VDT: Vortex Dehydration Technology, LLC
|
Vortex Dehydration Technology, LLC is a cutting edge company focused on integrating Frank Polifka's “Windhexe” into the meat processing industry. It is our goal to meet the challenging needs of recovering agricultural and industrial byproducts and developing environmentally friendly uses for them.
The Original “Windhexe”
"Tornado in a Can"
Multiply the images of the most destructive tornado you have ever seen and imagine the force controlled in a tornado-shaped container so products can be fed into it. Frank Polifka, a Kansas farmer, didn't just imagine it, he did it. Over a 15 year period he achieved some remarkable results. Some even seemed to defy some laws of physics, and the "Windhexe" was discovered.
Almost everything that enters the chamber is instantly atomized to micron sizes. Products that are high in moisture, even molecularly bound, are processed and dried economically. Since his early tests, products such as recycled concrete, glass, stone, aluminum cans, coal, vegetables, meats and many other products have been tested, instantly converting them to powder.
VDT Systems are available today to process D.A.F, poultry, swine, cattle, and fish. These are quoted on a case by case basis.
The Windhexe harnesses one of the most destructive forces of nature, a Tornado. The device has no internal moving parts and only air is used to provide the destructive energy. The resultant forces within convert most any product into a fine powder with negligible moisture within. The swirling air dehydrates the material using a combination of mechanical and evaporative energy and is therefore more efficient than any thermal drying device. The addition of Alfa Laval mechanical separation devices are used to further system superiority by recovering high quality oil and removing moisture prior to final processing in the Windhexe. The result is a system strategically designed for the Meat Byproduct Processing Industry that produces quality products that can not be matched by any other technique.
