Nozzle separators are used in the conventional process with vertical clarifiers in palm oil mills.
GEA also offers special nozzle separators to the palm oil industry in order to recover oil from sterilizer condensate. Waste water has not been processed in the past so this new process stage with our nozzle-type separator in a bypass increases the oil yield. Because of its specific design, the nozzle-type separator is able to recover the palm oil which is contained in the sterilizer condensate. The recovered oil can be recycled back into the main process. This means less oil losses in the overall process. The volume of waste water is also considerably reduced
GEA nozzle-type separators feature high throughput capacities, a very robust design, low space requirement, a high degree of automation and (compared with decanters) lower investment costs.

The big advantage of the 2-phase separating decanter for olive and palm oil recovery is the enormous savings when it comes to dilution water.

For the recovery of olive, palm and other vegetable crude oil the decanter is always the heart of the installation. 3-Phase decanters separate both, the olive pulp or the palm oil sludge into oil, water and solids.

Even the best centrifuges cannot function optimally if they are not partnered with control systems of equal quality. For their range of separators and decanters, GEA offers standardized as well as tailor-made solutions for machine automation with many features to meet customer requirements.

Polishing separators from GEA ensure the required premium quality of olive, palm, avocado and many other recovered vegetable oils by removing all residues while handling the product with extreme care
