Thomas Broadbent & Sons Ltd products

Broadbent commission new decanter centrifuge pilot plant for producing Bio-Plastics. With many years experience in designing and manufacturing centrifuges for handling polymers separation, we were successfully selected to supply a bespoke engineered solution for handling a new derivative of Bio-Plastic. We see this as a major advancement in process technology and key for future renewable resource

Just recently installed and commissioned 2 large industrial screen bowl decanter centrifuges in Far East. The units are constructed from Duplex Stainless Steel (wetted parts) and incorporate latest screen product wash system.

Broadbent have recently completed the design, manufacture and supply of 8 off large decanter centrifuges for processing BPA (BisPhenol-A) for a prominent Chinese Petrochem Company on their phase 1 project. The process requires separating and washing, BPA crystals from a phenol liquid, at elevated temperatures and pressures.

The Mosaic Company developed the capability to increase the feed to the K2 Potash mill dramatically. To accommodate the additional feed, centrifuge and dryer capacity needed to increase unless the centrifuges could also decrease the load to the dryers. Testing showed the load to the dryers could be reduced by increasing the dewatering efficiency of the centrifuges upstream, however, with the conventional centrifuge design, lowering the moisture also meant reducing the feed and overall capacity of the centrifuges. The existing mill had limited space to add additional centrifuges.
