A fluid disposing system includes a centrifugal separator that centrifugally separates a liquid that is supplied, a reagent injecting apparatus coupled to the centrifugal separator and that injects a reagent into the centrifugal separator, a reagent supply module that supplies the reagent to the reagent injecting apparatus and a pipetting module provided on an upper side of the centrifugal separator and that feeds the fluid to the centrifugal separator.

A method for processing particles contained in a liquid biological sample is presented. The method uses a rotatable vessel for processing particles contained in a liquid biological sample. The rotatable vessel has a longitudinal axis about which the vessel is rotatable, an upper portion comprising a top opening for receiving the liquid comprising the particles, a lower portion for holding the liquid while the rotatable vessel is resting, the lower portion comprising a bottom, and an intermediate portion located between the upper portion and the lower portion, the intermediate portion comprising a lateral collection chamber for holding the liquid while the rotatable vessel is rotating. The method employs dedicated acceleration and deceleration profiles for sedimentation and re-suspension of the particles of interest.

A disc-type centrifuge is configured to use clean water as sealing water to be supplied at high pressure to a sealing mechanism unit. A pump is disposed on a circulation pathway connecting a sealing water tank, in which the sealing water is stored, and the sealing mechanism unit. The sealing water (clean water) is circulated between the sealing water tank and the sealing mechanism unit by the pump. The pump is connected to the drive shaft of a motor that supplies a driving force to a rotating shaft and bowl and is configured so that the pump is operated by receiving the driving force of the motor.

The present disclosure relates to baffle assemblies, nozzles, and related systems and methods for handling solid discharges of centrifuge separators. In one implementation, a two-piece baffle assembly configured to be positioned around discharge nozzles of a centrifuge separator includes a first segment and a second segment configured to attach to the first segment. The first segment includes a first baffle, a second baffle, and a first discharge gap formed between the first baffle and the second baffle. The second segment includes a frame having an arcuate shape, a third baffle extending inwardly relative to the arcuate frame, a fourth baffle extending inwardly relative to the arcuate frame, and a second discharge gap formed between the third baffle and the fourth baffle.

A method for separating a suspension includes dispensing a liquid suspension into a compartment of a first bag assembly. The first bag assembly is then rotated using a centrifuge so as to at least partially separate the suspension, the first bag assembly being disposed within a first insert that is housed within a first cavity of a rotor of the centrifuge, the first insert having an annular lip portion that freely projects out of the first cavity of the rotor by a distance of at least 1 cm.

A method for controlling the operation of a continuously or periodically operating centrifuge can be employed in the sugar industry for separating crystalline carbohydrates or sugar alcohols from a crystal suspension called a magma or a mother liquor. The magma has a varying content of fine grain that is dependent on the properties of the pretreatment and of the raw material. Variable control values are provided in a control device of the centrifuge. One or plurality of sensors are provided that carry out the measurements in electromagnetic, optical, acoustic, and/or conductive ways. These measurements that are conducted serve for determining the fine grain fraction of the magma. The measurements are supplied as measurement signals to the control device of the centrifuge. The control device automatically analyzes the measurement signals supplied to it and evaluates them with respect to the fine grain content of the magma. The control device changes the variable control values of the centrifuge as a function of this evaluation.
