Abstract

See full text

A centrifugal separation system includes a centrifugal separator, a liquid feed mixture conduit, a light phase conduit, a heavy phase conduit, and a flow control system. The flow control system includes a controller, a counterpressure generating arrangement connected to a heavy phase conduit, a liquid feed mixture measuring device, and a light phase measuring device and/or a heavy phase measuring device. The counterpressure generating arrangement includes a heavy phase receiving vessel and a heavy phase pressure control arrangement connected to the vessel. The controller is configured to control the heavy phase pressure control arrangement based on measurements from the liquid feed mixture measuring device and on measurements from the light phase measuring device and/or the heavy phase measuring device in order to control a heavy phase counterpressure in the heavy phase outlet passage.
