Abstract

See full text

A screen bowl decanter centrifuge comprises a horizontally rotatable bowl (10) within which a scroll conveyor (46, 60) is coaxially mounted for rotation at a slightly different speed for conveying solids, deposited by centrifugal action on the internal surface of the bowl, towards a solids discharge end of the bowl, the other end of the bowl having a liquids outlet (28). The bowl (10) has an imperforate frustoconical portion (18), which converges towards the solids discharge end and provides a sloping ramp up which solids are drawn by the conveyor out of the liquid pool contained in the bowl, and a perforate screen portion (20) downstream of the imperforate frustoconical portion (18) in the direction of solids discharge for assisting dewatering of the solids. The perforate screen portion (20) comprises a first portion (22) downstream of the imperforate frustoconical portion (18), inclined at a first angle with respect to the rotational axis (A-A) of the bowl, and a second, divergent portion (24), considered in the direction of solids discharge, downstream of the first portion (22) and inclined at a second angle with respect to the rotational axis of the bowl. The scroll conveyor (46, 60) is located adjacent to both the imperforate portion (18) and the perforate screen portion (20) of the bowl.
