Alfa Laval Industrial Centrifuges | Types, Uses, Advantages, Specifications
Alfa Laval industrial centrifuges are fluid separators designed and manufactured to separate fluids on a large scale. These centrifuges exert high centrifugal force to affect the separation of solids from liquids and liquids from liquids. Types Alfa Laval manufactures two types of industrial centrifuges. These are known as Decanter and Disc Stack centrifuges. The primary… Continue reading Alfa Laval Industrial Centrifuges | Types, Uses, Advantages, Specifications
Dewatering Centrifuge | Operation, Animation, Uses, Benefits
A dewatering centrifuge is an industrial centrifuge specifically designed to dewater, i.e., separate water from sludge. Water separation from a slurry thickens the sludge and reduces the volume of wastewater for disposal. Therefore, this centrifuge is also known as a sludge-thickening centrifuge. Operation The operation of a dewatering centrifuge can be simply explained as follows.… Continue reading Dewatering Centrifuge | Operation, Animation, Uses, Benefits

Tramp Oil Removal Using an Alfa Laval 3-Phase Disc-Stack Centrifuge
Tramp Oil Tramp oil is an undesirable phase of hydrocarbon oil contaminant found in machining coolants and washer fluids. This floating oil is a by-product of industrial machining operations contaminating the water-based coolant. Tramp oil removal from machining coolants is critical to the maintenance of coolants. Where does tramp oil originate? The various components of… Continue reading Tramp Oil Removal Using an Alfa Laval 3-Phase Disc-Stack Centrifuge
