Process
Horizontal Basket Peeler Centrifuges are successfully used in Foodstuff, Pharmaceutical, Plastic, Organic & Inorganic Chemicals Industry for separating solids from solid-liquid slurries with 5 to 50% solids contents and particle size ranging from 2 microns to 10 mm. Products which are difficult to filter or decant can be easily separated using Peeler centrifuge. Typical process cycle click here. Even though the operational method is discontinuous i.e. solid-liquid separation takes place in specific work steps. Sequentially, the process can be fully automated. The unique feature of Horizontal Peeler Centrifuge is the constant basket speed i.e. all operations like feeding, drying discharging etc. are carried out at full-basket-speed. The sequence of operations can be either semi or fully automatically controlled by an Electro-hydraulic control panel or PLC controller.
Typical Process Cycle
  • Feeding:
    The Suspension is fed from the Storage tank to the basket rotating at full operational speed.
  • Removal of Mother Liquor:
    Under the influence of the centrifugal force the Liquid is drained from the solids, through filter elements (usually filter cloth). The solids are collected as ‘cake’ in the basket.
  • Washing:
    If required, in order to remove the traces of mother liquor washing facility can be provided to thoroughly wash the solids during separation.
  • Re-drying:
    After giving wash or other treatment solids are further allowed to dry.
  • Discharging:
    Solids are “peeled” off by means of full-basket-wide scraper and is discharged through a chute in front cover of the machine or conveyed by a discharge screw.
Applications
Amino acids, benzoic acid, benzene, hexachloride, calcium hypo chloride hexachlorocyclohexane insulin, potassium bisulphate, sodium perborate, penicillin, sulphur, starch, etc.
