Bag Lifting Centrifuge is a batch-type top discharge separation system designed for high-purity, heat-sensitive and contamination-sensitive materials.
It is widely used in antibiotic intermediate separation, where strict cleanliness, low residue, and crystal integrity are required.
The lifting bag discharge system allows gentle cake removal without mechanical scraping, reducing crystal damage and ensuring consistent product quality in pharmaceutical production.
This equipment is specially designed for pharmaceutical and fine chemical batch processes, including:
- Antibiotic intermediate crystal separation
- Pharmaceutical API wet crystal dewatering
- Fermentation broth solid-liquid separation
- High-purity fine chemical crystallization
- Sterile food additive purification
- Vitamin and bio-chemical intermediate processing
- Amino acid crystal recovery
- High-value small batch pharmaceutical production
- Cleanroom GMP production line separation
- Low-residue sensitive material handling
Antibiotic intermediates typically present the following challenges:
- Sensitive to contamination and metal ion residues
- Crystals easily damaged by high shear force
- Strict GMP cleaning requirements (CIP/SIP)
- High purity requirements after centrifugation
- Batch variability in crystal size distribution
- Need for complete mother liquor removal
Conventional discharge systems often cause:
- Crystal breakage
- Cross-contamination
- Incomplete discharge
- Cleaning difficulties
Our Bag Lifting Centrifuge provides a gentle and controlled batch separation solution:
1. Gentle Discharge System
The filter bag lifting design ensures no scraping damage, protecting fragile antibiotic crystals.
2. High Purity Separation
Optimized basket structure improves mother liquor removal efficiency, reducing residual moisture.
3. GMP-Compatible Design
- Clean weld structure
- No dead corners
- Optional CIP / SIP system
- Easy disassembly for validation
4. Stable Batch Operation
Each cycle is fully controllable:
- Feeding
- Filtration
- Washing
- Dewatering
- Bag lifting discharge
How the Bag Lifting Centrifuge Works in Antibiotic Intermediate Separation
Filter Cloth Installation → Slurry Feeding → Gentle Basket Filtration → Crystal Cake Formation → Optional Washing → Controlled Dewatering → Bag Lifting Discharge → Collection → Cleaning
During operation, antibiotic intermediate slurry is fed into the rotating basket under closed conditions.
Under centrifugal force, solvent passes through the filter medium while sensitive antibiotic crystals are retained and gently formed into cake, avoiding excessive shear or breakage.
After optional washing and final dewatering, the bag lifting system enables soft discharge, ensuring minimal crystal damage and maintaining high product purity suitable for pharmaceutical applications.
