The LXC-150 Pilot Centrifugal Extractor is a novel, rapid, and efficient liquid-liquid extraction and separation unit. It boasts higher separation efficiency compared to traditional extraction equipment like extraction basins and towers, making it more conducive to continuous production.

Centrifugal extractors use an electric motor to drive a drum to rotate at high speed. The two liquids to be mixed and separated are mixed and transferred through the shearing force generated by the agitator blades, and then quickly separated under the centrifugal force produced by the high-speed rotation of the drum.

Centrifugal extraction units can be used individually or in multi-stage series for countercurrent extraction. They offer high mass transfer efficiency, short residence time for both phases, and minimal retention. Operation is simple, allowing for variable speed, flow ratio, and mixing intensity as needed.

To meet customer needs, Zhengfen Distillation offers extraction equipment consultation and services: from initial communication on process objectives or operational conditions, planning, design, customized production, and manufacturing, helping you build the ideal extraction equipment, allowing you to worry and relax more.

Mixed process

Light and heavy phase materials are fed into the mixing zone of the equipment via the feed port at the bottom of the centrifugal extraction unit in the required ratio as per the process specifications. The motor drives the mixing structure at high speed, rapidly blending and dispersing the light and heavy phases, thereby completing the mixing mass transfer process.

Separation process

The mixed liquid enters the drum under the action of the vortex disc or feeder, quickly synchronizing with the drum rotation within the cavity formed by the web. Under the force of centrifugal force, the denser heavy-phase liquid gradually moves away from the drum center towards the drum wall as it flows upwards; conversely, the lighter phase liquid moves away from the drum wall towards the center. After clarification, the two phases of liquid flow through their respective weir plates into the collection chamber and exit through the heavy and light phase outlets, completing the separation process.

Features of the Equipment

♦ High mixing efficiency and excellent extraction effect: Can flexibly match mixing structures according to different material system requirements, achieving efficient extraction.

♦ Excellent two-phase separation effect: The equipment uses centrifugal force to separate the aqueous phase and organic phase, ensuring quick and stable separation, free from interference from human factors.

♦ Small online liquid holding capacity: The internal liquid holding capacity of the equipment is small, for example, the liquid holding capacity of a 6m³/h processing capacity equipment can be 35L.

♦ The equipment has a low amplification effect: The equipment separates using centrifugal force and employs precise mixing, making it a typical process intensification device with a low amplification effect.

♦ Energy-saving and Environmental Protection: Lower power consumption, fully enclosed design, high-efficiency and energy-saving environmental protection equipment.

♦ Small equipment footprint
