More Information
Summary:A screen bowl decanter centrifuge comprises a horizontally rotatable bowl (10) within which a scroll conveyor (46, 60) is coaxially mounted for rotation at a slightly different speed for conveying solids, deposited by centrifugal action on the internal surface of the bowl, towards a solids discharge end of the bowl, the other end of the bowl having a liquids outlet (28). The bowl (10) has an imperforate frustoconical portion (18), which converges towards the solids discharge end and provides a sloping ramp up which solids are drawn by the conveyor out of the liquid pool contained in the bowl,and a perforate screen portion (20) downstream of the imperforate frustoconical portion (18) in the direction of solids discharge for assisting dewatering of the solids. The perforate screen portion (20) comprises a first portion (22) downstream of the imperforate frustoconical portion (18), inclined at a first angle with respect to the rotational axis (A-A) of the bowl, and a second, divergent portion (24), considered in
