Hiller GmbH applications

Power generation: To ensure the ability to reliably cover humanity`s growing energy needs for the future, in energy generation the focus is increasingly not only on efficiency but also on sustainability and environmental friendliness, and research is being carried out for future-proof solutions. This means that the entire industry sector is undergoing continuous change, continuously creating new potential applications for such a versatile machine as the decanter. Hiller high performance decanters have been successfully in use in the energy sector for over 45 years. Many tasks for our decanters in this field relate to the dewatering of various residues, but they also play a key role in the generation of the raw materials.

Environmental technology in the communal and industrial sectors: Environmental issues, such as sewage treatment, handling raw materials as well as the utilisation of renewable energy sources and the avoidance of harmful emissions, are becoming ever more pressing. Hiller has taken on this challenge and for 45 years has been developing decanters for the field of environmental technology. These are used for many applications, including dewatering or thickening sludge, preparing drinking water and exploiting renewable energy sources.

Mineral industry: Centrifuges are used all over the world to prepare mineral suspensions. Hiller decanters are ideally suited to hydrometallic processes, such the extraction of gold, silver or nickel. The processing of industrial minerals such as calcium carbonate, kaolin or titanium dioxide is also optimally carried out using Hiller technology. The dewatering and classification of mineral sludges is a complex issue, and requires special designs. Hiller high performance decanters have been developed and optimised rigorously for these applications.
