Decanter centrifuges
Lemitec decanter centrifuges of the MD series were developed specifically as two-phase decanter centrifuges for use in laboratories and pilot plants to enable small quantities of products to be processed at rates of between 1 L/h to 100 L/h in a continuous separation operation.
The minimum throughputs of industrial decanter centrifuges are generally far greater than the throughputs required for the quantities of products available in research laboratories. In the past, the processing stage of continuous separation therefore frequently had to be simulated with alternative batch-wise separation methods.
