The principle of cleaning used oil with a centrifuge when the mixture of different substances rotates at a very high speed in a closed path (
In our case, a closed container)
Substances with higher mass tend to move to the outermost path, and lighter particles find themselves closest to the axis of rotation.
The same principle is used for centrifuge oil cleaning.
The old oil containing impurities and dirt was sent into the centrifuge.
The centrifuge has a rotor with a very high speed (
Number of revolutions per minute)
It pushes impurities to the wall of the container that holds the rotor.
This is because the mass of impurities is greater than the mass of the oil particles.
Use the appropriate extraction method so that impurities and clean oil are properly separated and the oil can be re-usedused.
These filter systems are also available for small-
Expand the biofuel unit to remove any impurities.
Image source: the oil used for cleaning with centrifuge for diesel process can be carried out using various systems.
You can build your own centrifuge system, or you can buy a commercial centrifuge system in the market.
Two videos are released in the "References" section below, which will help you better understand how the various centrifuge systems work.
The principle used to purify used oil is the same as any biofuels and is suitable for all centrifuge filtration systems.
The difference is the extraction process of separating oil from impurities.
It is so simple to process the oil used step by step using the centrifuge system.
The system and mechanism is very simple and can be used by anyone to recover old oil or as one of the last steps in the production of biofuels in the home.
Maintenance of the centrifuge oil cleaning system once the oil is cleaned using the centrifuge system, it is necessary to clean the centrifuge by removing dirt, sludge, and collecting other impurities on the wall of the centrifuge system.
