable food ingredients and nutritional supplements
