ARCHIMEDES SCREW SEPARATION PLANT FOR TREATING SLURRY

摘要

An Archimedes screw plant (10) for separating slurry. The plant (10) comprises: - a tubular sifting device (11); - a slurry feeding device (31); - a device (21) for evacuating the liquid fraction; - a device (19, 22) for evacuating the substantially dry separated solid. The plant (10) is characterized in that the device (11) comprises an upper compaction chamber (19) of the separated solid where a solid plug of product is formed. In addition, the tubular sifting device (11) has an upper opening (22) being provided with an auxiliary contrast element (40) for forming said solid plug of product.
