Decanter : Purpose and Operating Principle
“The decanter operates mainly by sedimentation, a process causing the separation of suspended
solids by virtue of their higher density than the liquid in which they are suspended”
The Decanter Centrifuge Handbook, 2003
Decanter : continuous liquid/solid separation tool
Advantages of decanters:
-Compact (In-Line design)
-High G-Force (up to 4000 g)
-Good clarification while maintaining high solids content in the separated fiber
