The screw sedimentation centrifuge mainly consists of a feeding system, a screw conveyor, a drum, a drive device, a control system and other components. The feeding system is responsible for sending the materials to be separated into the drum. The screw conveyor is located inside the drum and rotates coaxially with it. It is used to push the settled solid materials towards the small end of the drum for discharge. The drum is a key component for material separation. The centrifugal force generated by its high-speed rotation achieves the separation of materials. The drive unit provides the rotational power for the drum and the screw conveyor. The control system is responsible for the operation monitoring and automatic control of the entire centrifuge.
Screw sedimentation centrifuges are widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical engineering, food, medicine, and environmental protection. In the petroleum industry, it can be used for crude oil dehydration and sludge treatment. In the chemical industry, it is used in liquid-liquid separation and solid-liquid separation processes. In the food industry, it can be used for the separation and purification of dairy products, beverages, syrups and other products. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is applied to the purification of drugs and the separation of biological products. In the field of environmental protection, screw sedimentation centrifuges can be used for wastewater treatment to achieve sludge dewatering.
