Definitions

  • centrifugal separation of solid particles from a liquid in which they are in suspension could not .be obtained in continuous operation.
  • the suspension to be treated is subjected to centrifugal action and the clarified liquid is removed until the solid deposit reaches a given thickness on the peripheral wall of the centrifugal apparatus.
  • Apparatus of the type used for separating cream from milk in which the separation and extraction take place in a continuous manner, are perfectly well adapted to the separation of emulsions of two liquids. But they cannot be used for the separation of solid particles in suspension, where the densities of the suspensions are liable to vary during the separation operation, because in this case, the equilibriums that are obtained 'are unstable and simultaneous evacuation of the liquid and the mud formed by the solid particles is no longer possible.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for obviating these difiiculties and ensuring, with a continuous operation, the separation of solid particles from a liquidin which they are in suspension.
  • the suspension of solid particles in a liquid is treated in a centrifugal apparatus and the mud that collects at the periphery of this apparatus is driven in a centripetal direction by a stream of water or any other liquid the pressure of which is automatically regulated in accordance with the very op- I eration of the apparatus.
  • this regulation of the pressure of the water or other liquid that drives the mud in the centripetal direction is as- .sured in a very simple manner by feeding said liquid from the center towardthe periphery through a suitable supply conduit, while the mud carried along by said liquid is evacuated from the periphery toward the center through a suitable evacuation conduit.
  • the level of said liquid in the feed conduit establishes itself automatically at a distance from the axis of rotation such that there is always suflicient pressure for driving along the heavy elements, whatever .be its variations resulting from variations of the percentage of heavy elements, of densities,'viscosities, and so on.
  • the rate of flow of the liquid stream maintains itself always at the selected value and the flow of the heavy elements is thus ensured, because unstability of the equilibrium is automatically corrected.
  • the discharge orifices which may be either calibrated orifices or ordinary orifices, are located far enough from the periphery so that they can have a relatively large cross-section and, hence, not be liable to p ng.
  • the relative rate of flow of the auxiliary liquid that is to say of the liquid for carrying oil the heavy particles, may be made such that a portionof this liquid flows (ascends) outside the evacuation conduit into the centrifugal bowl, and in countercurrent fashion with respect to the movement of the heavy elements which flow toward the periphery.
  • the deposit is thus washed in the best possible conditions, if a certain dilution of the evacuated clarified liquid is not objectionable.
  • the method according to the present invention further permits of replacing, in a suspension, the dispersing liquid by another one.
  • the method and apparatus for the continuous centrifugal separation of solid particles from the liquid in which they are dispersed, as aboveset forth, is applied to the separation of red mu in suspension in solutions of sodium aluminate, obtained in the alkaline treatment of bauxite in autoclaves, which separation is to be carried out during the manufacture'of alumina according to the Bayer process.
  • the temperature of a decantation apparatus hardly exceeds 95 C. and the molecular ratio of caustic NazO to A110: of the aluminate liquors that leave the autoclave is generally close to 1.8. It is therefore obvious that the solutions that are treated are metastable and that a more or less advanced decomposition is always to be feared. This fact is well known to the experts on alumina, who are aware that a slowing down of the decantation process is almost sure to cause a drop in the yield of the plant.
  • the invention can be carried out with centrifugal' apparatus of all kinds.
  • the annexed drawings show, by way of example, the application of the invention to the case of centrifugal apparatu comprising a container fitted with a plurality of superposed discs or conical elements, and to that of a centrifugal apparatus provided with a plurality of peripheral cones, but these examples should not be considered as having any limitative character.

  • Fig. 9 is a view partially in elevation and partially in axial section on the line IXIX of Fig. 8;
  • Fig. 10 is a sectional view of the end of a cone of a centrifugal machine, made according to still another modification.
  • the apparatus includes a main body I and a cover 2 fixed to said main body by means of a nut ring I 3. A plurality of conical plates it are superposed in body I.
  • the mixture to be decanted or separated is introduced through tube I into the space between partition 9 and the bottom of body i anditisledtothebaseoftheplleof plates is on the outer side thereof.
  • the heavy elements or particles collect at the periphery of body i, where they meet with liquid streams of centripetal direction. These heavy elements are driven into and through pipes I and evacuated through calibrated orifices I.
