CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR SEPARATING SLUDGE INTO SOLID AND LIQUID, PARTICULARLY, DECANTER TYPE CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATOR

摘要

A mechanism and method for treating sludge material for separating the material into solid and liquid phases in a centrifugal separator having a rotating drum and an advancing screw driven at a speed differential relative to the drum, conveying a solid phase of the sludge to a digester tower for generating a biogas, delivering the biogas to a collection chamber and feeding the biogas to a gas powered prime mover connected to drive the centrifugal separator through a hydraulic pump and motor drive with the biogas generated and supplied to the motor commensurate with the speed of operation of the separator.
