Decanter Centrifuge in Indonesia
A decanter is a mechanical equipment used for the separation of solids and liquids or the separation of liquids with different densities, commonly used in industrial and wastewater treatment processes. It works on the principle of sedimentation and centrifugal force, where heavier solid particles or denser liquids are separated from lighter phases. Decanters are widely used in wastewater treatment plants, chemical industries, food & beverage industries, and oil refineries.
There are two main types:
- Gravity Decanter – relies on natural settling of solids from liquids.
- Decanter Centrifuge – uses high rotational speed to accelerate separation, making it suitable for continuous and efficient solid–liquid separation.
