KOSUN Oilfield Drilling Decanter Centrifuge http://www.kosungroup.com/products/solids-control-equipment/decanter-centrifuge.html performs exceptionally well in separating solids from liquid in a controlled, efficient and continuous process. They are highly reliable. Capital cost, compared to the capacity of separation, is extremely attractive. Maintenance cost is low. These machines can handle a wide range of solid particles with diameters from 5 mm to a few microns. A special feature of our decanters is the ability to handle slurries with solid content from as low as 0.1% to more than 65%. The ability to accept variations in the feed more effectively is another special feature of our decanters.
Decanter centrifuges are divided into four sections:
Inlet Section - where the feed enters the decanter;
Screw Conveyor - which conveys and separates the solid phase from the fluids;
Solids Discharge Section - from where the solid "cakes" exit the unit;
Liquid Discharge Section - from where the liquid is discharged.
The Working Principle of Decanter Centrifuge:
Decanter centrifuges work by generating a centrifugal force that presses the solid particles outside against a rotating bowl, while the less dense liquid phase forms a concentric inner layer. The solid
