What are the advantages of using a decanter centrifuge in the lithium battery industry?

Decanter centrifuges bring multiple prominent advantages for lithium battery manufacturing and lithium resource recovery:

1. Continuous 24-hour operation: It enables automatic, uninterrupted slurry feeding and discharging, matching the large-scale production rhythm of lithium material factories and improving production efficiency.
2. Excellent separation performance: Efficiently separates solids from liquid for lithium ore, LFP/NCM precursors and black mass leachate. Our LWS three-phase decanter can separate organic phase, aqueous phase and solid residue simultaneously to recover valuable solvents.
3. Customizable corrosion & wear resistance: Wetted parts can be made of 316L stainless steel or 2205/2507 duplex steel to avoid metal ion pollution of battery materials. Scroll blades can be fitted with tungsten carbide coating or hard alloy inlay to resist abrasion from hard lithium powder.
4. Closed structure with optional CIP cleaning: The fully enclosed design reduces escape and loss of high-value lithium powder. CIP function is available for batch switching and effectively lowers cross-contamination risks.
5. High automation level: Equipped with Siemens PLC and HMI, with real-time monitoring of vibration, bearing temperature and oil pressure. Reserved communication interfaces support connection to factory SCADA systems.
6. Resource recycling & cost saving: Recover process mother liquor, lithium salts and solvents, cutting raw material consumption and wastewater treatment burden.
