How Did Centrifuges Come into Being?

Aug. 04, 2022

Centrifuges are basically post-processing equipment, mainly used in processes such as dewatering, concentration, separation, clarification and solid particle classification, etc. From the history of centrifuges, centrifuges were created with the continuous progress and development of modern industry.

 

Origin of centrifuges

 

After the industrial revolution in the 18th century, with the rapid development of the textile industry, the cotton dewatering machine appeared in 1836. This was the earliest three-foot centrifuge, and for more than a hundred years thereafter, three-foot centrifuges have undergone continuous technological deepening, forming more than a dozen series totaling more than a hundred specifications of products, completely covering all aspects of the separation market.

Centrifuge development history

 

With the recent development of environmental protection, three waste management needs, for industrial wastewater and sludge dewatering treatment requirements are very high, so prompted the horizontal spiral discharge centrifuge, disc type separator and three-foot lower discharge centrifuge has further development, especially the horizontal spiral discharge centrifuge development is particularly rapid. Today, in the synthetic plastics and synthetic fiber production of separation equipment, spiral centrifuge has become one of the key equipment.

 

China began to introduce decanter centrifuges at the end of the 1970s, and copied a variety of specifications of decanters produced by famous foreign companies. The decanter centrifuge was the "seventh five-year plan" scientific and technological research project of the former Ministry of Chemical Industry. At that time, in terms of overall level, China was still far behind the industrially developed countries. With the development of modern industrial civilization and the emphasis of human beings on the environment and sustainable development strategy, good separation effect, low vibration and low noise become important conditions for centrifuges to be accepted by the market. This requires centrifuges with good dynamic characteristics. Usually, dynamic characteristics include critical speed, unbalance response and stability. Decanter centrifuge parameters selection and optimization is the first link to improve the dynamic characteristics of the decanter centrifuge.

 

The first Chinese decanter centrifuge with real modern practical value was manufactured in 1954, and it has been rapidly developed due to its unique features of continuous operation, large processing capacity, less power consumption per unit of output, and high adaptability. In more than 40 years of development, the spiral centrifuge has changed a lot in structure, performance and parameters, the separation quality and production capacity have been improved, and the application range Also more extensive, in the field of centrifuges has always occupied an important position. At various international exhibitions, a wide variety of spiral centrifuges, which are the most attractive models of centrifuges exhibited, have good prospects for development.

 

Jiangsu Huada Centrifuge Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of SCIME (stock code: 300425), was established in 1993 in Zhangjiagang, an emerging port city in China. It is a leading manufacturer of centrifuges in China. Over the years, always focus on the research and development, production and sales of filtration and separation machinery, insist on building an open and win-win cooperation system, lead the industry with scientific and reasonable technological innovation, win the market with professional and standardized customer service, guarantee quality with excellent management, provide every customer with focused solutions to solid-liquid separation problems.
