Abstract: A cyclone separator of the type utilized in the food processing industry for separating water vapor from a liquid foodstuff, typically tomato juice, comprises a vertical chamber into which the mixture of foodstuff and vapor is introduced tangentially. The vapor is gathered into the top end of a duct accommodated by the chamber, at least in part, and discharged from the opposite end of the duct into the chamber of a successive separator or into a condenser. The side wall of the chamber is tapered, widening marginally from top to bottom, so as to favor the separation of the liquid phase and its expulsion through a bottom outlet.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of fruit and vegetable juice and puree extractors in general. More precisely, it relates to a rotary-type extractor having at least two refinement stages arranged vertically and coaxially and being activated by a single, common motorization.
