Description
Decanter Centrifuge for Vegetable Protein Recovery
Decanter Centrifuge for Vegetable Protein Recovery
Description

The Decanter Centrifuge for Vegetable Protein Recovery is designed for continuous solid-liquid separation in plant-based protein production, including soybean protein, pea protein, wheat protein, and other vegetable protein extraction processes.

It efficiently separates protein-rich solids from process liquids, improving protein recovery rate, reducing product loss, and supporting stable operation in protein extraction and concentration systems.


Typical Applications
  • Soy protein extraction residue separation
  • Pea protein slurry concentration
  • Vegetable protein isolate production
  • Plant-based protein extraction
  • Protein-rich slurry dewatering
  • Starch and protein separation processes
  • Fermentation-based protein recovery
  • Process liquid clarification

Vegetable Protein Recovery Challenges

Fine Protein Particles

Protein particles are often small and difficult to separate completely, requiring efficient centrifugal force and optimized operating parameters.

High Moisture Content

Protein slurry usually contains a large amount of water, increasing drying and concentration costs.

Product Loss Risk

Poor separation performance may result in protein loss with discharged liquid.

Variable Feed Conditions

Protein slurry concentration and viscosity may change during production, requiring flexible equipment adjustment.

Food Processing Requirements

Equipment needs suitable materials, hygienic design, and reliable continuous operation.

How the Decanter Centrifuge Works

1. Protein Slurry Feeding

Vegetable protein slurry containing suspended protein particles enters the rotating bowl through a controlled feeding system.

2. Protein Solid Sedimentation

Under centrifugal force, protein particles move toward the bowl wall and form a concentrated solids layer.

3. Liquid Clarification

Separated liquid remains in the inner liquid zone and moves toward the clarified liquid area.

4. Protein Solids Conveying

The scroll continuously transports concentrated protein solids toward the discharge end.

5. Continuous Recovery

Protein-rich solids and clarified liquid are continuously separated for recovery or further processing.
