Features and advantages of Rousselet Robatel Model BXP liquid / liquid centrifugal extractors:

• Direct motor coupling to the main shaft
• Short retention time and low liquid holdup
• Well adapted to batch and continuous operation
• Optional CIP systems for cGMP applications
• No bottom bearing in process area
• Efficient phase separation utilizing centrifugal force
• Unique all-plastic construction for corrosive applications
• Various agitator designs to accommodate a wide range of solvent systems
• Unattended operation
• High throughputs achieved in compact unit
• High extraction efficiency due to thorough mixing. Each BXP extractor nearly corresponds to a theoretical extraction stage.
• Can be connected in series to achieve the required number of stages. No interstage pumps are required.
• Rapid operational equilibrium
• Pharmaceutical grade polishing
• Internal recycling of heavy or light liquid phase
• Can serve as liquid / liquid separator and/or liquid / liquid extractor

These liquid / liquid centrifuges can be fabricated from a variety of alloys including 316L stainless steel, 904L stainless steel, Hastelloy C. Rousselet-Robatel can evaluate other materials of construction upon request. The machines can be installed on single or common frames, and the machines are connected with flexible interstage piping (extraction series).

Unique construction in which all process contact surf aces are fabricated from PVDF. This construction is advantageous if it is not possible to use metallic construction due to the corrosive nature of process materials. The machines can be installed on single or common frames, and are connected with flexible interstage piping (extraction series).

For performing feasibility tests using minimum quantities of material. These machines can be supplied as single stage units or close-coupled in series to perform multiple stages of extraction.
