The present invention provides a method for operating a system comprising a centrifugal separator for separating at least one liquid phase and a sludge phase from a liquid feed mixture. The method is comprising alternating between a first and second mode of operation. The first mode of operation comprises the steps of a) supplying said liquid feed mixture to be cleaned to said centrifugal separator, said liquid feed mixture having a first temperature; and b) discharging at least one separated liquid phase from the centrifugal separator. The second mode of operation comprises the steps of c) stopping said supply of liquid feed mixture to the centrifugal separator; and d) decreasing the temperature of the liquid feed mixture to a second temperature and/or decreasing the flow rate of the liquid feed mixture. The present invention further provides a system for separating at least one liquid phase and a sludge phase from a liquid feed mixture.
