Sedimentation is affected by particle concentration. From everyday experience, the effect of sedimentation due to the influence of the Earth's gravitational field (g ¼ 981 cm s −2) versus the increased rate of sedimentation in a centrifugal field (g > 981 cm s −2) is apparent.To give a simple but illustrative example, crude sand particles …

Centrifugal Separators: Working Principle And Design
If you've ever bought Italian salad dressing, you understand the fundamental principles of sedimentation and centrifugal separation. Before you dig into your salad, you give that bottle a good hard shake, mixing together the vinegar, olive oil and herbs. As you munch, the herbs sink to the bottom (sedimentation) and the vinegar and oil form ...

DCS – An Overall Conclusion. Differential Centrifugal Sedimentation is an extremely powerful tool for high resolution particle characterisation, especially in the size range 0.002 micron (2nm) to 10 micron. It enables very narrow distributions of particles differing in size by less than 2% to be resolved, and hence extremely small differences ...
