CRYO-ELECTRIC SEPARATOR FOR SEPARATION OF ALLIOIDEAE VEGETABLES Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A23N15/08 B03C7/02 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended for usage in processing branches of food industry during peeling Allioideae vegetables. The cryo-electric separator contains a thermally insulated chamber, a feeder, a generating electrode (vertically mounted) and a grounding electrode, a receptacle for raw material components separated, a pipe-line for the cooling medium delivery using jets. The cryo-electric separator is also equipped with an additional generating and an additional grounding electrodes that are made in the form of wire elements, for example, needles attached to wires. The base generating electrode has moving dielectric guides. The guides ensure variation of the angle of ionised air flow supply into the space between the base generating electrode and the grounding one. Under the action of electric forces and wind resistance effect peel is separated and delivered into separate sumps.

EFFECT: invention ensures effective peeling of Allioideae vegetables.
