How does Z73-4/454 Flottweg Decanter Centrifuge work ?
Separation takes place in a horizontal cylindrical bowl equipped with a screw conveyor.
The feed enters the bowl through a stationary inlet tube and is accelerated smoothly by an inlet distributor. The centrifugal force that results from the rotation then causes sedimentation of the solids on the wall of the bowl.
The scroll conveyor rotates in the same direction as the bowl, but slightly slower, thus moving the solids towards the conical end of the Z73-4/454 Flottweg bowl. The cake leaves the bowl through the solids discharge openings into the casing. Separation takes place throughout the entire length of the cylindrical part of the bowl, and the clarified liquid leaves the bowl by flowing over adjustable plate dams into the casing.
