basket type centrifuge
,bag lifting centrifuge
The Bag Lifting Centrifuge is designed for batch solid-liquid separation, controlled washing, spin drying, and gentle discharge of creatine monohydrate crystals after crystallization.
It is suitable for creatine monohydrate production lines where mother liquor removal, crystal cleanliness, product retention, and hygienic handling are important. The crystal slurry is fed into the rotating basket, while liquid passes through the filter bag and basket perforations. The retained creatine monohydrate crystals form a cake inside the filter bag and are dewatered by centrifugal force.

1. Controlled Slurry Feeding
Creatine monohydrate crystal slurry enters the rotating basket through a controlled feed system.
The feeding rate is adjusted to support even crystal distribution and stable cake formation.
2. Mother Liquor Filtration
Under centrifugal force, mother liquor passes through the filter bag and basket perforations.
The filtrate can be collected for recycle, recovery, re-concentration, or further treatment.
3. Crystal Cake Formation
Creatine monohydrate crystals remain inside the filter bag and gradually form a filter cake.
The filter bag micron rating is selected according to crystal size, fines content, and required filtrate clarity.
4. Optional Cake Washing and Spin Drying
A controlled wash step can reduce residual mother liquor and soluble impurities on the crystal cake.
The basket then continues rotating to reduce free liquid before discharge.
5. Filter Bag Lifting Discharge
After the batch cycle is completed, the filter bag is lifted to discharge the dewatered creatine monohydrate crystals.
This discharge method avoids scraper contact and supports cleaner product removal.

Gentle Crystal Discharge
Filter bag lifting avoids direct scraper contact with the crystal cake and helps protect crystal integrity during discharge.
Lower Product Retention
The crystal cake is removed together with the filter bag, helping reduce valuable product remaining inside the basket.
Controlled Cake Washing
Optional washing can reduce mother liquor carryover before drying while supporting a cleaner final crystal product.
Hygienic Product Handling
Product-contact surfaces, filter bags, seals, and piping can be configured for food-grade or nutraceutical production requirements.
Mother Liquor Recovery Connection
Mother liquor and wash filtrate can be collected for recycle, recovery, or controlled handling according to the plant process.
For creatine monohydrate crystal separation, the following factors should be reviewed before model selection:
- Crystal size distribution and fines content
- Slurry solids concentration
- Mother liquor composition
- Required product purity
- Cake washing requirement
- Target cake moisture before drying
- Batch capacity and required production output
- Product-contact material requirement
- Cleaning and product changeover requirement
- Downstream dryer and packaging arrangement
Please provide:
- Creatine monohydrate crystal size and fines content
- Slurry solids concentration
- Mother liquor composition
- Separation temperature
- Required batch capacity
- Required production capacity per day
- Target cake moisture
- Cake washing requirement
- Available wash liquid
- Product-contact material requirement
- Cleaning or CIP requirement
- Downstream dryer, screen, conveyor, or packaging arrangement
- Explosion-proof requirement, if applicable
Is this centrifuge suitable for creatine monohydrate crystal separation?
Yes. It is suitable when creatine monohydrate crystals can form a stable and filterable cake inside the filter bag.
Why use bag lifting discharge instead of scraper discharge?
Bag lifting discharge avoids direct scraper contact with the crystal cake. It can reduce product retention and support gentler product removal.
Can creatine monohydrate crystals be washed inside the centrifuge?
Yes. An optional cake washing system can be added to reduce residual mother liquor. The wash liquid, temperature, volume, and washing time should be confirmed according to product quality requirements.
Can mother liquor and wash liquor be collected separately?
Yes. The system can be designed for separate collection of mother liquor and wash filtrate when different recycle or recovery routes are required.
Can the centrifuge connect directly to a dryer?
Yes. The discharged crystal cake can be transferred to a vacuum dryer, fluidized-bed dryer, tray dryer, screen, conveyor, storage bin, or packaging line.
