  • Ceramic (asymmetric): Ultrafiltration 1–80 nm; microfiltration 0.2–2 µm
  • Metal: 1–200 µm
Membrane area: 0.03–32 m2 Processable viscosity: up to 7,000 mPas Crossflow velocity: up to 7.3 m/s Shear stress: up to 140,000 Pa Operating feed pressure: 0-6 bar (isobaric processing possible) Operating TMP: 0.3–2.0 bar (lower than other crossflow technologies) Applications: Dairy, clarification of wine/beer/juice, neutraceuticals and functional ingredients (proteins, enzymes), industrial fermentation (proteins, enzymes, yeast, E. coli), animal processing, bioprocess engineering products, chemical or solvent recovery    ]]>

Unlike traditional crossflow filtration methods, the Andritz Dynamic Crossflow Filter (DCF) can concentrate the retentate to achieve a pasty or sludge consistency – making it much more effective.

 

The overlapping ceramic membrane disks rotate in the same direction to create a turbulent crossflow without using a pump to circulate the rentate. The wall shear stress generated is 50% higher than found in conventional crossflow filters – greatly reducing the formation of a clogging layer, while substantially improving the filtration rate at the same time. This advantage is most evident when dealing with high-viscosity retentates.

  • Performance: the food-grade standard machine. Plain carbon steel frame with stainless steel interior, cover in stainless steel, wash ramps for top performance CIP, and polished if needed for the application.
  • Sanitary: designed to ensure maximum cleanliness. Same design as Performance except for frame, which is made of plain stainless steel with integrated casing and with polishing up to RA<0.8 μm if needed.
]]> With more than 15,000 decanter centrifuges installed around the world, ANDRITZ Separation is one of the global leaders for the supply of centrifuges. The Decanter Centrifuge F is specifically designed for the food and beverage industry and meets the most demanding hygiene requirements.

Applications for the Model F Decanter Centrifuge:

  • Beverage extraction (wine, juices)
  • Beverage solid reduction (wine, juices, plant-based milk)
  • Dairy (casein, lactose, calcium phosphate)
  • Oil and fats (olive oil — two and three phases, animal blood, animal fat)
  • Green chemicals (starch, proteins, bioethanol, vinasses K2SO4)
