Product Description

FISH PROCESSING DECANTER CENTRIFUGE FISH OIL EXTRACTION AND FISH MEAL PRODUCTION

The worldwide demand for fish products such as salmon filet is continuously increasing and so is the number of fish farms and fish processing plants. In the same way waste which has to be disposed of as well as the quantity of fish by-products are all the time increasing.

Due to the high costs for waste disposal the idea was born to recover high quality oil from these by-products instead of disposing of them. In order to achieve high market prizes for fish or fish oil, highest quality standards on raw material and processing equipment is requested. It is obvious that only fresh by-products right after slaughtering can be used as raw material in order to obtain high final product quality.

The amount destined for human consumption is divided into two: One half is sold live or fresh while the other half is processed into conven-ience sea-food products, marinated or canned. Approximately 50% of the raw material to be processed for seafood is edible. This means that a quarter of the production destined for human consumption is not useable for direct human con-sumption. A part of this portion is used for elab-orated food products such as fish soup, sauces, flavors etc., whereas the rest ends up as residu-als. In total, each year there are globally approx. 50 million tons of residuals from fish production and processing which could either be a hazard when carelessly discarded into the environment or a source of additional profit when converted into something of value, e.g., fish oil and fish meal for feed, as well as for industrial use.The Shenzhou Tricanter centrifuge process is considered to be the standard fish meal process and was developed to recover fish meal and fish oil from whole fish or from residuals such as heads, fins, bones, etc. This procedure is usually applied in large scale fish filleting plants which process more than 8 tons per hour. In South America it is the most used process to produce fish meal and fish oil from anchoveta. In the first process stage the raw material is heated so that it disintegrates and releases the fish oil. After cooking, the material passes through a screening stage to be separated into a protein-rich solid phase and a liquid phase containing oil, water and fine solids. Next, the solids phase from the screens is separated further via presses into a press cake and a liquid phase. Finally the press cake is dried to obtain the fish meal.
The liquid phase from the screening and pressing stages is separated into fish oil, stick water and solids. For this separation there are two options: A two-stage separation where a clarifying decanter separates the solid material followed by a disk stack centrifuge to skim the fish oil from the stick water. In contrast, the Shenzhou Tricanter enables this 3-phase separation in one single stage.
Afterwards, the stick water is concentrated into a syrupy consistency through evaporation. This syrup and the solids cake from the Decanter/Tricanter are mixed together with the press cake and thermally dried.

Decanter centrifuges process characteristics
The separation process in a decanter centrifuge relies on a few process characteristics such as centrifugal force or G-force,sedimentation rate and separating factor, differential speed between the conveyor and bowl, and clarity of the liquid
discharge.Decanter centrifuges require a centrifugal force for the separation of the solids from the liquid. This characteristic is dependent on the radius of the centrifuge and its angular rotational speed. A decanter centrifuge applies a force equivalent to several thousand G's, which reduces the settling time of the particles. It is also favored to maintain a large G-force, which wil result in an improved separation.The rate at which sedimentation occurs is an important characteristic of the decanter centrifuge separation process. The sedimentation rate is influenced by the particle size, the shapes of the particles, their differential densities and the viscosity between the particles and the liquid. This process characteristic can be improved by utilizing flocculating agents. The sedimentation rate is also dependent on the separating factor of the decanter centrifuge, which is related to the centrifugal force.The exterior bowl and the scroll conveyor rotate at different high speeds. This differential speed between the two is accountable for the sedimentation throughout the decanter centrifuge cylinder. A high differential speed results in a smaller residence time of the cake settlement, so it is necessary to keep the cake thickness to a minimum to avoid impairing the discharge quality.

Keeping the cake thickness to a minimum also aids in the improvement of the cake dewatering process. For this reason, it is necessary to obtain an optimal differential speed to balance the cake thickness and quality.The characteristic above all affects the clarity of the liquid output which is dependent on the volumetric throughout rate, where a higher flow rate will result in a poor liquid clarity. Another characteristic that influences the clarity of the liquid output is the differential speed. A low differential speed results in a better clarity, therefore, aiding in the separation process. The G-Force also plays a role in the clarity of the liquid discharge. Higher G-force results in an increase in the separation of the solid particles from the liquid and yields a better clarity.
 

