  • A decanter centrifuge is a sophisticated device engineered to separate solids from liquids in a mixture, functioning as a continuous process.
  • By feeding the mixture into the centrifuge, centrifugal forces generated by its spinning mechanism expertly separate solids from liquids.
  • The resultant separated solids and liquids are then efficiently discharged through separate outlets, ensuring streamlined operation.
  • Decanter centrifuges are integral across diverse industries, including chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing, and environmental engineering sectors.
  • These centrifuges are especially valuable for separating solids that are exceedingly fine or dense, challenging for other methods such as sedimentation or filtration.
  • They also excel in dewatering sludge and separating emulsions, showcasing their versatility.
  • Renowned for their high efficiency, low maintenance demands, and capability to process large volumes, decanter centrifuges are an industry staple.
  • Working Principle of Decanter Centrifuges

    Decanter centrifuges operate on the principle of separation via buoyancy, enhanced by continuous spinning, resulting in g-forces between 1000 to 4000 G's. This reduces settling time from hours to mere seconds, delivering rapid and efficient separation.

    A decanter acts as a sedimentation tank revolving around an axis. Solid particles, denser than liquid, migrate to the bottom, forming sediment. In a centrifuge, centrifugal acceleration expedites this process, allowing for swift and efficient separation.

Parameters and influencing factors of the separation process

1. Feed, throughput, and dwell time

The medium is channeled into the infeed chamber of the scroll, accelerating as it enters. Throughput determines the residence time, affecting separation results.

2. Acceleration

Inside the decanter bowl, the separating medium reaches peak speed, allowing solids to settle along the bowl's inner surface, defined by its cylindrical or conical shape.

3. Differential velocity

A gear mechanism creates a speed differential between the bowl and the scroll, influencing the quantity of solids expelled during the outfeed process.

4. Volumetric filling / Weir discs or overflow weir

Pond depth / Weir discs

In a decanter centrifuge, clarified liquid travels to the cylindrical end, exiting through the bowl cover's perforations. Adjustable weir discs precisely set the bowl's pond depth and filling volume.

What is the Difference Between Centrifuge and Decanter?

A centrifuge uses centrifugal force to separate solids from liquids or components of a mixture based on density. A decanter centrifuge specializes in continuously separating solids and liquids.

Several key differences distinguish general centrifuges from decanter centrifuges:

  1. Continuous Operation: Decanter centrifuges are designed for continuous operation, processing materials without interruption, unlike batch centrifuges, which handle materials in set quantities.
  1. Scroll: Decanter centrifuges feature an innovative scroll, a precisely engineered helical screw that is mounted within the bowl and rotates at a marginally slower pace than the bowl itself. As the scroll gently propels solids towards the outer walls of the bowl, the powerful centrifugal force takes over, efficiently separating solids from liquids. Unlike other centrifuge models, decanter centrifuges offer this unique scroll or may employ a different conveyor mechanism.
  2. Solids discharge: Decanter centrifuges come equipped with a strategically placed solids discharge port on the outer wall of the bowl, specifically designed for seamless removal of separated solids. While other centrifuge variants might deploy alternative methods for solids discharge, the decanter's efficient system sets it apart.
  3. Applications: Renowned for their primary role in precise solid-liquid separation, decanter centrifuges stand out in their ability to handle such processes continuously. In contrast, other centrifuge types may cater to a broader array of tasks, such as density-based separation of mixture components or intricate liquid purification.
Overall, decanter centrifuges are distinctly engineered for the continuous separation of solids from liquids, setting them apart with specialized designs tailored for dedicated applications. Alternative centrifuge models may exhibit varied features and serve diverse functions.
