Centrifuge
Device using rotation to separate materials based on density
The centrifuge is a device using rotation to separate materials based on density using constant force for a set period of time. Centrifugation allows the product to be separated from waste materials and impurities if they have differing densities. This process step reduces the amount of waste material in later phases of the production process.
