What Is Horizontal Decanter Centrifuge?

A horizontal decanter centrifuge is a type of centrifuge used for separating solids from liquids in a continuous process. It is commonly used in industries such as wastewater treatment, chemical processing, food and beverage, and oil and gas. 

The horizontal decanter centrifuge consists of a rotating cylindrical bowl, a conveyor screw (also known as an auger or scroll), and a differential speed drive system. The bowl and conveyor are horizontally oriented.

The mixture of solids and liquids is introduced into the rotating bowl through a feed pipe. Under centrifugal force, the denser solids settle along the bowl wall, forming a cake layer, while the lighter liquids (centrate) accumulate in the center of the bowl.

A horizontal decanter centrifuge is a type of centrifuge used for separating solids from liquids in a continuous process. It is commonly used in industries such as wastewater treatment, chemical processing, food and beverage, and oil and gas. Here are the key features and working principles of a horizontal decanter centrifuge:

Horizontal decanter centrifuges are used for a wide range of applications, including dewatering of sludge in wastewater treatment plants, clarification of liquids in chemical processes, separation of fine solids from liquids in food processing, and recovery of valuable materials in the mining and oil industries.
