An item of solids-removal equipment that removes fine and ultrafine solids. It consists of a conical drum that rotates at 2000 to 4000 rpm. Drilling fluid is fed into one end and the separated solids [..]

See 'gas centrifuge process'.

1887, "a centrifuge machine," originally a machine for separating cream from milk, from French centrifuge, from noun use of adjective meaning "centrifugal" (1801), from Modern Lati [..]

A rotating vessel for uranium enrichment. The heavier U238 isotopes in the UF6 gas tend to concentrate at the walls of the centrifuge as it spins. Scopes are placed inside the centrifuge to selectivel [..]

A machine used to enrich uranium by rapidly spinning a cylinder (known as a rotor and containing uranium hexafluoride gas) inside another cylinder (called the casing).

A cylinder spinning at high speed to physically separate gas components of slightly different mass, e.g. uranium hexafluoride with U-235 and U-238 atoms.

A machine that spins a sample at high speeds to separate molecules from solution, or particles and solids from liquids and immiscible (unmixable) liquids.

(n) an apparatus that uses centrifugal force to separate particles from a suspension(v) rotate at very high speed in order to separate the liquids from the solids

a machine that rotates (spins) rapidly and uses centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities. You've used a centrifuge before. Have you ever watched a washing machine on spin cycle? A washing machine uses centrifugal force in the spin cycle to separate the water from your clothes.

A mechanical device that uses centrifugal or rotational forces to separate solids from liquids.

(Noun) A machine that rotates at high speed that is used to separate materials of different densities. (Verb) To rotate at high speed.

a machine that uses centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities, to remove moisture, or to simulate gravitational effects

A machine that separates contents of various densities, such as plasma from blood, by spinning at such a high speed that the matter with the highest density is forced away from the center. Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP)
