The Centrifuge decanter is used for the separation of two or more phases of different specific gravity in particular for the clarifying of liquids in which suspended solids are present. Among the many types of sludge that advantageously can be dewatered are raw sludge, biological sludge, digested sludge, waterworks sludge, paper/cellulose sludge, fish sludge, oil sludge etc.
Centrifuge Decanter is used for Separation of Slurry it Operates at High Pressure, high RPM, and high load. The separation of solids and liquids takes place within a cylindrical/truncated cone-shaped rotating drum, upon the periphery of which the heavier solid phases collect and is continually removed by the internal independently rotating screw. The drum and the screw rotate independently of one another at up to 4,000 rpm, depending on the type of machine and the type of sludge.
This paper describes the case study where the decanters are upgraded based on design specific high grade coatings of wear sections for reclamation to reduce the downtime and improve the working efficiency.
