# '''Accelerate to feed speed''': The basket is accelerated to a speed suitable for feeding. | |||
# '''Feeding''': The feed solid - liquid suspension is added to the basket via feed pipe. | |||
# '''Accelerate to spin speed''': Accelerate the basket to a high rpm to produce a high ‘G’ to drive the filtration process. | |||
# '''Washing''': If required the filter cake is washed via wash pipe. | |||
# '''Drying''': Continue spinning at high ‘G’ to dry the filter cake. The filtrate leaves via outlet. | |||
# '''Deceleration''': Slow the basket to a speed suitable for cake discharge. | |||
# '''Discharge''': Discharge the cake through the bottom of the basket using the plough mechanism. | |||
