Description
Tubular Centrifuge for Liquid Liquid Solid separation
Tubular centrifuges is widely used in a variety of
biological processes from cell harvesting and clarifying to
separations of chemicals, foods, blood and pharmaceuticals.
Consistently high performance is achieved without using costly
disposables in continuous, semi-continuous or batch operations.
The process
Fluid mixtures are fed into the bottom of the rapidly rotating
separation chamber. Solids are retained, while liquid components
are expelled from the top of the chamber through a collection
tray. For liquid-liquid separations, two collection trays are used.
The retained solids cake is dry and densely packed by the high
G-forces .
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Harvesting biomass
Clarifying process liquids
Separating liquid products
Fractionation of human blood
Animal blood processing
Bioremediation
Processing of granular, crystalline and fibrous suspensions
Separation of filterable and non-filterable sludges
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Rapid separations
Consistent performance
Range of models facilitate scale-up
Simple to set up, easy to use and rapidly cleaned with minimal
downtime. No fragile membranes to install
No replacement membranes, or costly disposables
Small footprint saves valuable space
ADVANTAGES OF CENTRIFUGATION OVER FILTRATION
Of the two technologies commonly used to separate fluids,
centrifugation and filtration, tubular centrifuges offer these
benefits:
Economical to use, no costly membranes or other disposables.
Faster; In the same floor or bench space, tubular centrifuge
process many times faster than filtration systems.
No wasted product; with tubular Centrifuges, separated
solid and liquid components are readily available. Filtration
systems trap and embed cell mass and other solids.
Consistent performance; No MID-run degradation as filters clog. No
membrane aging or lot variations. No chemical leaching from
polymeric filters.
Rugged; Heavy duty construction. All stainless steel fluid path
resists chemicals and high temperatures.
