METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR CONTINUOUS REGULATION OF THE SPECIFIC-SLIME GRAVITY OR SLIME CONCENTRATION IN SETTLING CHAMBERS

摘要

A method and apparatus for continuously regulating the slurry-weight or slurry-concentration of the discharge for wet-mechanical separated solids from suspensions in which a discharge cross-section of a separation is controlled as the slurry is discharged including means for measuring the viscosity of a discharge slurry formed from separated solids for altering the cross-sectional opening of a discharge member the separator by either increasing or decreasing the discharge cross-section in relation to the slurry viscosity and acccordingly the slurry weight is retained constant and at an approximate predetermined value.
