Specialized decanter vessels for liquid-liquid separation processes.
The decantor vessels offered by Goel Equipments form part of their broader glassware portfolio (often within the reactors / vessel offerings). While explicit content is limited, these vessels are intended to facilitate separation of phases (liquid–liquid, liquid–solid) by decanting or settling under gravity. They are constructed of borosilicate / scientific glass to maintain chemical compatibility, optical clarity, and resistance to corrosion. Their geometry and nozzles are customized to match the separation process design.
While Goel does not publish fixed specs for decantors, typical parameters can be assumed as:
• Material: Borosilicate glass (transparent, corrosion resistant)
• Volume / size: Custom per user process
• Nozzles / ports: Inlet, outlet, sampling or draining ports, possibly overflow ports
• Geometry: Tall vertical cylindrical or tapered cone bottoms for settling
• Operating conditions: Vacuum to mild pressure, depending on use
• Customization: Internal baffles, dip pipes, weirs, support structures
• Design margins: Stress relief zones, thermal gradients, mechanical support design
Decantor vessels are used wherever a process requires gentle phase separation or removal of supernatant liquid without disturbing settled solids. Typical uses include:
– Gravity settling of solids from suspensions
– Liquid–liquid phase separation (e.g. aqueous / organic)
– Clarification steps in chemical or pharmaceutical processes
– Feed/effluent separation in glass process lines
– Pre-treatment or purification stages in small pilot plants
