2-phase separating decanter for chemical and mineral processing

In chemical and mineral processing, efficient separation and classification of solids from liquids is essential. This often involves overcoming challenges related to the clear classification of fine particles and the need for reliable dewatering of solids.

Efficiently dewater and classify chemical and mineral products

The 2-Phase Separating Decanter cutMaster from GEA is designed to enhance the separation and classification of chemical and mineral products. This deep-pond decanter centrifuge utilizes a solid-wall bowl with a cylindrical section for efficient liquid clarification and a conical section for effective solid drying. Centrifugal forces propel the solids onto the inner bowl shell, where they are then transported by the scroll to the solids discharge. The clarified liquid is expelled freely into a liquid catcher and flows off under gravity. The GEA summationdrive ensures high differential speeds and torques for handling high solid capacities, with automatic adaptation of differential speed via a frequency-controlled motor. All product-contacting parts are constructed from high-alloyed duplex steels, super duplex steels, or Hastelloy C276, enhancing durability and compatibility with various chemical applications. Additionally, the system is CIP-compatible, ensuring easy cleaning and maintenance. It is available with explosion-proof options adhering to European ATEX standards and can operate at temperatures up to 130°C.
