Tubular Clarifier Centrifuge rotates thanks to some kind of motor drive. It is based on a very simple geometry: it is formed by a tube, of length several times its diameter, rotating between bearings at each end. The process stream enters at the bottom of the centrifuge and high centrifugal forces act to separate out the solids. The bulk of the solids will adhere on the walls of the bowl, while the liquid phase exits at the top of the centrifuge.
As this type of system lacks a provision of solids rejection, it is a batch-type centrifuge, continuous feeding, continuous supernatant liquid flowing out, solids can only be removed by stopping the machine, dismantling it and scraping or flushing the solids out manually.
Tubular Clarifieres have max g force (max RCF), dewatering capacity, but limited solids capacity.
