Has anyone ever used an extruder, single or dual screw, for fractionation. I mean, use this kind of screw to try to extract liquid from a solid.

I'm trying to remove water from alfalfa (like grass), this alfalfa get 80% of water, and I could have the possibility to use and extruder in a laboratory.

Thanks

Most likely no. There would be no way to remove the remains from the barrel. Try a centrifuge.
