  • Why choose Flottweg decanters?
  • Flottweg is the global leader in the manufacture of industrial centrifuges. We are specialists in separation technology, and have been an expert and reliable partner for refining seed oil and press oil over many decades. Flottweg decanters are available in an extremely wide range of versions - the optimum solution for every process.
  • Are Flottweg Decanter centrifuges suitable for press oil?
  • Flottweg Decanter Centrifuges are suitable for any kind of press oil. All product-wetted parts are made from stainless steel. The Simp Drive® regulates the differential speed between the decanter bowl and decanter scroll depending on the prevailing scroll torque.
  • Why do you need a press oil decanter?
  • It is essential to use the decanter for optimum press oil refinement. Only by refining the press oil using the decanter is it possible to obtain a high yield of high-quality, pure oil. Seed oil can also be refined in this way. Often, hot water is added as a means of optimising the refining of seed oil and press oil.
  • How does a Flottweg tricanter® work?
  • The Flottweg Tricanter® performs a 3-phase separation; i.e., the simultaneous separation of two immiscible liquids of different densities and one solid phase, provided that the solid phase is the heaviest phase. The main difference from a decanter is the separate discharge of the two liquid phases.
  • How is press oil refined?
  • The oil seed is processed with the screw press. The resulting press oil has a significant proportion of solids. It is essential to use the decanter for optimum press oil refinement. Only by refining the press oil using the decanter is it possible to obtain a high yield of high-quality, pure oil. Seed oil can also be refined in this way.
  • What is a Flottweg sedicanter® used for?
  • The Flottweg Sedicanter® is used for the separation of solids from liquids when the solids form a soft to flowable sediment. The Sedicanter® is used in cases where the solids are too fine to be processed in a normal decanter and the sediment cannot be easily discharged from the decanter due to its soft consistency.
