CENTRIFUGE

摘要

A centrifuge having a body and an arm (12) extending from the body, a chamber defined in the arm; a first tube (25) positioned within the chamber and comprising a porous sidewall; a second tube (26) positioned within the chamber, a first flow path defined by the first tube and second tube; a second flow path defined by the second tube; a first exit in communication with the first flow path for evacuating a first material from the arm; and a second exit in communication with the second flow path for evacuating a second material from the arm. As the sludge flows along an outer flow region defined by the first tube and interior sidewall of the arm, at least a portion of a liquid passes through the porous sidewall of the first tube and into a middle flow region, analogous to the first flow path.
