GEA offers a comprehensive range of disk-stack separators specifically engineered for the efficient processing of animal fats and proteins.
Whether the objective is maximum fat or protein yields or qualities, efficient defatting of i.e. stickwater streams, whether basic or high sanitary standards, our high-speed separator portfolio for animal by-products provide reliable, proven solutions for every processing requirement.
GEA separators for processing animal by-products are designed for two key process objectives:
Defatting:
Removal of fat from stickwater or presswater
Focus on minimizing fat content in the water phase (= heavy liquid phase)
To achieve the best possible defatting of the water phase, the rising channel in the disk-stack has to be positioned at the stack's center. In the rising channel, the two liquid phases separate from one another; if the channel is positioned close to the disk-stack's center the heavy phase (water) is given as much space as possible inside the disk-stack. This allows even the smallest impurities to be removed from the water.
Polishing:
Final cleaning of fats and oils
Focus on achieving optimal fat quality and purity (= light liquid phase)
If the focus is on a maximally purified light phase - that is, the oil or fat - the rising channel should be positioned on the outside so that the oil phase has as much space as possible inside the disk-stack.

Insights da GEA
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Além da máquina: como alcançar um melhor desempenho da planta
Uma máquina eficiente não significa, por si só, uma fábrica eficiente. A verdadeira melhoria geralmente começa quando se vai além dos equipamentos individuais e se compreende como os processos, os sistemas de energia e as decisões operacionais se afetam mutuamente. É uma abordagem integral concebida para identificar oportunidades que, de outra forma, poderiam passar despercebidas.
Como uma válvula revoluciona a forma como alimentos e bebidas são produzidos
Em plantas de alimentos e bebidas, as válvulas são normalmente acionadas por meio de ar comprimido. A GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology aciona as válvulas por meio de água, em um circuito fechado e controlado digitalmente. O resultado é uma válvula que pode ser mantida exatamente no lugar e ajustada em etapas precisas. Isso resulta em menor consumo de energia e maior controle.
