Products & Services
ANDRITZ pusher centrifuge ecoOne
The ecoOne technology is designed to reduce operating expenditures and ecological footprint. The most striking feature is the ecoOne motor design which guarantees maximum electrical efficiency and a reduction of power consumption of up to 20%.
The machine retains the “old” virtues of pusher centrifuges, such as reliability and washing efficiency, but at the same time raises energy efficiency, flexibility, and ease of maintenance to an unprecedented level and thus reduces operating costs and downtime significantly. And as if this weren’t enough, the machine weight, machine footprint, and ecological footprint of the centrifuge have been reduced substantially compared to previous generations.
ANDRITZ decanter centrifuge Censor ACZ
ANDRITZ has developed a unique product targeting the toughest plastics recycling challenges – the decanter centrifuge CENSOR ACZ. The system delivers consistently outstanding purity of the agglomerates that are the pre-product for regranulates. This is ensured by the innovative, high-performance sorting method, which is particularly suitable for plastic waste containing particles of different shapes and sizes.
The ANDRITZ decanter centrifuge CENSOR ACZ is at the heart of any efficient plastics recycling process – an all-in-one solution for separating, washing, and dewatering. Suitable for a wide range of applications, the system is easy to use whether the scale of your operation and is available as a stand alone machine or a fully customized, turnkey solution.
Krauss-Maffei dynamic crossflow filter DCF
The Krauss-Maffei dynamic crossflow filter DCF is suitable for the clarification of liquids and for concentrating and washing of solids in a broad variety of chemical and biochemical products. No matter if the valuable products are solids or liquids, the Krauss-Maffei dynamic crossflow filter DCF increases yield and product quality.
This technology is combined with advanced automation and digitalization solutions to optimize efficiency and maximize profit.
ANDRITZ screen scroll centrifuge HX
Ideally suitable for bulk chemicals, agrochemicals, food, and much more, this new generation of screen scroll centrifuges features an express cartridge for maximum uptime and easy maintenance, an innovative feeding system to reduce wear and particle attrition, as well as a modular scroll design for efficient and convenient maintenance. In short – the ANDRITZ screen scroll centrifuge HX enables reliable and uninterrupted operation, with minimum downtime and maximum ease of maintenance. The minimum requirements for screen scroll centrifuges are median particle diameter d50 >100 µm and a feed solids concentration >10%.
ANDRITZ fluid bed dryers
With its experienced and target-oriented development of process solutions in their own pilot plants, we are able to provide you with the optimum solution for your process. No matter whether the best type of fluid bed is static, vibrating, high-temperature, or a unit with built-in heat exchangers, feeding or processing devices: we have them all and will find the best set-up for your particular requirements. A wide variety of design features, such as air distribution plates and different types of heat exchangers, enables us to put together the ideal fluid bed for your application.
ANDRITZ helix dryer
The ANDRITZ helix dryer is used for chemical batch applications. It uses a central, top-driven helical mixer in a conical vessel, enabling smooth and efficient mixing of the dry material. Even sticky products can be processed due to the special design of the mixing screw. Up to 200 liter dryers, the customer is able to choose stationary or mobile design, which offers a big flexibility and efficiently in production.
ANDRITZ paddle dryer
The ANDRITZ Gouda paddle dryer is a technology that has a lot to offer. It is used for drying sewage sludge or for heat treatment of powders, granulates or pasty products in a continuous chemical drying process. The dryers are designed for a long and continuous life cycle and handle products with the required care – even toxic materials.
ANDRITZ helix dryer GHD LIB for battery recycling
We have developed a helix dryer specifically designed for lithium-ion battery recycling. The system efficiently removes low- and high-boiling solvents from heterogeneous shredded materials, enabling high black mass purity and safe, stable operation.
Based on proven contact dryer technology, the solution uses indirect heating under vacuum in an inert, closed-loop environment to ensure reliable processing of variable feed materials. Optimized heat transfer, uniform mixing, and integrated filtration deliver high evaporation efficiency, minimal product loss, and flexible batch operation across different battery chemistries.
