Alfa Laval offers a range of solutions that enhance efficiency and ensure solid reliability while keeping total lifecycle costs down. Our goal is to incorporate ongoing innovations in separation technology to continuously improve our customers' daily operations. We sincerely appreciate our customers for their continued support and for being a source of inspiration in our innovative processes. The following items can be viewed in videos on our website: ■ Bactofuge – A positive evaluation from the factory manager of BASF's plant in Germany, a global chemical manufacturer. ■ UniDisc – Revolutionizing the concept of discs by allowing 30% more centrifugal sedimentation area in the same bowl size. ■ Further evolution of hermetic design – Achieving high separation performance and energy savings, taking it to a new dimension with eDrive / eMotion. ■ Centrifuges entering the era of CBM (condition-based maintenance) – Online monitoring of centrifuges with ConditionAlert.

The disk-type centrifuge achieves an extensive separation sedimentation area of over 10,000 m² with a footprint of just 1 m² by stacking conical (umbrella-shaped) disks (separation plates) that open downward around a rotating axis. This allows for large-scale and high-speed separation in a small space. Hundreds of disks are stacked with a gap of 0.5 mm, and between the disks, centrifugal forces of 5,000 to 15,000 G are applied, allowing separation to be completed instantaneously. Continuous solid/liquid and liquid/liquid separation is possible for particle sizes down to 0.1 microns and specific gravity differences of up to 2%. 【Advantages】 ● Capable of solid/liquid, liquid/liquid, and liquid/liquid/solid separation ● Maximum centrifugal force of 15,000 G ● Particles down to 0.1 microns can be separated without filter aids or coagulants ● Small retention volume allows for quick switching of processing liquids or halting processing ● Automation is extremely simple, reducing labor costs ● Sealed operation is possible when exposure to air is not allowed ● Separation occurs instantaneously, minimizing changes in the processing liquid ● Fully continuous operation allows for long hours of unmanned operation ● Explosion-proof specifications are available ● Extremely small installation space *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

"CultureOne" is a single-use disk-type centrifuge designed for biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes. With its hermetic design (completely sealed), it gently processes culture media, reducing cell lysis. The "CultureOne Primo," boasting a product recovery rate of up to 99%, is a GMP-compliant solution suitable for the recovery of small batches of cell cultures. Additionally, we also offer the "CultureOne Maxi," capable of handling large volumes. 【Features】 ■ Easily integrated single-use Spincert (rotating body) and tube kit ■ No need for flocculants or filtration aids ■ Efficient separation even with high-concentration culture media ■ Continuous processing in a steady state for the entire batch ■ Automation available using control equipment from Siemens, Allen-Bradley, and DeltaV ■ Low noise level below 67dB (A) ■ Intuitive interface for easy understanding of the overall process *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
