Wide Range of Food Additives Applications

Our decanter centrifuges are designed to handle various types of food additives production, ensuring consistent quality and efficiency across different applications.

Hydrocolloids & Gums

Xanthan gum, guar gum, carrageenan, locust bean gum, and other natural thickening agents. Our centrifuges ensure pure separation of fermentation broth and extraction solutions.

Natural Colorants

Anthocyanins, carotenoids, and other natural pigments extracted from fruits and vegetables. Precise separation maintains color intensity and purity.

Flavor Compounds

Essential oils, flavor extracts, and aroma compounds. Our equipment preserves volatile compounds while removing unwanted solids and impurities.

Functional Proteins

Whey protein, casein, and other functional proteins. Efficient separation with variable speed and adjustable G-force ensures protein integrity under pH- and temperature-sensitive conditions.

Advanced Hygiene & Safety Highlights

Our food additives decanter centrifuges are designed to deliver contamination-free separation, maximum safety, and reduced downtime — ensuring stable, high-quality production.

Food-Grade Build for Absolute Purity

All product-contact parts meet food and pharmaceutical standards with a sanitary surface finish (≤0.8μm), ensuring hygiene and supporting efficient CIP cleaning.

Fully Automated CIP Cleaning

Multi-stage, high-pressure 360° cleaning eliminates manual cleaning errors, reduces downtime, and keeps hygiene consistent batch after batch.

Inert Gas Explosion Protection

Nitrogen-pressurized sealing prevents air ingress and gas leakage, minimizing explosion risk during sensitive food additives processing.

Multi-Level Safety Protection

Integrated oxygen monitoring, pressure control, and automatic shutdown systems safeguard both product quality and operator safety.
