Flottweg three-phase decanter, Z4D-3/441, last used in a fruit juice
plant. Inner drum diameter: 420 mm Inner drum length: 1245 mm Drum
wall thickness: 10 mm The medium to be separated is fed into the
hollow center axis of the decanter. Centrifugal force causes the
solids to collect on the drum shell. A cylindrical-conical screw
conveyor transports the ring of solids to the discharge openings,
where it is ejected into the solids housing. The two liquid components
separate according to their specific density and form two hollow
liquid cylinders. The diameter of the liquid rings can be adjusted
using a peeling disc and overflow weir. One of the two phases is
discharged without pressure and one is discharged under pressure via
the paring disc. The moisture content of the solids and the purity of
the liquids can be controlled by: - Varying the phase separation discs
and paring diameter - Decanter speed - Screw speed, Additional title:
