Experience the benefits of BB and BM series, advanced technology for bactofuge milk processing

  • Alfa Laval’s unique bottom-fed Hermetic Design™ provides superior skimming efficiency and maintains premium product quality
  • The bottom-fed design reduces shear forces for gentle product treatment that preserves the size of the fat globules
  • Hermetic seals on inlet and outlet prevent oxidation and reduce the foaming of the milk
  • Easy adaptation to process conditions provides increased production flexibility and efficient CIP
  • Energy savings of up to 60% thanks to the Hermetic Design™, reaching up to 75% when combined with eMotion™

Alfa Laval sets the market standard with the Bactofuge® design

The Alfa Laval BB and BM series separators excel in bactofuge milk applications, such as cheese production, milk and cream processing, and whey, casein, and lactose processing. They are also ideal for yoghurt and cultured milk production, ensuring high-quality, consistent results. For installations with particularly high demands, two or more units can be installed in series.

Hermetic Design ™  

Alfa Laval unique Hermetic Design™ ensures gentle and efficient dairy production. By maintaining the size of fat globules and preventing milk foaming, it guarantees consistent product standardization and exceptional quality. The airtight bowl enhances fluid dynamics, reducing power consumption by up to 60% compared to non-hermetic alternatives.

eMotion™ 

Alfa Laval eMotion™ is a unique energy-saving module, available as an add-on for many of Alfa Laval’s dairy separators. By creating a near-vacuum around the separator bowl, eMotion™ reduces air friction enough to improve energy efficiency by up to 75% when combined with Hermetic Design™. The additional benefits of eMotion™ include reduced noise levels, lower cooling requirements, and improved cleanability.

Bactofuge®

The BB and BM series feature our patented Bactofuge® technology, designed for pre-treating cheese milk and removing butter acid spores. They also improve the quality of milk powders, consumption milk, and cream by eliminating aerobic spores like Bacillus cereus. With separation efficiency reaching up to 99%, Bactofuge® ensures gentle and efficient processing of high-solids broths, resulting in higher yield and minimal clogging. It preserves the quality of the solids stream and allows flexible, controlled operation.

eDrive™ 

The Alfa Laval eDrive™ direct drive system provides an energy-efficient separator drive that has fewer moving parts compared to traditional gear- or belt-drive systems. Unlike most gear-drive systems with up to three shafts, the eDrive™ direct-drive motor has just one shaft. That translates into highly robust operation, more uptime, longer intervals between service, better energy efficiency, and reduced costs.

UniDisc™ 

The Alfa Laval UniDisc™ boosts separation capacity by up to 30% with a hygienic, easy-to-clean design. Its built-in spacers allow more discs per stack, increasing surface area and enhancing performance or flow capacity. 

Saving energy, cutting costs

Alfa Laval separators with Hermetic Design are the most energy-efficient on the market. When our unique eMotion technology is added, minimized air friction brings additional power reduction. Combined, our unique design and technologies can deliver up to 75% energy reduction compared to non-hermetic alternatives on the market.


Cutting back on water use

Alfa Laval dairy separators are self-cleaning. Thanks to Hermetic Design™ and our innovative UniDisc™ disc stack, cleaning is faster and uses less water and CIP liquid than traditional separators. Additional water savings can be made with eMotion™. By removing air around the separator bowl, eMotion™ reduces friction. Cutting the amount of water needed to cool the separator during operation.
