18 inch Decanter Centrifuge is the five-stage solid-phase particle control equipment in the Mud Recycling System for Drilling Rig. It uses the principle of centrifugal sedimentation to separate the suspension in the drilling fluid. Balance the viscosity and specific gravity of the drilling fluid, recover the heavy gold stone powder in the drilling fluid, and save the drilling cost;
Normally, the larger the diameter of the Decanter Centrifuge Drum, the larger the processing capacity of the Decanter Centrifuge, the longer the length of the Decanter Centrifuge Drum, the lower the solid phase liquid rate discharged from the Decanter Centrifuge, the greater the ratio of length and diameter of the Decanter Centrifuge processing effect is better, of course, the price of Decanter Centrifuge will be more expensive.
18 inch Decanter Centrifuge is an important equipment for the separation of solids and fluid in the Oil and Gas Industry(In the Mud Recycling System for drilling rig, can install 1 pc of 18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with Middle Speed or 2 pcs :18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with Middle Speed and 18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with high Speed), Drilling Waste management Industry(18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with high Speed with bigger centrifugal force), Trenchless Industry(Usually, 18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with Middle Speed is more in common use), Mining Industry(18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with Middle Speed and 18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with high Speed by the request) and etc; 18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with Middle Speed can separate 5-7μm solid phase particles. 18 inch Decanter Centrifuge with High Speed can separate 2-5μm solid phase particles.
