Hydrocyclone
A hydrocyclone is used in biofermentation processes to separate particles from a liquid stream using centrifugal force. This is a useful technology in industry.
Hydrocyclones are an effective tool for improving process efficiency and product quality in the biofermentation industries.
Hydrocyclones have a wide range of applications. Within the food and beverage industry, hydrocyclones are mainly used for the separation and classification of particles in liquids. In biosolutions, they can be used to separate solids from biological solutions or to separate biomass for various purposes.
Application in biofermentation processes
In biofermentation processes, hydrocyclones can be used to separate microorganisms or cell components from a fermented liquid. This can be particularly useful in the production of biotechnological products such as enzymes and other bioproducts.
Our Hydrocyclone
