Compact 110-240V Disc Bowl Centrifuge For Liquid Liquid Separation

Liquid liquid separation by disc bowl centrifuge disc bowl centrifugation centrifuge

Liquid-liquid separation using disc bowl centrifuges is a process commonly employed in various industries, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment. Here’s a brief overview of how this process works:

Overview of Disc Bowl Centrifugation

1. Principle:

   • Disc bowl centrifuges operate on the principle of centrifugal force. When the centrifuge spins, denser liquids are forced outward, while lighter liquids remain closer to the center.

2. Design:

   • The disc bowl centrifuge consists of a rotating bowl with stacked discs. These discs create multiple separation zones, increasing the surface area for interaction between the liquid phases.

3. Operation:

   • The mixture of liquids is fed into the centrifuge, and as it spins, the heavier liquid (often the desired product) moves outward, while the lighter liquid (usually a waste or by-product) remains closer to the center.
   • The separation process is enhanced by the use of the discs, which reduce the settling time for the liquids.

4. Applications:

   • Food Processing: Separating oils from water in the production of edible oils.
   • Pharmaceuticals: Recovery of active ingredients from various solvents.
   • Wastewater Treatment: Removal of oils from water in industrial effluents.

5. Advantages:

   • High efficiency in separation.
   • Continuous operation, allowing for higher throughput.
   • Compact design, suitable for limited space.

6. Challenges:

   • Proper maintenance is required to avoid wear.
   • It's essential to optimize feed conditions to ensure effective separation.
