Vegetable Oil Filtration

A centrifuge spins all of the particles and water out of filter vegetable oil before it is used as fuel. This unique and advanced design allows for superior contamination holding capacity, more robust construction, ease of cleaning, exceptionally reliable operation, plus adjustable flow rate to accommodate feedstock. The setup uses a container to feed the centrifuge, a container underneath to collect the clean oil, and a container to hold overflow. Add a heater to increase efficiency and speed of filtration, most especially in lower temperature environments.

			High Capacity Rotor chamber holds over half a liter of waste, keeping cleaning frequency down. Oil is cleaned thoroughly in a single pass.
			Gravity Feed No pumps are required to supply the centrifuge, so nothing wears out with continuous operation, filtering thousands of gallons.
			Oil Heater Powerful bolt on heater channels 1000 Watts of heat to instantly thin vegetable oil, increasing the speed and efficiency of filtration.

Speed of Filtration?

The speed of filtration is variable on the quality/consistency and temperature of the oil. If you are choosing good oil to begin with, and it is warm enough outside that the oil is fluid, you will be able to filter about 10-15 gallons to under 10 micron in 1 hour. If you are settling the oil before running it through, and/or heating the oil with the bolt on heater, you can get 50-100%+ more speed at 15-25 gallons per hour. The Booster Cone focuses the oil before it goes into the centrifuge which allows it to work even more effeciently, as the chart below shows. Overall people are very pleased with the speed, ease, and quality of oil filtration using a WVO Centrifuge.
