Center Drive Thickener
Principle Overview
The thickener is mainly composed of two main parts: the circular thickener pool and the rake scraper.
The solid particles suspended in the slurry in the concentrator sink under the effect of gravity, and the upper part becomes clarified water, so that the solid-liquid can be separated.
In the thickener, the solid particles suspended in the slurry settle down by gravity, and the upper part of the thickener becomes clarified water, so that the solid and liquid can be separated. The sludge deposited at the bottom of the concentrator is continuously scraped by the rake scraper.
The sludge deposited at the bottom of the concentrator is continuously scraped and collected by the rake scraper to the center discharge port at the bottom of the concentrator, while the clarified water is discharged from the top edge of the concentrator.
The clarified water is overflowed from the upper edge of the thickener.
