Dehydration effect of food starch solid-liquid separation
A decanter centrifuge is a device that uses the principle of centrifugal settling to separate suspensions. Its working principle is that when the suspension to be separated enters the drum of the centrifuge, solid particles with a higher density than the liquid phase quickly settle to the inner wall of the drum under the centrifugal force of the drum. The screw conveyor inside the centrifuge pushes the solid particles deposited on the inner wall of the drum towards the drying zone at the small end of the drum for further dehydration, and then discharges them through the slag outlet. The separated clear liquid flows out from the overflow weir at the large end of the drum. This horizontal spiral centrifuge can continuously feed, separate, wash, and discharge at full speed.
