Pusher Centrifuge

Product Details:

A Pusher Centrifuge is a type of continuous filtration centrifuge used for separating solids from liquids in a slurry, especially when processing large volumes of crystalline or granular solids. It’s widely used in the chemical, pharmaceutical, fertilizer, and salt industries.

1. Slurry Feed:

   • A slurry (solid-liquid mixture) is fed into the rotating basket of the centrifuge.

2. Filtration Begins:

   • The centrifugal force pushes the liquid (mother liquor) through a filter screen or perforated basket, leaving the solids behind.

3. Pushing Mechanism:

   • A reciprocating pusher plate (or plunger) pushes the solids axially towards the discharge end of the basket in pulses.

4. Continuous Solids Discharge:

   • The dried solids are continuously discharged from the front end, while fresh slurry enters from the back end.

5. Mother Liquor Collection:

   • The liquid passes through the filter and is collected separately.

• Continuous operation – ideal for large-scale processing

• Efficient solid-liquid separation

• Low moisture content in discharged solids

• Handles high solids concentration slurries

• Low energy consumption per unit of production

• Not suitable for very fine particles (may pass through filter)

• Higher mechanical complexity (more moving parts)

• Not ideal for fragile crystals (can break due to pushing action)

• Requires regular maintenance of the pusher mechanism

• Sodium chloride, potassium chloride, ammonium sulfate

• Pharmaceutical crystals

• PET chips

• PVC and other plastics

• Minerals and fine chemicals
