GN Separation is pleased to announce that four mini decanter centrifuges have been shipped to Europe for solid-liquid separation in mineral exploration mud applications. These decanter centrifuges will play a key role in efficiently separating solids from drilling mud, helping exploration companies improve fluid recovery and reduce environmental impact.
Decanter Centrifuge Overview
The full name of the decanter centrifuge is the decanter centrifuge, a widely used piece of equipment in industrial solid-liquid separation. Depending on material characteristics in different industries, GN decanter centrifuges are available in dewatering, separation, and clarifying types.
With advanced centripetal pump technology, GN decanter centrifuges can also perform three-phase separation of solids and two immiscible liquids, providing flexible solutions for various applications.
GN Decanter Centrifuge Series
| Series/Type | Beach Angle | Applicable Material Features |
|---|---|---|
| T Series Dewatering Type | 8.5° | Designed to remove liquid from solid-phase materials. Suitable for large particle sizes, high density differences, low viscosity, high concentration, and high treatment capacity. Materials like sludge or wastewater containing fine particles may require flocculants to condense fine particles before dewatering. |
| Y Series Separation Type | 15° | Combines the advantages of T and C series. Designed for high clarity in liquid and dryness in solids. Ideal for soft materials, small particles, small solid-liquid density differences, large viscosity, and low concentration. |
| C Series Clarifying Type | 20° | Used for difficult-to-separate materials with small particles, small density differences, moderate viscosity and concentration, requiring high clarity of the liquid. |
| LWS Series 3-Phase Type | According to material | Designed for solid-liquid-liquid separation. Solids must be heavier than liquids, and the two liquid phases must be immiscible with different densities. |
GN Decanter Centrifuge Features
