Patent ID: 7077881

Claim:
An apparatus for the simultaneous cleaning of a liquid from first particles suspended therein and a gas from second particles suspended therein, the apparatus comprising: a centrifugal rotor rotatable about a rotational axis and arranged for through flow and cleaning of said liquid, a driving device is arranged for rotation of the centrifugal rotor about said rotational axis, a gas cleaning device connected with the centrifugal rotor for rotation together therewith and arranged for through flow and cleaning of said gas, a stationary housing surrounding the centrifugal rotor and delimiting a passage for conducting said gas to a gas inlet of the gas cleaning device, the gas cleaning device including a stack of conical separation discs arranged substantially coaxially with said rotational axis and between themselves delimiting flow passages for the gas to be cleaned, the stack of separation discs delimiting a central space in communication with said passage in the stationary housing, through the inlet of the gas cleaning device, and also with radially inner parts of the flow passages between the conical discs, and wherein the stack of separation discs is surrounded by a stationary casing delimiting around the separation discs a receiving space, in which radial outer parts of the flow passages between the conical discs open.
