A comprehensive range of decanters for water, food and energy industries

Solid-liquid separation is a common manufacturing process in countless industries, and Alfa Laval

has over 60 years of experience using decanter centrifuges to meet this requirement.

Their operation makes use of centrifugal force – the effect can be up to 4000 times greater

compared to using gravitational forces.

Alfa Laval uses high-grade stainless steel for all parts in contact with the solid-liquid separation

process to prevent corrosion. High-stress rotating components are machined from high-strength

centrifugally cast stainless steel – ensuring uniform, flaw-free castings and weld-free components

for maximum strength, reliability, and long service life. Wear-prone areas, such as the feed zone,

solids discharge output zone, bowl, and scroll, are protected by abrasion-resistant materials tailored

to each industrial process. Continual refinement of the seal technology used in Alfa Laval decanter

separators is ensured by our technological resources for superior performance.
