Abstract:
1. A continuous porous bed centrifuge for the continuous separation of a fluid consisting of two immiscible liquids in dispersion, which comprises: a) a first outer compact essentially conical-shaped rotating skirt; b) a second inner compact essentially conical-shaped skirt, integral with the outer skirt and positioned so as to form an interspace with said outer skirt; c) a perforated toroidal-shaped separation element positioned at the base of the two skirts and suitable for separating the interspace from the inside of the centrifuge; d) a closing base integral with the outer skirt by means of a sealing gasket; e) a section, equipped with a weir acting as a flow regulator, fixed at the head of the outer skirt and with openings for the discharge of the separated liquids; f) a first coaxial tube, integral with the outer skirt and with section (e); g) a second coaxial tube which is not integral with the outer skirt, positioned inside the first tube, for the feeding of the dispersion; h) a filling in the form of particles capable of filling from 40 to 70% of the inner volume of the centrifuge.
