Then you have probably already missed CIPPE, OTC, ADIPEC, Trenchless Asia, Iran Oil Show, Russia oil show etc.
A few questions you may want the answer before you come to meet with us:
1) What is NEW
Using our equipment, or not yet, you may want to know what we have done, the R&D. Well if you have kept tune with GN news, or following my linkedin, then you may have already noted all this.
This year, GN have released decanter centrifuges for all other industries, food, waste oil, farming etc.
Now GN can manufactur most of the popular screens with composite material frame, which tested in Russia, operating time is more than 500hours.
2) Who is your client, who have used your euqipment.
If you have download our presentation, you may noticed we list some of them.
Baker Hughes, the case study can be found here.
Baroid, Scomi, EMEC, COSL
3) What can you do in my projects
We will let you know what we normally did, with your comments, we will find the solution for you.

Centrifuge Operation Optimization

If you have already knew how to choose a decanter centrifuge, and already done some test, found out some valuable data with sample testing, it is successfully handled by the decanter centrifuge, and well knowing the size, expected performance, right scale, solid & liquid properties seems good too. Then also have some professional operator to run it. All seems perfect, then with a running centrifuge, is there anything you need to take care?
Below info. maybe a hint.
-Feed Rate
-Bowl Speed
-Pool Depth
-Pool Length
-Conveyor /Bowl Differential Speed
-Feed Concentration
-Feed Temperature

Decanter Centrifuge
-Feed Rate
This adjustment is probably the easiest to carryout and does not involve stopping the centrifuge. The effect of feed rate on performance can be generalised as follows.
The higher the feed rate the less residence time the liquid has in the bowl hence the harder to
settle out possible ultra fines. Conversely the lower the feed rate the longer the liquor residence time and hence the easier to obtain clear liquors and in some instances 100% recovery of solids.
-Bowl Speed
Can be changed automatically with VFD drive, or manually with changing the belt / pulley, to change the G force.
Higher speed normally means better result, less moisture, more fine solids separated.
Whilst higher power consumption, more general wear and tear too.
-Pool Depth
This is not able to adjust while operating, normally rotate all the weir plates. Consequently the deeper pool depth, the shorter drying beach, then the wetter the discharged solids.
-Pool Length
The effective pool length can be adjusted by feeding in one of usually mo feed compartments. By feeding in the feed compartment nearest to the liquor discharge end of the bowl, the effective pool length is shortened hence the least residence time for the liquid. Respectively the longer the pool the longer the residence time
-Conveyor /Bowl Differential Speed
The conveyor to bowl differential (Delta RPM) is altered by changing the bowl speed due ro the
gearbox. The gearbox itself can be changed for a different ratio, though an expensive change
once in the field.
The lower delta rpm, the longer residence time, and the dryer cake, but also less capacity.
Too low delta rpm may cause overloading the conveyor with solids
-Feed Concentration
High concentration will cause poor separation.
-Feed Temperature
The hotter feed, the less viscous, and the better result.
Generally for many many years, the principles and philosophy of centrifuge operation is not changed, the subject of centrifuge operation is complexed, and also simple, with combination of application experience, testing, or even designning, you will have your own invaluable knowledge about material, desired separation results etc.
Still GN Solids Control team is ready to be even more helpful.

Choose a Decanter Centrifuge in Purpose

This is a how to article and discuss how to find a proper decanter centrifuge, basically two things need to be considered: economic expectations and technical requirements. It is essential to clearly define the process, and pass this information to the centrifuge supplier at initial briefings.
The prospective user should also clearly define exactly what the centrifugal process is required to achieve. Fluid charactor before and after treatement, density, viscosity, solids content etc.
The whole process in your plan, before and after centrifuge. Does the material require clarification, classifi cation, degritting, thickening, dewateri.rg, washing or separating and repulping, and is the process a solidliquid, liquid-liquid or a three phase liquid-liquid-so1id duty?
decanter centrifuge
Once the process is clearly defined, it is easier to identify variables such as the percentage of suspended solids, volumetric slurry throughput, solids throughput and the required product consistency at discharge.
Other consideration like G force, pH, for different applications.
Particle size, distribution arrd shape are also important factors when determining separation capabilities ald whether or not a batch or continuous centrifuge is the best option. Generally, materials which are predominaltly 45 microns and above and relatively incompactable are suitable for separation by filtration equipment, whereas finer or compactable materials lend themselves more to separation by sedimentation.
Decanter centrifuge are used to process unweighted and weighted, water-based and oil-based drilling fluids (muds). Mechanical energy is utilized to increase the gravitational force exerted on solids that are present in the mud system.oilfield Decanting Centrifuge are able to apply over 3,000 G-forces on the liquid/solids mixture, which separates the heavier solids from the lighter solids. Additionally, high G-forces separate fine solids from liquid.
Mechanical separation of solids from the mud system through the use of a decanter centrifuge is a highly-effective means of maintaining proper mud weight and viscosity. When used in conjunction with other Solids control equipment, decanting centrifuge enable users to maintain the mud properties within the prescribed range as per the drilling program. Typically,oilfield decanting centrifuge is the final processing units in the arrangement of solids control equipment.
GN Solids Control manufactures different type of decanter centrifuges, from 9in to 72in, and widely used in oil gas industry, now moving into other industries also.

Introduction of The GNDU2000 Series 20FT
Dewatering Unit provides a process of chemically enhanced configuration to remove the fine solids less than 5 microns from the water based drilling fluids. As it known that traditional solids control equipments like shale shaker, desander desilter, and decanter centrifuge will removes solids upper than 5 microns, for colloidal-size particles which is less than 5 microns will build up in the drilling mud system. To maintain the drilling mud properties, the operators have to dilute the drilling fluids with water, this consumes more water and create more drilling waste.
