Mechanical Foam Breaker — DP Series

A centrifugal defoaming machine that breaks foam without chemicals — no antifoam agents, no residue.

The DP Series Mechanical Foam Breaker destroys foam by centrifugal force — separating liquid from gas and returning the product to the tank. No anti-foam agents, no residue, no burden on downstream separation. Built for fermentation, wastewater, food & beverage and chemical processes.

Where it works

Foam is a problem in every industry — one machine solves it

These are real foam conditions from operating plants. Wherever you see a stable foam blanket, the DP Series mechanical foam breaker replaces chemical defoamers — no dosing, no residue, no consumables.

How it works

Three steps of mechanical foam breaking

STEP 01

Foam is drawn in

Foam is drawn into the breaking chamber, where centrifugal force destroys the bubbles mechanically.

STEP 02

Liquid is separated and returned

Liquid and gas separate inside the chamber; the recovered liquid returns to the vessel.

STEP 03

No chemicals added

No anti-foam chemicals, no chemical residue, no burden on downstream separation.

Why mechanical

Why stop using chemical defoamers

No chemicals in your process

Physical foam breaking removes the need for anti-foam agents, so nothing foreign enters your product or your downstream separation step.

Product stays in the tank

Foam is destroyed and the liquid returns to the vessel — less carry-over, less loss, more stable yields.

Built for sanitary duty

316L stainless wetted parts, mirror-polished surfaces and Ra < 0.5 µm inside finishing for food, beverage and pharma-adjacent processes.
