摘要:
CRUDS SUBSTANTIALLY FREED FROM WHEY ARE FED INTO A VERTICAL TOWER AND EXTRUDED UNDER PRESSURE THROUGH A PLURALITY OF APERTURES IN THE BASE OF THE TOWER, AND THE CURDS ARE SUBJECTED TO A LATERAL SPREADING ACTION AND TO A LATERAL COMPRESSIVE ACTION AS THEY TRAVEL DOWNWARDLY THROUGH THE TOWER TOWARD THE EXTRUSION APERTURES. THE EXTRUDING PRESSURE MAY BE PROVIDED BY APPLYING PNEUMATIC PRESSURE TO A HEAD SPACE IN THE TOWER, AND THE EXTRUDED CRUDE MAY BE CUT INTO SEPARATE LENGTHS BY CUTTING MEANS LOCATED BELOW THE TOWER BASE.
摘要:
When the rotor of a sludge centrifuge is to be emptied of its contents during operation, its peripheral sludge outlets are opened to discharge at least part of the settled sludge; and while liquid is still retained in the rotor, its balance condition is determined by a sensing means. If the latter senses a predetermined degree of unbalance at the prevailing speed of the rotor, as when sludge adheres to the rotor wall and thus fails to discharge, a suitable control is signalled to prevent complete emptying of the rotor at the prevailing speed, thereby avoiding possible damage to the rotor.

The liquid to be heated is formed by suitable means into a jet having an annular cross-section and which is free from contact with any surface; and means are provided for transferring to the annular jet electromagnetic energy uniformly distributed around the periphery of the jet as viewed in said cross-section.

A liquid component separated in a centrifugal rotor is thrown therefrom into a surrounding housing where the level of the liquid component is controlled by an element responsive to changes in such level and operable to regulate the supply of a superatmospheric pressure gas to the interior of the housing, the latter having a bottom outlet for discharging the liquid component and which is subjected to a counterpressure.

A receiving container intermittently supplies liquid to a unit, and a discharging container collects and discharges liquid intermittently leaving this unit. Means are provided for adding values corresponding to the liquid quantities in the respective containers, and possibly in the unit also, to obtain a total value dependent upon the sum of these quantities; and the flow of liquid supplied to the receiving container or discharged from the discharging container is regulated to arrest changes in said total value, thereby equalizing the flows of liquid to the receiving container and from the discharging container.
