Decanter centrifuge functions for various industries

Decanter centrifuge is used to separate (dewater) solid materials from liquids in solids control system when they are mixed together in mud. Besides, decanter centrifuge is applied in many industries such as:
1. Solids separation (oil well drilling, refining, de-watering)
2. Industrial and biological wastewater treatment
3. Food processing (olive oil, wine, fruit juice)
4. Fish processing (fish meal, fish oil)
5. Chemical slurry

Decanter centrifuge is driven by two motors. The main motor drives the drum and the outer casing of differential through belts while the auxiliary motor, after the differential shifting speed, drives the spiral propeller. This will make the drum and the spiral propeller rotate in the same direction with a certain differential speed. There are several different types of decanter centrifuges, such as: Vertical, horizontal, or scroll (conveyor).
