Brief introduction for decanter centrifuge

Centrifuge is the last stage separation equipment in the drilling mud cleaning system, it is most often used for clarification of liquid containing high concentrations of solids, removing solids from liquid.

Decanter centrifuge selection
There are many type and models centrifuge used in oil and gas field, the most important factor of the decanter centrifuge treating
capacity is the drum diameter and length. It is the main parameters to affect centrifuge capacity. Normally speaking, the bigger of the bowl size, the bigger of centrifuge max, capacity (hydraulic test). But it is not meant big bowl centrifuge is the best choice for bigger capacity. Customer should consider the material condition, the result they want to get after separation to choose the suitable model. For different mud condition, specially for drilling waste management, different centrifuge model suits.
