The Bag Lifting Centrifuge is designed for batch separation, washing, and recovery of vitamin C crystals after crystallization or recrystallization.
Vitamin C crystal slurry normally contains ascorbic acid crystals, mother liquor, soluble impurities, and fine-crystal fractions. The separation stage must remove mother liquor effectively while controlling product loss during washing and avoiding unnecessary exposure to unfavorable temperature, air, or prolonged handling conditions.
This configuration is suitable for batch vitamin C production, recrystallization recovery, and high-purity food ingredient or fine chemical crystal handling where clean collection and low product residue are important.

1. Crystal Slurry Feeding
Vitamin C crystal slurry enters the rotating basket lined with a suitable filter bag.
2. Mother Liquor Filtration
Mother liquor passes through the filter bag and is collected through the filtrate outlet.
3. Crystal Retention
Vitamin C crystals remain inside the filter bag while the liquid phase is discharged.
4. Cake Formation
The retained crystals gradually form a stable filter cake inside the bag.
5. Optional Cake Washing
Compatible wash liquid can be introduced to reduce residual mother liquor, soluble impurities, or color-bearing liquor retained between crystals.
6. Spin Drying
The basket continues rotating to reduce free liquid retained in the vitamin C crystal cake.
7. Machine Stop and Top Opening
After the programmed separation cycle is complete, the centrifuge stops and the top cover is opened.
8. Filter Bag Lifting and Product Collection
The filter bag containing the dewatered vitamin C crystals is lifted out and transferred to a collection bin, dryer feed station, screening section, or packaging process.

Contained Batch Collection
The filter bag retains the entire crystal cake during discharge, helping reduce product residue inside the basket and simplifying transfer to downstream equipment.
Controlled Mother Liquor Removal
Filtration and spin drying reduce residual mother liquor before the crystals enter drying or final product handling.
Optional Low-Loss Cake Washing
A controlled wash step can reduce residual soluble impurities while helping limit unnecessary vitamin C dissolution.
Cleaner Changeover Between Batches
The removable bag arrangement supports filter media replacement, cleaning, and product changeover between production campaigns.
Flexible Downstream Connection
The lifted bag or collection bin can be connected with vacuum dryers, tray dryers, fluid-bed dryers, screens, storage bins, or packaging systems.

Is a Bag Lifting Centrifuge suitable for vitamin C crystal separation?
Yes, provided the vitamin C crystals can form a stable and filterable cake. It is particularly suitable for batch recovery where clean product collection and low residual hold-up are important.
Can vitamin C crystals be washed inside the centrifuge?
Yes. An optional wash system can be configured to reduce residual mother liquor and soluble impurities. Wash-liquid conditions should be controlled carefully to limit unnecessary product dissolution.
Why use a filter bag for vitamin C crystal recovery?
The filter bag contains the crystal cake during removal. This supports cleaner batch collection, reduces product hold-up inside the basket, and simplifies transfer to downstream drying.
Can the mother liquor be recycled?
Yes. The separated mother liquor can be returned to crystallization, routed for recovery, or sent to further treatment depending on the overall process route.
Can the recovered vitamin C crystals go directly to a dryer?
Yes. The lifted bag or collected crystal cake can be transferred to a vacuum dryer, tray dryer, fluid-bed dryer, screen, storage bin, or packaging system according to the plant layout.
