CENTRIFUGATION (SN-4)
The final centrifugal
separation step allows to obtain soap according to the specification
given and with a concentration of 60÷63% of T.F.M. (Total
Fatty Matter). 2 or 3 centrifugal separators can be installed,
according to the plant capacity.
When separated
from lye, soap is collected into a vessel from which is fed to
vaccum plant; the relative lye is recycled to washing liquor
preparation.
