Centrifuge: Chamber Bowl Separator
Chamber Bowl Separators Pharma Biotech
This separator has been designed for protein recovery. PKB 25 - 300-600 l/h* & PKB 45 - 500-1000 l/h*
Overview
The valuable solids are separated out in the chamber and periodically removed by hand. Separation is executed by reliable, cooled chamber centrifuges. The bowl inserts divides the bowl in two chambers. The product is fed into the center of the rotating bowl through the feed. It flows from the center to the periphery through both chambers, whereas the finer particles are separated out in the outer chamber. The clarifying efficiency remains constant until the chambers are filled with proteins.

Around the world in seven questions: New foods we’ll love
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
