Decanter Centrifuges

Separation takes place in a horizontal cylindrical bowl equipped with a scroll conveyor. The processing material is fed into the bowl through a stationary inlet tube and is smoothly accelerated in the accelerate chamber. Centrifugal forces cause instant sedimentation of the solids on the wall of the bowl. The conveyor rotates in the same direction as the bowl, but at a different speed, thus moving the solids towards the conical end of the bowl.

Features

The decanter centrifuge can be adjusted to suit individual requirements by varying:

1. Bowl speed to ensure the exact relative centrifugal force required for optimized separation.

2. Differential speed, for optimized balance between liquid clarity and solids discharge capacity.

3. Pond depth in the bowl for optimized balance between liquid clarity and solid dryness.
