The ZWAG® Nutsche Dryer - Precise Filtration and Drying for the Highest Demands
The ZWAG® Nutsche Dryer is a technically advanced filtration and drying system based on the principle of an agitated nutsche filter. It has been specifically developed for demanding processes in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries.
Thanks to its closed design, integrated agitator technology, and the ability to perform pressure-assisted filtration as well as vacuum-supported drying, the ZWAG® Nutsche Dryer meets the highest standards in terms of product yield, process safety, and cleanability.
It is particularly suitable for applications involving sensitive, valuable, or hard-to-filter products, and is available in various sizes and configurations – tailored to the individual requirements of modern production facilities.
What is a ZWAG® Nutsche Dryer used?
- Solid-liquid separation: Primarily for delicate or valuable products where the filter cake must not be damaged.
- Sterile processes: In the pharmaceutical industry, where aseptic conditions are required.
- Solvent recovery: When filtering products from solvents.
- Crystallization: After crystallization processes to separate solid crystals from the mother liquor.
- Drying: Some ZWAG® Nutsche filters are designed not only for filtration but also for direct drying (e.g., via vacuum drying or heated walls).
