Calcium Hypochlorite Decanter Centrifuge

The calcium hypochlorite slurry enters the rotating bowl through the feed pipe. Under centrifugal force, solid particles move outward and settle on the bowl wall.

The clarified liquid or mother liquor forms an inner liquid layer and leaves through the liquid outlet. The screw conveyor rotates at a differential speed and continuously conveys the wet crystals toward the conical section. The solids are discharged from the solids outlet for drying or further processing.

For calcium hypochlorite slurry, the key is to balance cake moisture, liquid clarity, crystal loss, corrosion resistance, and safe discharge stability.

Calcium hypochlorite slurry can be strongly oxidizing and corrosive, especially in chloride-containing alkaline systems. The wetted parts must be selected carefully.

Material selection should consider:

• pH value
• available chlorine content
• chloride concentration
• temperature
• oxidizing strength
• cleaning conditions
• long-term corrosion risk

For this type of process, common stainless steel may not always be enough. Material compatibility should be confirmed before final selection.

Crystal size directly affects separation efficiency, cake moisture, and solids loss.

Coarser and more uniform crystals are easier to separate. Fine crystals may stay in the liquid phase and reduce liquid clarity. If the particle size distribution is too fine, upstream crystallization control or process adjustment may be needed.

The feed solids content affects centrifuge capacity, torque load, and cake discharge stability.

Low-solids slurry may focus more on liquid clarification and crystal recovery. High-solids slurry requires stronger screw conveying capacity and reliable solids discharge.

Lower cake moisture can reduce downstream drying load, but it may require higher centrifugal force, longer residence time, optimized differential speed, and stable feed conditions.

For calcium hypochlorite, moisture control also affects drying safety, product stability, and storage performance.

Calcium hypochlorite processing requires attention to safe enclosed operation. The centrifuge should reduce leakage, splashing, and operator exposure.

Depending on the process and plant requirements, the design may include:

• sealed process housing
• corrosion-resistant sealing parts
• flushing interface
• safe discharge layout
• vibration monitoring
• temperature monitoring
• interlock protection
• explosion-proof or special electrical configuration when required by site conditions

Please provide:

• Material name and production route
• Feed flow rate
• Feed solids content
• Crystal size distribution
• Liquid phase composition
• pH value
• Available chlorine content
• Chloride concentration
• Operating temperature
• Target cake moisture
• Required liquid clarity
• Corrosion requirements
• Cleaning method
• Operating hours per day
• Downstream drying or conveying method
• Site safety requirements

Yes. It can be used for calcium hypochlorite slurry separation, crystal dewatering, and mother liquor removal. Suitability depends on crystal size, solids content, corrosion conditions, and target cake moisture.

Calcium hypochlorite slurry is often oxidizing, alkaline, and chloride-containing. The centrifuge must be selected with proper corrosion-resistant materials, sealing design, and safe process configuration.

Main factors include crystal size, solids content, liquid viscosity, density difference, bowl speed, differential speed, pond depth, feed stability, and corrosion-resistant configuration.

Yes. By removing mother liquor and reducing free liquid in the wet cake, the decanter centrifuge can help reduce downstream drying load and improve drying stability.

Please provide feed capacity, solids content, crystal size, pH, chloride concentration, available chlorine content, temperature, target cake moisture, and corrosion requirements.
