Product Description

Reliable SS304 Chemical Centrifuge for Efficient Filtration Processes
A decanter centrifuge is a sophisticated type of centrifuge that is engineered to efficiently separate solids from liquids within a mixture.
This process involves the utilization of centrifugal force to effectively segregate the solid components from the liquid, ensuring a clear and precise separation.. It operates continuously, leveraging powerful centrifugal force to divide the components. As the mixture is introduced into the centrifuge, the solid particles are meticulously separated from the liquid by the intense force generated by the centrifuge's rapid spinning.

For the task of separating solid/liquid mixtures with a notably high solids content, decanter centrifuges offer unparalleled efficiency. These innovative solid-shell scroll centrifuges or decanters function seamlessly and continuously, unlike traditional chamber filter presses. They excel at using robust centrifugal forces to split finely distributed solid particles from suspensions with precision.

Decanters boast versatility, proving invaluable across a multitude of global industries. These centrifuges are expertly tailored to meet the specific demands of each application, from sludge dewatering, fine classification, wet classification, to the precise sorting of solids.

To achieve the best possible results, solid bowl decanter centrifuges must be meticulously engineered to fit the unique needs of each separation process.

What is Decanter centrifuge?

  • A decanter centrifuge is a specialized centrifuge designed to separate solids from liquids in a mixture. This continuous process uses centrifugal force to efficiently divide the two components.
  • The mixture is methodically fed into the centrifuge, where the rapid spinning generates centrifugal force, effectively separating solids from liquids.
  • Upon separation, the distinct solids and liquids are expelled from the centrifuge through separate outlets, ensuring a clean and efficient process.
  • Decanter centrifuges find their application across a vast array of industries, from chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing to environmental engineering.
  • They are particularly adept at separating solids that are too fine or dense for traditional methods, such as sedimentation or filtration.
  • In addition, decanter centrifuges are instrumental in dewatering sludge and effectively separating emulsions.
  • Renowned for their high efficiency, minimal maintenance needs, and capacity to manage large material volumes, they stand out in the industry.
  • Working Principle of Decanter Centrifuges

    A decanter centrifuge leverages the principle of separation via buoyancy. Components with higher density naturally descend to the bottom, while lighter ones rise. Continuous spinning accelerates settling velocity, creating substantial g-forces between 1000 to 4000 Gs, significantly reducing settling time. What previously took hours can now be achieved in mere seconds, offering faster, more controlled results.

    Imagine a decanter as a sedimentation tank rotated around its axis. Heavy solid particles migrate to the bottom due to gravity, forming sediment. In a centrifuge, centrifugal acceleration separates the solid and liquid phases more efficiently. Solid particles, denser and heavier, move outwards in the centrifuge's bowl, forming sediment along the inner wall. This method, with centrifugal forces of approximately 3000 g, far exceeds the efficiency of gravitational separation.
    Two-phase decanter centrifuge parameters enable effective separation of solid and liquid phases with precision.

    With the remarkable efficiency of a 3-phase decanter centrifuge, the simultaneous separation of three distinct phases is seamlessly achievable in a single operation. Take, for instance, the separation of oil and water, substances that inherently resist blending due to their distinct densities. In this process, the oil and water are expertly divided from a solid phase, with water elegantly gathering between the oil and solid layers. This sophisticated separation method allows for the effortless extraction of the two liquids from the decanter. Much like in a 2-phase separation, the solids are strategically transported via the scroll to the designated discharge outlets, ensuring a smooth and precise operation.

    The versatile three-phase separation technology is pivotal in numerous industries. Its applications are particularly significant in the production of consumable oils such as olive oil, the meticulous processing of oil sludge, and the innovative creation of biodiesel. This powerful method stands as a cornerstone for efficiency and precision in these diverse fields and beyond.

Why is it called a decanter?

In the fascinating world of engineering, the term "decanter" often conjures images of a sophisticated container with a broad base and slender neck, typically associated with the elegant serving and storing of wine. Similarly, in the realm of decanter centrifuges, this term is inspired by the unique shape of the centrifuge bowl, mirroring a wine decanter's graceful form. The bowl, a meticulously designed cylindrical vessel with a wide base tapering into a narrow neck, operates on a horizontal axis, epitomizing the blend of form and function for optimal performance.
The intriguing use of the term "decanter" for centrifuges likely finds its origins in their primary function—efficiently separating liquids of varying densities, akin to the wine and sediment separation process. Here, the centrifuge bowl's wine decanter-like shape plays a pivotal role in distinguishing clear liquid (similar to wine) from sediments (or lees), demonstrating a synergy between design and application that enhances the filtration process, much like preserving the clarity and purity of fine wine.
