ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for clarifying the liquid portion of a slurry such as preflocculated sugar juice is disclosed. A tank is provided, and a downwardly opening conical tray is located within the tank to divide the tank into upper and lower portions. The outer periphery of the tray is spaced from the interior of the tank to provide an annular passageway therebetween. A vertical pipe is centrally located within the upper portion of the tank, and has an open bottom above the tray. Slurry to be clarified is supplied inside the vertical pipe. The slurry flows out through the open bottom of the vertical pipe to the upper portion of the tank outside the vertical pipe. At least some of the liquid portion of the slurry rises through the sedimented mud of the slurry and collects in the upper portion of the tank outside the vertical pipe above the level of the tank outside the vertical pipe above the level of the mud. Some of the slurry flows downwardly through the passageway between the tray and the tank into the lower portion of the tank. The remaining liquid portion of the slurry in the lower portion of the tank rises through the sedimented mud and collects immediately beneath the tray. Collected liquid from both the upper and lower portions of the tank is withdrawn from the tank.