  • the mud that accumulates at the periphery of the container formed by .body I and cover 2 forms funnel-shaped deposits around pipes l, the spaces limited by these funnel-shaped mud deposits serving in the separation operation.
  • the liquid for driving out these heavy elements is introduced through conduit II into distributing means where it is divided into as many equal portions as there are devices for the evacuation of the heavy elements.
  • Each of these portions is led, through pipes i5, disposed between partition 1 and the bottom of body I. to the points of the periphery where the heavy elements collect together.
  • the liquid in course of clarification ascends 60 between discs II and flows out in the clarified ,stafe through calibrated orifice II.
  • the apparatus includes a central body i on which are fixed a plurality of cones 2' located either all in the same plane or in different parallel planes.
  • These cones include a partition I, also of conical shape, and an axial pipe 4' leading to calibratedoriiices 5'.
  • the mixture to be separated or decanted is introduced through conduit 0' into distributing device I where, by means of a set of radial partitions, it is divided into as many equal portions as there are cones I in the apparatus.
  • the clarified liquid flows inwardly between distributor 9' and partition 3', enters space II and escapes through calibrated orifices l2.
  • the heavy elements collect at the apex of the cone, where they meet with a stream of liquid of centripetal direction. These elements are driven into pipe 4' and evacuated through calibrated orifice 5'.
  • the driving liquid is fed through conduit I3 into passage l5 between cones 2' and 3', after passing through distributing device H where, owing to the action of a plurality of radial partitions, it has been divided into as many equal portions as there are cones.
  • I may cause a portion of the liquid of the initial suspension to flow out through conduits 4 or 4'.
  • I may also cause a portion of the auxiliary liquid to mix with the liquid of said suspension. For this purpose, it suffices, for' instance, either to reduce or to increase the volume' of liquid introduced into distributing device I or H.
  • the distance between the various parts of centrifugal apparatus is suitably determined in such manner that the liquid level in conduit I5 is normally located in the middle part of this conduit.
  • this level very quickly comes to such a distance from the axis of revolution that the variation of pressure that results from this variation of position of the liquid level keeps the fiow of liquid at the chosen rate.
  • Figs. 1, 2 and 3 are given merely by way of example, and many modifications can be made therein without, departing from the principle of the invention.
  • the calibrated orifices 5' and I2 of Fig. 2 can be replaced.
  • the rate of fiow is'determined by giving suitable lengths to tubes l6 and II, the latter opposing to the circulation of the elements a counter-pressure which is the higher the nearer their orifices are from the axis of rotation a-b.
  • the sections of these tubes should be chosen relatively large so that only their length need be taken into account, whatever be the rate of flow and the viscosity of the elements conveyed therethrough.
  • the driving liquid may itself be constituted of a suspension instead of being constituted of a clear liquid.
  • This auxiliary liquid or suspension may, if advantageous, be introduced under pressure, by replacing, for instance, tube I3 of Fig. 2 by an axial tube l3 as in Fig. 1, but provided with a stufiing box.
  • the auxiliary liquid or suspension for carrying along the heavy elements may be introduced by means of a piston pump the discharge pressure of which will add its action to the automatic action of the centrifugal apparatus, so as to overcome the resistances that are opposed to the evacuation of the heavy elements.
  • I may also introduce into the tube 4 or 4', in addition to the auxiliary liquid, a gas or vapor intended to reduce the weight of the column of suspension to be evacuated.
  • I may also replace the auxiliary liquid or suspension that is fed through conduit l3 or l3 by an emulsion of a gas or vapor.
  • pipes 4 and I5 may be replaced by annular channels of small width, which makes it possible todispense with the formation of funnel-shaped stable mud deposits as above set forth, the whole of the bowl being then utilized for decantation cf the mixture.
  • the amount of dispersive phase that is evacuated with the dry matters also varies, which may involve certain drawbacks, in particular that of collectin a smaller amount of the dispersive phase that is employed.
  • Fig. 4 which is of a type analogous to that of Fig. 1, makes it possible to vary during the course of the operation the volume of clarified liquid and, therefore, to collect the desired quantity of this liquid.
  • the orifices l2 for the discharge of the clarified liquid open into a circular channel 20 which rotates together with the body I of the apparatus.
