Liquid-liquid extraction, Liquid-Liquid separation
GEA solid-wall disk-type separators are used primarily for separating liquid mixtures with no or with only minimal solid contents (less than < 0.1 % by vol.).
The separator is equipped with a solid-wall bowl. The product is separated into a light phase and a heavy phase within the disk stack. The separated components are discharged under pressure by means of the corresponding centripetal pumps through pipe outlets. The use of a disk stack increases the equivalent clarification area Σ of the separator Solid-wall, disk-type separators can be offered with all product-contacted components made of high corrosion resistant materials.
Depending on the design, the location of the discharge drain hole is in the bottom of the bowl. This prevents the operator or service personnel from coming into contact with extremely dangerous substances.


Desde hace más de 100 años, GEA desarrolla tecnologías para la ganadería lechera, desde las primeras máquinas de ordeño con cubos hasta los sistemas autónomos y conectados digitalmente. Estas innovaciones han transformado radicalmente la ganadería lechera: se ha pasado de rutinas que exigían mucha mano de obra a una mayor productividad, un mejor bienestar animal y unas operaciones diarias más eficientes.
