About Ifts
Applications

– Processing of all liquids in order to reduce their solid particle content (clarification) whether for use in material transformation processes (beverages, chemical products, pharmaceuticals, medical, mineral, mechanical…), in machines for transmitting or extracting energy (engine fuel & lubricants, hydraulic power fluids…) or after physical-chemical purification of industrial effluents and institutional waste.
– Processing of all liquid phase solids for concentration, washing, dehydration or drying purposes (sludge, pulp, minerals, chemical and pharmaceutical products…).
