Special applications for our centrifuges in this industry are the use in soapstock splitting, treatment of used cooking oils as well as crude oil and miscella clarification for the production of high quality lecithin. Further applications are transesterification processes (e.g. for making biodiesel), processing od epoxidized oils, wet fractionation of fatty acids as well as further oleochemical applications.
Fine-tune your separation results
Our oil refining separators feature the GEA finetuner, a combination between a centripetal pump and a paring tube. It is characterized by a substantially improved efficiency factor compared to conventional centripetal pumps.
This is the ratio of the conversion of rotational energy into pressure. The effect is viscous media such as gums from super degumming installations can be discharged without difficulty. The adjustment of the finetuner diameter can be done by a manual hand wheel or by a pneumatic actuator from the control unit.
