Introduction to Flottweg Separation Technology

The focus of Flottweg in the field of liquid-solid separation is primarily on the sedimentation processes od solid liquid mixtures or suspensions. Flottweg's equipment range includes Solid Bowl Scroll Centrifuges, more commonly known as DECANTER centrifuges, DISC centrifuges and BELT presses. The areas of most comon use for the types of machines are as follows:

 

DECANTER centrifugesdecanter DDGS centrifuge sludge dewatering drill mud oil bio diesel ethanol  

Dewatering of slurries with a high solids content

DISC centrifugesdisc centrifuge biodiesel bioethanol flottweg clarifier separator purifier oil suspensions  

Separation of slurries containing a low percentage of suspended solids

BELT pressesbelt press flottweg fruit juice fruit pulp pomace  

High capacity separation to produce a high cake solids content

While most separation processes involve one solid and one liquid phase, Flottweg's centrifuges can also be employed for systems consisting of two liquids, two liquids and one solid, or two solids and one liquid. This degree of flexibility ensures that Flottweg is able to meet the requirements of an extremely large range of separation processes.

Over the years Flottweg has developed a high degree of expertise in many areas of separation. Due to customer demand the scope of supply has expanded from single pieces of equipment to complete systems, such as the system for cleaning oil sludge pictured below. Such systems can be laid out as either stationary or mobile systems.
