The Librixer Technology

With the Librixer technology it is possible to mechanically produce vegan protein, liberate metals from rocks, recycle glass fiber from wind turbines or reuse cotton fibers from textiles.

The Librixer Liberator

With the Librixer Liberator it is possible to mechanically produce vegan protein, liberate metals from rocks, recycle glass fiber from wind turbines or re-use cotton fibers from textiles.

  • A dry, fast and energy efficient material comminution process.
  • Makes the food production process more sustainable and efficient.
  • Liberates protein and starch from legumes.
  • Utilizes high frequency physics simultaneously to liberate and micronize materials.
  • Enabling different materials to be purposefully both used and reused.
  • You could call it magic – we call it a lean, clean anti-greenwashing machine.

Inside the machine

We liberate and micronize materials along natural boundaries with controllable gentle, multi-directional forces.
High-frequency pulsating pressure changes
Near particle collision bypass pressure pulses
Near surface contraction/expansion
High velocity directional changes

Bi-modal PSD diagram for oats

Traditional grinding techniques tend to normally result in a bell-shaped distribution curve. Our technology can, through release along natural boundaries, produce humped curves – which in turn facilitate mechanical sorting of composites where the different parts have different mechanical characteristics.

The diagram shows liberated, micronized and de-hulled oat kernels, where the pericarp's more flexible fiber structure commonly results in larger particles compared to the rest of the seed.
