Invertible filter centrifuge including a solids drier

An invertible filter centrifuge apparatus for separating a solids-liquid mixture comprising (a) an invertible filter centrifuge, having a sealing lid (b) a solids dryer, (c) sensors, and (d) a common control device, wherein (i) solids are dehumidified and dried in the invertible filter centrifuge by means of centrifugation, pressure gas compression and heat convection with the aid of a flow of drying gas, and the solids are dehumidified and dried in the solids dryer by means of heat convection with the aid of a flow of drying gas, (ii) the invertible filter centrifuge and the solids dryer are connected to one another to form a unit via a closure device that separates the invertible filter centrifuge and solids dryer in a sealed relationship, (iii) the sensors are arranged on the invertible filter centrifuge and on the solids dryer to measure the degree of dehumidification and drying, respectively, prevailing there, (iv) the common control device being actuatable by signals generated by the sensors and regulating operating data, and (v) the control device carries out the regulation of the operating data automatically so that operating times for the dehumidification and drying in the invertible filter centrifuge and in the solids dryer are coordinated with one another and at the same time the mechanical centrifugal energy and the thermal energies in the invertible filter centrifuge and solids dryer are distributed in an economically optimum manner.
