From the food to the pharmaceutical industry to the processing of by-products - so specific, individual and optimized, our Z series can meet many challenges with flying colors. Hygienic design, for our customers where cleanliness matters, can be guaranteed in every machine. Special ATEX protection ensures safety and our own Simp Drive® drive system make the technological performance perfect.

A decanter can be thought of as a settling basin that wraps around an axis. In the settling basin, the solid particles that are heavier than the liquid move to the bottom by gravity and form a sediment at the bottom of the basin. In the rotating drum of the centrifuge, the solid particles that are heavier than the liquid move outward by centrifugal force and form a sediment on the inner wall of the centrifuge drum. Since forces of about 3000 g occur in a centrifuge, as opposed to 1 g in the gravitational field, the separation of the solid particles from the liquid is much faster and more efficient.

The Flottweg Z8E: The Giant Decanter With the new Z8E decanter centrifuge, Flottweg is extending its product range and setting new standards. Right from the start of development of the Z8E, the target was set of concentrating on the specific requirements of an extremely wide range of industries. The modular design of this decanter centrifuge means it is possible to adjust optimally to all kinds of separating tasks. Irrespective of whether two-phase or three-phase separation is involved, Flottweg always has the right machine configuration available with the Z8E decanter centrifuge. Typical Applications of The Flottweg Z8E - Mining and the processing industry - Chemicals and biotechnology - Foodstuffs and beverage industry - Vegetable oils, animal fat and renewable fuels - Wastewater and oil sludges
