Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge is the last stage equipment In drilling mud system and drilling waste management. The superiority of decanting centrifuge is embodied in the solids processing size. Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge is used to remove the solid particles with size 2-7 microns using the principle of centrifugal action, it is an ideal choice for separating particles in drilling mud.
The Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge technology is developed rapidly in recent years. It expand into a vast range of over 100 industrial . Further development since then has seen the refinement of machine design and control methods, improving its overall performance, which allows the system to respond quickly to varying feed conditions. (The following figure is the working principle of Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge )
The newest development in Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge technology aims to achieve enhanced control of the separation process occurring inside the decanter. The way in which manufacturers aim to address this is by utilising variable mechanical devices in the rotating part of the decanter centrifuge.
To control the separation process, the operational parameters should be transferred from the rotating part to the stationary part of the decanter whilst also constantly controlling and maintaining the mechanical device inside the process region. This can be achieved using hydraulic and electronic transfer systems. ( The following figure is the BWLW 365 VFD Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge in BEIJING CIPPE 2019 )
There are many Solid Bowl Decanter Centrifuge manufacturers in China. They have adapted these new designs into industrial standard equipment. This advanced technology has allowed decanter centrifuges to operate up to 250 cubic metres per hour and has developed numerous designs such as the Z8E decanter, known as the world’s largest decanter centrifuge with an adjustable impeller, which supplies a torque of 24,000 newton metres. Other designs can reduce power consumption by up to thirty percent due to a large slurry discharge, and are best utilised in the water treatment industry.
