Centrifuges can be used for enrichment of weapon grade nucular materials, so such information is controled in many cases. Centrifuges useful for seperating out diesel fuels (etc) are on the market and can be pruchased. They require extreemly high RPM tapered bowls driven by increase speed drive trains, the RPM must be controled to provide for seperation for the various materials at specific levels in the bowl. It takes many prototypes to determin the real life amount of taper, RPM, size, height of rim, and a long list of other items. The ones that work have a long list of patents to protect all these hard to develop technologies. So.. it is not unexpected that you are finding this information hard to find. We ran all our diesel through centrifuges in the US Navy, I would think the type we used would be on the market and would possibly be excellent at removing any kind of solids or jells out of biodiesel... BUT I have zero knowledge on the subject, I'm only commenting on the difficulty of getting information. The worst suggestion of your lifetime may be the catalyst to the grandest idea of the century, never let suggestions go unsaid nor fail to listen to them.
