3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge for Advanced Solid Liquid Liquid Separation

The 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge is a powerful industrial separation machine designed to separate solids, oil, and water simultaneously with high precision. Also known as a tricanter, this advanced system is widely used across industries such as oil & gas, food processing, chemical manufacturing, and wastewater treatment.

This high-efficiency equipment uses centrifugal force to divide materials into three distinct phases, ensuring maximum recovery and minimal waste. The Decanter Centrifuge is engineered for continuous operation, making it an ideal choice for large-scale industrial processes.

Key Features of 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge 

• Simultaneous separation of solid, heavy liquid, and light liquid
• Continuous and automated operation
• High-speed rotating bowl for efficient separation
• Durable stainless steel construction (SS2205/SS2304)
• PLC + HMI intelligent control system
• Wear-resistant components for longer lifespan

The Decanter Centrifuge is built with high-quality materials and advanced technology, ensuring stable performance even under extreme working conditions.

Working Principle

The 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge operates by rotating a bowl at high speed to generate strong centrifugal force. The feed slurry enters the bowl and is rapidly separated into three layers:

• Solid phase: Moves outward and is discharged
• Heavy liquid (water): Settles near the bowl wall
• Light liquid (oil): Forms the inner layer

A screw conveyor continuously removes solids, while separated liquids are discharged through dedicated outlets. This process ensures efficient and uninterrupted separation.