How it works

How does it work
The feed product is pumped into the decanter centrifuges through the inlet. Feed goes into a horizontal bowl, which rotates. The bowl has is composed of a cylindrical part and a conical part. The separation takes place in the cylindrical part of the bowl. The fast rotation generates centrifugal forces up to 4000 x g. Under these forces, the solid particles with higher density are collected and compacted on the wall of the bowl. A scroll (also screw or screw conveyor) rotates inside the bowl at a slightly different speed. This speed difference is called the differential speed. This way the scroll is transporting the settled particles along the cylindrical part of the bowl and up to the end conical part of the bowl. At the smallest end of the conical part of the bowl, the dewatered solids leave the bowl via discharge opening. The clarified liquid leaves through a paring disc (internal centripetal pump).
3-phase separation with a decanter

With a 3 phase decanter centrifuge, it is possible to separate 3 phases from each other in one process step only. For example, two liquids which cannot be mixed because of different densities (e.g. oil and water) are separated from a solids phase. The heavy liquid (water) collects in the middle between the oil and the solids layer. Thus the two liquids separated from each other can be drawn off from the decanter. The solids are transported via the scroll to the discharge
openings as it happens also in 2-phase separation.Typical applications of 3-phase separation are the production of edible oils such as olive oil, oil sludge processing, the production of biodiesel etc.
Parameters and influencing factors of the separation 
Feed, throughput and residence time
Through the feed, the separation medium to be processed can be input into the center of the infeed chamber of the scroll, where it is accelerated. The throughput will have an influence on the residence time.
Decanter Centrifuges Acceleration
The separation medium reaches its maximum speed in the decanter bowl, causing the solids to settle on the bowl inner diameter. A characteristic feature of the bowl is its cylindrical/conical shape.
Differential speed

There is a differential speed between the decanter bowl and the scroll, which is created by a gear unit on the
industrial decanter centrifuges. The differential speed determines the solid content in the outfeed.
Filling volume / Weir discs or overflow weir The clarified liquid flows to the cylindrical end of the bowl in the decanter centrifuge, from where it runs out through openings in the bowl cover. These openings contain precisely adjustable weir discs/weir plates by means of which the pond depth in the bowl can be set. The weir discs determine the filling volume of the bowl.

Advantages and limitations over competitive processes
Generally the decanter centrifuge has more advantages than disadvantages; however, there are some limitations when compared to other processes.
Decanter Centrifuges Advantages:
* Decanter centrifuges have a clean appearance and have little to no odor problems.
* Not only is the device easy to install and fast at starting up and shutting down but also only requires a small area for
operation compared to other competitive processes.
* The decanter centrifuge is versatile as different lengths of the cylindrical bowl section and the cone angle can be selected for different applications. Also, the system can be pre-programmed with various design curves to predict the sludge type, while some competitive processes, such as a belt filter press, cannot change the belt type to operate for different sludge types. Its versatility allows the machine to have various functions such as operating for thickening or dewatering.
* The machine can operate with a higher throughput capacity than smaller machines. This also reduces the number of units required.
* The device is simple to optimize and operate as it has few major variables and reliable feedback information.
* The decanter centrifuge has reduced labor costs compared to other processes, as it requires low continuous maintenance and operator attention.
* Compared to some competitive process such as the belt filter process, the decanter centrifuge has more process flexibility and higher levels of performance.

Decanter Centrifuges Limitations:
* The decanter centrifuges cannot separate biological solids with very small density differences, such as cells and viruses. A competitive process that is capable of separating these difficult-to-separate solids is the tubular-bowl centrifuge.
* The machine can be very noisy and can cause vibration.
* The device has a high-energy consumption due to high G-forces.
* The decanter centrifuge has high equipment capital costs. Hard surfacing and abrasion protection materials are required for the scroll to reduce wear and therefore reduce the maintenance of the scroll wear.
