CE 282 Disc Centrifuge Didactic Equipment Vocational Training Equipment Mechanical Training Equipment
Continuous separation of emulsions Features - continuous separation of emulsions - maintenance and inspection exercises possible - practical experiments on a laboratory scale Learning objectives/experiments - production of stable emulsions with different types of stirrer - learning the fundamental principle of disc centrifuges - influence of rotation speed and feed flow rate on separation result - characteristic of concentration of the light phase in the stirred tank over time (with photometer) - startup/shutdown and operation of a disc centrifuge - maintenance - cleaning - inspection Specification [1] continuous separation of emulsions with a disc centrifuge [2] HDPE tank with stirring machine to produce an emulsion [3] centrifugal pump to deliver the emulsion to the centrifuge [4] adjustment of emulsion flow rate by valve [5] centrifuge speed adjustable by potentiometer [6] speed-controlled stirring machine with digital torque indicator [7] 3 interchangeable stirrers [8] collector tank for separated phase
