Some Details about KOSUN Oil Drilling Fluids Decanter Centrifuge

Oct 28, 2013

KOSUN Decanter Centrifuge can meet with different requirements of mud treatment under various drilling conditions, that can do sedimentation and separation for particles more than 2μm. After treatment, the mud can achieve ideal viscosity and proportion, results in better recycling, high efficiency, saving and environment protection.

KOSUN Decanter Centrifuge is a piece of equipment, generally driven by an electric motor ( some older models were spun by hand ), that puts an object in rotation around a fixed axis, applying a force perpendicular to the axis. A centrifuge is also used to separate the components of blood in blood banks. The centrifuge works using the sedimentation principle, where the centripetal acceleration causes denser substances to separate out along the radial direction ( the bottom of the tube ). By the same token, lighter objects will tend to move to the top.

KOSUN Decanter Centrifuge is used in separating suspension of solid phase with particle diameter ( d≥2μm ) for drilling mud and fluids handling. Ruggedly built for oilfield and industrial services, it is especially effective in environmentally sensitive areas. It delivers high fluid-recovery rates and efficient solids control to significantly reduce the costs of makeup fluids and disposal. The centrifuge must test the dynamic balance for smooth operation over long periods.

Features and Benefits

1. Innovative design includes longer bowl, allowing drilling fluids to thread through more slowly, thus resulting in drier solids and finer separation point;

2. Big bowl offers big volume. It also generates high G force;

3. Stainless steel bowl, scroll, compartment are available and covered with corrosion-proof coating so as to have longer lifespan;

4. Tungsten carbide scroll points with wide spacing flights at tapered end create a finer layer of conveyed solids for consistent, uniform separation and maximum solids control efficiency.

5. German FAG or Swedish SKF brand bearings are available;

6. Electrical Components complies with SIEMENS/Schneider ATEX or IEC Ex.

7. Screw pump, centrifugal pump and feeding pump are provided to meet different applications.

KOSUN has been providing the drilling fluids solids control equipment and solids control system for more than 20 years, not only can provide the shale shakermud cleaner, desander, desilter, but can manufacture drilling waste management equipment.
