Used Andritz D2LC30CNV Three-Phase Decanter Centrifuge – Built 2012

Description

Used Andritz Model D2LC30CNV solid bowl three-phase decanter centrifuge with stainless steel product contact surfaces, a CIP system and a standalone Allen-Bradley touchscreen control panel. Configured for liquid/liquid/solids separation of compatible mixtures containing two immiscible liquids of different densities and suspended solids. The rotating bowl separates the phases by density, while an internal screw conveyor transports accumulated solids toward discharge. Includes a gearbox and backdrive for controlling differential speed between the bowl and conveyor. Maximum bowl speed is 5,000 RPM, with a listed centrifugal force of approximately 3,600 x G. A centripetal pump discharges one liquid phase under pressure. Includes a supporting base and casing with a clean-in-place flush fitting. Powered by a 20 HP main drive motor rated for 480 volts, 3-phase, 60 Hz electrical service. Built in 2012. Serial number 132171840. Possible applications include oil, water and solids separation from compatible food-processing mixtures, edible oil and fat recovery, and three-phase fractionation of plant-derived process streams, subject to feed characteristics, temperature and separation requirements.

Product Details

Potential Applications

• Separation of oil, water and suspended solids from compatible process mixtures.
• Recovery of edible oils or fats from compatible aqueous streams containing solids.
• Three-phase fractionation of suitable plant-derived process streams.
• Separation trials requiring independent recovery of two liquid fractions and a solids fraction.

Performance depends on density differences, viscosity, emulsion stability, temperature, solids loading and operating settings.

What Products Would This Be Used For?

Potential feed materials include:

• Food-processing mixtures containing separable oil, water and solids.
• Edible oil recovery streams containing an aqueous phase and suspended particles.
• Fat-bearing process liquids with separable water and solids.
• Plant-derived oil/water mixtures containing residual process solids.

These are potential feed materials, rather than documented previous products. Suitability requires review of the mixture and installed configuration.
