Abstract
A pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator for removing moisture includes: an inner basket into which slurry is introduced; an outer basket surrounding the inner basket; a pressurization chamber disposed in the outer basket; and a gas supplying portion for supplying gas into the pressurization chamber, wherein the gas supplied to the pressurization chamber is ejected from the pressurization chamber toward a dehydration product positioned between the outer basket and the pressurization chamber.
Claims9
A pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator for removing moisture, the pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator comprising:
- an inner basket rotating along with an inner basket shaft and connected to a slurry supplying pipe;
- an outer basket rotating along with an outer basket shaft and surrounding the inner basket;
- a pressure-supplying chamber disposed inside the outer basket and outside the inner basket;
- a washing water supplying nozzle that supplies washing water to the inner basket;
- and
- a gas supplying pipe connected to the pressure-supplying chamber,
- wherein the pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator is configured to remove moisture from a slurry through perforated walls of the inner basket and the outer basket by a centrifugal force by rotation of the inner basket shaft and the outer basket shaft,
- wherein the inner basket shaft reciprocates to push out a dehydration product toward an area between the outer basket and the pressure-supplying chamber, and
- wherein the pressure-supplying chamber ejects a gas toward the dehydration product positioned between the outer basket and the pressure-supplying chamber through a pressurization gas path formed in a circumferential surface of the pressure-supplying chamber.
