The Westfalia Separator ecod Decanters

The Core of the ecod SystemThe Westfalia Separator ecod decanter is a horizontal

separating decanter with a cylindrical-conical solid

wall bowl for the continuous separation of solid and

liquid. The ecod decanters are specially designed for

the new ecod system, a process which doesn't need

any dilution water. The valuable slurry discharge of

the ecod decanters can be composted and used as

fertilizer, so effluent ponds are no longer necessary

for effluents from the decanter.

The solid-wall bowl has a cylindrical section for

efficient separation and clarification of the liquid. The

product enters the decanter through the feed tube

and passes through the distributor into the

centrifugation space. The liquid level in the bowl is

adjustable via regulating plates. Due to the centrifugal

forces, the solid particles are forced to the bowl wall

and are transported by the decanter scroll to the solids

outlet. The design of the special scroll avoids oil losses

at the solid side.

The liquids are separated in the separation zone

into two resulting liquids: oil and liquid solids

discharge.

The thickness of the light phase layer is adjustable by

means of regulating plates. The clarified and separated

oil leave the centrifugation space via exchangeable

regulating plates and discharge through outlet.
