- (centrifugation) the process of separating substances of different densities by the use of a centrifuge
- (centrifugation) Spinning samples at high speeds, using centrifugal force (up to 500,000 times the force of gravity) to separate substances with very small differences in density or weight.
- (Centrifugation) Putting an object in rotation around a fixed axis, causing denser substances to separate out along the radial direction and the lighter objects will move to the centre (Wikipedia, "Centrifuge")
- (Centrifugation) A clarification method using centrifugal force to strain and clarify the wort during its cooling stage and the finished beer prior to racking.
- The centrifugation process involves applying a layer of liquid metal to the inside surface of a mould turning at high speed and solidifying the metal by continually cooling the mould. ...
