This invention relates to an electrostatic
dehydration and solidification device for waste
cooking oil, comprising a rotary drum screen solidification unit, a
cyclone separation unit, and an electro-coalescing separation unit. The rotary drum screen solidification unit mainly includes a rotary drum screen and its internal screw drive, as well as a feed
pipe, a solids
discharge pipe, a receiving chamber, and a liquid outlet
pipe. The end of the liquid outlet pipe is connected to a
cyclone separation chamber. An overflow pipe is located at the top of the
cyclone separation chamber, and a water outlet pipe is located at the bottom. The end of the overflow pipe is connected to the electro-coalescing separation chamber. The upper part of the electro-coalescing separation unit's chamber is equipped with a liquid distribution plate, and four pairs of alternating positive and negative electrodes are arranged sequentially on the lower side. A circular tube runs through the liquid distribution plate and the
electrode mesh at the center of the chamber. The
electrode mesh is electrically connected to wires in the circular tube to generate an
electric field that promotes water droplet coalescence. This invention, through rotary drum screen solidification, cyclone preliminary
dehydration, and electro-coalescing deep
dehydration, is suitable for waste
cooking oil with a
moisture content ≥5%, improving separation efficiency by more than 20% and achieving an oil
recovery rate of over 95%.
