Zusammenfassung:A solid bowl decanter centrifuge of the scroll discharge type comprises a solid bowl which rotates at a first speed, and a scroll conveyor which is rotated within the bowl at a second, slightly different speed for conveying separated solids to a solids discharge end of the bowl. The suspension to be centrifuges, substantially unmixed with a flocculant, is introduced by a stationary feed pipe into a feed compartment which is a radial passage in the conveyor. The feed compartment provides high turbulence and shear forces which mix and expel the suspension and flocculant into the bowl before flocs have formed.
