Niro PT
Freeze concentration is THE process when superior quality concentrates are
required and Niro PT is THE group that invented, commercialized and further
developed this leading edge technology over the last decades. No other
concentration processes can obtain the outstanding product qualities which are
achievable with the Niro PT technology. This is due to the very gentle
concentration at sub-zero temperatures where the product freshness is
maintained and biological degradation doesn’t occur.
Over 50 freeze
concentration plants have been put into operation throughout the world with
more than 100 NiroTM Purifiers in commercial service. Various configurations
with capacities ranging from 100 to 400,000 tons per year have been installed.
Starting in the early 1990's Niro PT began expanding into the melt
crystallization markets. In this application field Niro PT’s technology has
become synonym for drastically reduced energy consumption, low investment cost
and superior product quality. The flexibility of the process to split any feed
into two streams which qualities are readily adjustable along with its
outstanding energy efficiency, make this process the technology of choice for
many customers.
The innovation potential of the company is reflected in
over 20 patents which are currently held by the company.
