How it works
The Alfa Laval Centriflow insect systems are the core of the insect processing system, which is based on Alfa Laval’s proven core equipment. Wet rendering involves these steps:
- Raw material preparation: pre-cutting larvae to improve pumpability, heating and separation efficiency
- Heating: direct heating via steam injection into a melting tube or indirect heating using Alfa Laval Contherm scraped surface heat exchanger
- Separation in 3 phase decanter: dewatering the heated raw material into solids, stick water and lipids stream by means of a three-phase decanter
- Purification of lipids: purification the lipids fraction by means of centrifugal separation
- Concentration of stick water: Removal of water from the stick water and recovery of the water-soluble protein fraction using the Alfa Laval AlfaVapTM plate evaporator
- Drying and meal handling: Final dewatering of the decanter solids and stick water concentrate into the high quality insect protein meal
