Nozzle separators for palm oil recovery
Maximize your oil recovery and reduce waste with nozzle separators, designed to efficiently reclaim valuable oils from sterilizer condensate while minimizing environmental impact.

The nozzle separator from GEA stands out as a robust, efficient solution for palm and vegetable oil producers seeking to enhance oil recovery from sterilizer condensate while minimizing waste water production. Designed for continuous, high-speed operation, this equipment capitalizes on GEA’s expertise in centrifugal separation. It utilizes a specialized design to recover oil typically lost in the sterilization process, recycling it back into the main production line, thereby reducing overall oil losses. With a compact form and low space requirement, it integrates seamlessly into existing production setups, offering automated operation with minimal manpower. Capable of high throughput rates, the nozzle separator is engineered to handle large volumes efficiently. Additionally, its durable construction ensures long-lasting performance in demanding industrial environments. Available with various material options, it offers excellent resistance to corrosion, making it ideal for handling diverse oil types. The solution supports enhanced efficiency with lower investment costs compared to traditional decanters and includes customizable features to fit specific operational needs.
