Separators for biochemicals
Achieve precise separation and purification of complex biochemical mixtures with self-cleaning centrifugal technology, ensuring high product quality and yield in continuous operations.

The self-cleaning GEA separators for biochemicals deliver exceptional performance in separating and purifying liquids, solids, and slurries. Designed for continuous high-speed operations, this equipment excels in producing enzymes, amino acids, and nutraceutical extracts. Utilizing a precision ejection system, it ensures rapid and gentle separation to maintain product quality and yield.
Ideal for biochemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries, these separators integrate seamlessly into production lines with pilot skids available for easy scale-up. The separators are engineered to withstand high pressures and corrosive substances, with options in stainless steel for enhanced durability. With automation controls, energy efficiency is optimized, offering up to 20% energy savings due to advanced motor control. GEA’s separators comply with GMP standards, and their modular design facilitates easy incorporation into existing setups, supported by GEA’s remote FAT service and global repair network.
