High-Performance Decanter Technology for Global Rendering Plants

Implemented at facilities operated by leading global seafood and feed ingredient producers with some of the highest production capacities in their field, this project aims to support high-throughput fishmeal and fish oil production lines with uninterrupted operation and high efficiency.

Process Flow and Our Critical Engineering Role

Fishmeal and fish oil production (rendering) processes require fast, precise, high-capacity separation solutions to preserve raw material freshness and protein content.

Our advanced decanter centrifuge technology plays a critical role at key stages throughout the process, from initial processing to the final product:

Pre-Treatment Stage: At the plant inlet, the system reduces the overall process load by pre-separating fish conveyed with seawater, removing blood, scales, and organic waste.

Stickwater Processing: Following the cooking stage, the resulting organic liquid contains valuable proteins and oils. Our technology delivers high separation precision in processing this stream, enabling efficient recovery of these valuable components.

Key Deliverables and Added Value

Maximum Protein Recovery: Solid protein was separated from the organic liquid generated after cooking, achieving maximum recovery and dryness before being transferred to the dryer. This maximized the production of high-quality, high-value fishmeal for the animal feed industry.

High Oil Separation Efficiency: The separated liquid phase was brought to the optimum level of clarification and phase quality for the subsequent recovery of valuable fish oil.

Heavy-Duty Performance Under Challenging Conditions: Designed to withstand high salinity, heavy organic loads, and continuous 24/7 operation, the system enabled reliable, uninterrupted performance across high-throughput production lines.
