Pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator
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.
1. 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.
2. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 1 , wherein the pressurization gas path comprises at least one of meshes, slits, and holes.
3. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 1 , wherein a slurry supplying portion hole, through which the slurry supplying pipe for supplying the slurry to the inner basket penetrates, is formed in the pressure-supplying chamber.
4. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 1 , wherein the gas moves outward from a central portion of the pressure-supplying chamber.
5. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 1 , wherein the pressure-supplying chamber includes:
a pressure-supplying chamber rotating portion that is fixed to the outer basket and rotates together with the outer basket;
a pressure-supplying chamber fixing portion that is disposed in the pressure-supplying chamber rotating portion and is fixed without rotating; and
a rotating-fixing connection portion disposed between the pressure-supplying chamber rotating portion and the pressure-supplying chamber fixing portion.
6. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 5 , wherein the gas supplying pipe is connected to the pressure-supplying chamber fixing portion.
7. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 5 , wherein the rotating-fixing connection portion fixes the pressure-supplying chamber fixing portion while allowing rotation of the pressure-supplying chamber rotating portion.
8. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 1 , wherein an interval between the pressure-supplying chamber and the outer basket decreases as distance from the inner basket increases.
9. The pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator of claim 1 , wherein the dehydration product is continuously discharged from the pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator.
