Applicability of the Gencline Process

Gencline's obstacle based separation technology can be used in a broad range of applications. In general it is applicable to cell separation, particulate separation, stratification, concentration, purification and product recovery. The Gencline process is based on unique patented technologies that can be implemented with solid-liquid and solid- gas separations. In addition to versatility, the method has distinct advantages over other conventional methods.

While Gencline's processes can be applied to a very broad range of applications, it is not always the best solution. In general, Gencline's is not practical where low cost processes provide acceptable results. The true advantage lies in applications where conventional processes are expensive, provide marginal results, or are hampered by the shortcomings of the conventional methods.
