Buying used centrifuges through International Process Plants gives chemical processing, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food and beverage, dairy processing, wastewater treatment, fine chemicals, biofuels and bioprocessing, petrochemicals, and cosmetics manufacturers and processors access to disc bowl, basket, decanter, and inverting filter centrifuges that separate solids from liquids using centrifugal force across multiple configurations from Westfalia, Alfa Laval, Broadbent, Bird, Heinkel, Krauss Maffei, Ferrum, and Humboldt Wedag.
IPP stocks centrifuges across three major groupings: basket centrifuges for batch filtration, disc bowl centrifuges for continuous clarification, and decanter and specialty centrifuges for high-solids and pharmaceutical applications.
IPP stocks basket centrifuges across auto discharge-bottom, manual discharge-top, and basket centrifuge parts configurations. Basket centrifuges use a perforated or solid basket spinning at high speed to separate solids from liquids through centrifugal filtration. Manufacturers include Broadbent, Ferrum, Krauss Maffei, Tolhurst, DeLaval, and Ellerwerk. Materials include stainless steel 316, 304, Hastelloy C-276 and C-4, carbon steel, and lined construction.
Stainless steel 316 auto discharge-bottom basket centrifuge with 1,200 mm (48 in) basket and gas-tight construction.
Stainless steel 316 manual discharge-top basket centrifuge with 1,250 mm (49.2 in) basket and plow action.
Stainless steel 316 auto discharge-bottom basket centrifuge with sanitary construction and 1,250 mm (49 in) basket.
IPP stocks disc bowl centrifuges from manufacturers including Alfa Laval, Westfalia, and GEA. Disc bowl centrifuges use a stack of conical discs spinning at high speed for continuous clarification and liquid-liquid separation. Materials include stainless steel 316, 316L, 304, austenitic grades, and aluminum. Maximum RPM ranges from 4,000 to 10,000.
Stainless steel 304 disc bowl centrifuge with 1,700 mm (66.9 in) bowl diameter and sanitary, CIP-ready construction.
Stainless steel austenitic disc bowl centrifuge with 66 L (17.4 gal) bowl volume and CIP-ready sanitary design.
Stainless steel 316 two-phase disc bowl centrifuge with 29 L (7.7 gal) bowl and high 29.5 m3/h (130 GPM) flow rate.
IPP stocks decanter and specialty centrifuges, including solid bowl-decanter centrifuges and inverting filter centrifuges. Decanter centrifuges use a horizontal cylindrical bowl with an internal screw conveyor for continuous solid-liquid separation of slurries. Inverting filter centrifuges provide automated, clean cake discharge for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications.
Stainless steel 304 solid bowl-decanter centrifuge with 900 mm (35.4 in) bowl diameter and 1,900 G-force.
Hastelloy C-4 inverting filter centrifuge with 600 mm (23.6 in) basket, washing capability, and controls.
Stainless steel 316 solid bowl-decanter centrifuge with 354 mm (13.9 in) bowl diameter.
