“…The separation performance criterion is represented by five subcriteria: dryness of the solid product, effectiveness of solid washing, quality of the liquid product, tendency of the equipment to cause crystal breakage, and capacity factor. The evaluation of the first four subcriteria is based on the information and experimental results from , whereas the last subcriterion is estimated based on the recent experimental results from . It is necessary to describe that the capacity factor ( Σ ) is an indication of separation performance of an equipment compared to a continuous gravity settling tank, which relates the volumetric flow rate ( Q ) to the gravity settling velocity ( v g ) as described in Eq.…”

For the first time, a two‐stage decision support framework for equipment selection, applied to biomass separation, is presented. In the first stage, the framework evaluates from a number of equipment based on the process requirements and outputs only those that offer a technically feasible separation. In the second stage, the analytic hierarchy process is applied for performing a multicriteria decision analysis to select amongst the feasible equipment based on separation performance and energy consumption criteria. This approach systematically considers the relative importance of those different alternatives and selection criteria by pairwise comparisons. The output of the framework is an overall ranking of equipment as well as a sensitivity analysis of the results for different weighting of the criteria. These results can be used to equip practitioners in the field of bioseparations with a tool for making more consistent and better‐informed equipment selection decisions.

Separation by density difference, compaction, and drainage is presented, along with formulas developed for bottle centrifuges, solid wall centrifuges, disk centrifuges, and hydrocyclones. The Σ‐concept development and several practical variants are discussed. Liquid–liquid separation interface location formulas are reviewed. An updated performance chart for selection and design is provided. Models for centrifuge energy consumption based on Σ‐concept are discussed. Centrifuge components, including a breakdown of power and energy losses with applicable information for centrifuges, are represented. Centrifuge materials of construction and their corrosion, erosion, and strength characteristics are reviewed. Stresses generated owing to rotation and process materials, abrasion resistance, and noise generated by centrifuges are discussed. The various types of sedimentation and filtration equipment are reviewed. Examples of use, rates, and performance of bottle; disk; decanter; preparation; zonal; tubular; perforated basket; inverting filter; conical; and continuous single‐ and multistage pusher centrifuges are reviewed. For a brief discussion of gas centrifuges and their use in uranium enrichment, please see the previous editions.
