Disc Stack Centrifuge | Sludge Ejection Cycle Time Calculation
One of the essential features of a self-cleaning disc centrifuge is to eject the separated solids while operating. The frequency of this ejection process is crucial to the process efficiency and centrifuge wellbeing. This article discusses the various aspects of the sludge ejection cycle time, from calculating the cycle time to the results of incorrect… Continue reading Disc Stack Centrifuge | Sludge Ejection Cycle Time Calculation
Pyrolysis Oil Centrifuge Application: Large Scale Production from Tires
In this real-world case study, we will discuss the applicability of a pyrolysis oil centrifuge and its application for the large-scale production of bio-oil from used tires. Pyrolysis Process – Brief Description Solid organic material (mostly petroleum-based), such as plastics, tires, etc., disintegrates into solid and liquid phases at elevated temperatures. This reaction occurs without… Continue reading Pyrolysis Oil Centrifuge Application: Large Scale Production from Tires
Disc Centrifuge Backpressure | A Comprehensive Guide
What is Backpressure in Disc Centrifuges? A paring disc pump within the disc centrifuge bowl converts the rotational momentum of the fluid into pressure. This pressure causes the liquid to discharge out of the bowl. Any restriction in the discharge passage of the liquids exerts pressure on the bowl. This externally created pressure is known… Continue reading Disc Centrifuge Backpressure | A Comprehensive Guide

6 Causes of Disc Stack Centrifuge Bad Separation
Synopsis Disc Centrifuge separation results depend on internal (centrifuge specific) and external (process fluid-related) factors. In this article, we discuss the common reasons behind disc stack centrifuge bad separation. We will first discuss internal, i.e., centrifuge-related causes of bad separation results. Following this, we will discuss external factors that often affect separation results. Disc Centrifuge… Continue reading 6 Causes of Disc Stack Centrifuge Bad Separation
Machining Coolant Recovery Centrifuge with Pasteurizing
Synopsys A machining coolant recovery centrifuge is a 3-phase disc centrifuge that is widely used to recover water-based coolants for reuse. Coolant pasteurizing, in addition to centrifugation, is worth considering due to its benefits. This article evaluates the benefits of coolant pasteurizing together with a disc centrifuge. Machining Coolant – What is it? Why is… Continue reading Machining Coolant Recovery Centrifuge with Pasteurizing
Removing Metals from Used Engine Oil | Industrial Centrifuge
Used Engine Oil – What is it? Where Does it Come From? Used engine oil is a term used to describe used lubricating oil from Internal Combustion (IC) engines. Lubricating oil tends to lose its lubricating properties with use. Hence, the oil is periodically replaced to prolong engine life and prevent breakdowns. The oil that is… Continue reading Removing Metals from Used Engine Oil | Industrial Centrifuge
