Turbex extractor, disruptive extraction process

Disruptive extraction process for optimized valorization of functional nutrients with Turbex extractor

ANDRITZ Turbex operating principle

Turn your waste into a real gold mine with ANDRITZ Turbex disruptive extraction process

Turbex is a patented solid/liquid extractor based on a sequence of rotors and stators causing thousands of events per second (turbulence, shearing, and cavitation), in order to:

Obtain a higher yield in a shorter processing time
Provide an extraction process whose performance is unequalled
Improve product quality (as no oxidation is possible)
Generate additional revenue by converting by-products into valuable food ingredients and nutrition supplements

Your benefits

Highest quality of polyphenols and proteins due to low extraction temperature and avoiding oxidation
Faster extraction than in the conventional process due to cavitation, resulting in more product in a shorter time
Up to 50% higher yield assisted by a counter-current process for better profitability
Reduced energy consumption by up to 30% compared to traditional processes which in turn leads to a faster return on investment
