Extraction of suspensions with low solid contents
GEA clarifiers for pharma extraction are used in solid-liquid extraction processes with low solid contents (up to approx. 7 % by vol.).
GEA clarifiers cover all processes of liquid-solid extractions, whether in one or more stages on the co-current, counter-current and cross-current principles.Centrifugal extraction by GEA clarifiers bear the following advantages:
Reduced operating costs, low solvent requirement. Higher overall yield by short contact times. Reduced investment costs by high stage efficiency minimizing the number of stages. Optimum throughput capacity with minimum space requirement. Higher overall yield with a significant improvement in substance interchange between the phases by avoiding backmixing. Higher overall yield qualities. Higher process security and availability.
Is a FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) of your centrifuge not possible on site due to current travel restrictions, a very tight schedule or other urgent reasons? Are you generally looking for ways to make business processes more digital and to sustainably reduce costs and time?

GEA's innovative process marks a milestone in the pretreatment of biofuels such as hydro-treated vegetable oil and sustainable aviation fuel. By eliminating the bleaching process, manufacturers benefit from significant savings potential: over 50% lower operating costs and up to 12% less CO2 emissions.
Climate change and a growing world population put increased pressure on the energy-intensive food industry to feed more people without further impacting the planet. George Shepherd, GEA’s Global Technical Sustainability Manager, explains how GEA uses its engineering know-how to help processors produce more sustainably yet increase productivity.
