Centrifuge: Chamber Bowl Separator
This separator has been designed for protein recovery. PKB 25 - 300-600 l/h* & PKB 45 - 500-1000 l/h*
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.

Climate change and a growing world population put increased pressure on the energy-intensive food industry to feed more people without further impacting the planet. George Shepherd, GEA’s Global Technical Sustainability Manager, explains how GEA uses its engineering know-how to help processors produce more sustainably yet increase productivity.
The world's population is growing and with it demand for milk. Dairy is an essential component of many global diets. However, its production can be resource-intensive and impact the environment. GEA’s Christian Müller, Senior Director Sustainability Farm Technologies, sheds light on how technological innovations powered by GEA make milk production more efficient and profitable.
Every safe beverage and bite of food is a victory against invisible microbial threats – a battle shaped by a century of hygienic process design. With more than 100 years of engineering and hygienic design know-how, GEA sets the industry standard for processing equipment that protects food and saves lives.
