GN 3-phase Decanter Centrifuge, also known as GN Tricanter, is a type of centrifuge used for the separation of three immiscible phases within a mixture. Operating on the principle of centrifugal force, this centrifuge efficiently divides complex mixtures into three distinct components, offering superior separation capabilities compared to its 2-phase counterpart.
The process involves introducing the mixture into a rotating bowl, where the powerful centrifugal force rapidly segregates the different phases based on their densities. The heavier solid phase settles at the bottom, while the two liquid phases form separate outer layers, each with its unique density.
