The liquids and solids, which are, will be, due to the different
sediment velocities to be gained, separated and sediment in the
centrifuge and gravity force fields thus to reach the purpose of
separation. The liquid phase and solid phase, which interactive
indissoluble and with different densities in the turbid liquid will
be gained different sediment velocities, so as to be divided into
layers, which can be separated from each other. The separations
that occur in the gravity field are called gravity separation and
sedimentation in the centrifuge field called centrifugal separation
and sedimentation.
Gravity Separation When the turbid liquid is in the sediment pool,
the solids with bigger density sediments slowly in the
gravitational fields by the gravity, finely the turbid liquid will
become clearer and clearer. The liquid with smaller density will
float on the top. For gravitational separation, it will take long
time and more floor space occupied, especially, for the of the
liquid with solid and liquid small differ and big stickiness,
gravitational separation of it is difficult to be realized.
Centrifuge Separation The indissoluble liquids and solids with
different densities will be separated while they are rotated at a
high speed in the bowl, where the particles with heavier density
move to the inside wall of bowl body, the lighter liquid toward the
center of the bowl. Because the centrifugal force generated in the
centrifuge fields in much larger than the gravity force, it takes
only very short time for the centrifuge separation to achieve the
same separation efficiency in the gravity fields. Especially when
the gravity separation cannot be available, the application of best
method is by centrifuge separation.
Separation space There is a stack of discs installed in the bowl,
which divide the bowl space into many conical cavities. That can
shorten the sedimentation distance and improve the separation
efficiency. The moving trace of the limit particle “A” occurs
between the discs (conical cavity). Any particles between A and B
can reach the inside of the discs through this passage section thus
to be separated off.
Separation Methods As per the requirements of application, this
machine can separate the fresh latex into light phase (latex),
heavy phase (residual latex) and a bit of solid phase. This
separator has one inlet and two outlets in it.
