Fluid Quip Ethanol Industry
CORN DEWATERING Before the first grind process step, the corn slurry from the destoning cyclone is dewatered by a gravity screen. Dewatering the corn slurry prior to milling reduces the hydraulic load on the grind mill and improves the milling efficiency. FluidQuip gravity screens with 54" long screen surfaces, and 3 mm slot openings are commonly used for corn dewatering.
