Abstract

See full text

A centrifugal separator for separating a liquid heavy phase and light phase from a liquid feed mixture includes a drive member and a rotating part. The rotating part includes a centrifuge rotor enclosing a separation space and a sludge space. The centrifugal separator includes an inlet for receiving the liquid feed mixture into the centrifuge rotor, a first outlet for the liquid heavy phase and a second outlet for the liquid light phase. The centrifugal separator includes a conduit system for recirculating separated liquid heavy phase discharged from a first outlet to the sludge space within the centrifuge rotor without mixing the recirculated separated liquid heavy phase with the liquid feed mixture. Sludge outlets, other than the first and second outlets, discharge sludge separated from said liquid feed mixture. A method for separating a liquid heavy phase and a liquid light phase from a liquid feed mixture is also disclosed.
