A centrifugal bowl separator contains a packet of conical discs having a series of feed discs with an intermediate disc of larger diameter disposed between each adjacent pair of feed discs. The substance to be treated enters a channel at the bottom of the disc packet and the channel discharges only above each feed disc. The material to be treated, namely both the heavy and the lighter components, flows in the spaces above the feed discs, and the heavier component is thrown against the underside of the intermediate disc and is flung from its larger periphery, while the lighter component flows along the upper surface of the feed disc and flows around its edge and out through the space below the feed disc. The spaces between the discs have conductive connection only at the radially outer area. |
