Alfa Laval TopStream

Alfa Laval TopStream™ / Bactofuge™ technology is a method for continuous solids discharge used when processing products with high solids contents. It offers higher separation output while simultaneously making it possible to preserve the quality of discharged solids for later reuse. This innovative, continuous solids discharge method is critical in food processing, for products such as, yeast, fruit pulp and dairy products. For fruit juices, TopStream provides stable process performance while ensuring a dry pulp stream coming out of the separator and can be reused. In pharma industry gentle solids handling keeps cell lyses to a minimum.
