BSTM presents a two-phase decanter specifically designed for extra virgin olive oil production. This unit delivers maximum yield, aroma, and polyphenol content—while maintaining stable temperatures and operating without any heat increase during extraction.
Application:
The ANTA Decanter Unit, developed by BSTM engineers, performs the phase separation in olive paste without applying additional water or mechanical stress. The system is designed to preserve the natural composition of the oil and minimize quality loss.
Advantages:
- Two-phase separation with no added water- Preserves oil quality and phenolic compounds- High capacity and continuous operation compatibility- Easy to maintain and clean- Energy-efficient high-speed separation
Design:
The decanter unit includes a horizontal cylindrical bowl and a conical screw conveyor rotating at differential speeds.
The high-speed rotating bowl creates centrifugal force that pushes the heavier solid olive pomace outward, while the lighter oil collects closer to the center.
Thanks to the optimized conical screw conveyor, solids are discharged with minimal moisture, keeping more oil in the liquid phase.
An electronic control panel allows real-time adjustment of speed differences between the bowl and the screw.
Operating Principle:
Olive paste is fed into the decanter bowl, which spins at high speed to generate centrifugal force. This separates the mixture into:
- Oil (lighter phase)- Olive pomace (heavier phase)
Since no water is added during the process, phenolic content is better preserved, and waste generation is minimized.
