A decanter centrifuge is an industrial device used to separate mixtures of solids and liquids or different liquids by centrifugal force. It is effective for solid-liquid separation, dehydration, and in some cases, three-phase separation of water, oil, and solids. Decanter centrifuges are known for handling a wide range of liquids and performing continuous, large-volume processing.
Decanter centrifuges have diverse industrial applications:
They are also crucial in wastewater treatment and various manufacturing processes.
Decanter centrifuges work by spinning the mixture at high speeds, causing solid-liquid separation due to differences in specific gravity. The process involves feeding the mixture, rotating the bowl, separating solids, dewatering, and discharging separated components.
Decanter centrifuges can be horizontal or vertical, with various modifications for improved efficiency and application-specific needs.
