3-phase separating decanter for industrial fluids

Optimize your waste oil and oily wastewater management with a high-speed decanter that efficiently separates industrial fluids into clean water and valuable resources, transforming waste into profit and enhancing sustainability.

Separates and Clarifies Industrial Fluids Efficiently

The 3-Phase Separating Decanter Centrifuge from GEA is specifically designed for the continuous separation and clarification of complex industrial fluids. This centrifuge excels in handling waste oil, MARPOL liquids, waste emulsions, and oily wastewater, producing reclaimed oil, purified water, and other useful byproducts.

Its operation is based on high-speed centrifugation using a horizontally oriented solid-wall bowl with a shallow pond design, optimizing separation efficiency. The unit features an innovative GEAsummationdrive with intelligent kinematics, allowing for high differential speeds and sensitive torque regulation even under variable feed conditions. This is complemented by the frequency-controlled variable speed motor, which enhances energy efficiency.

All contact parts are constructed from stainless steel, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance, with options for explosion-proof operation in volatile environments. With a compact form factor, it offers easy accessibility for maintenance and features a gentle feed geometry that minimizes wear and optimizes flocculation. It integrates seamlessly with existing production lines, offering gravity or pressure-based liquid discharge options.

Tailored for waste management companies and fluid recycling firms, this centrifuge supports automated operation via customizable control interfaces, ensuring smooth integration with plant automation systems and optimizing processing workflow.

Benefits

  • Enhances operational efficiency by automatically adjusting to varying feed conditions.
  • Reduces energy consumption with a variable speed motor, optimizing power usage.
  • Provides reliable separation in aggressive chemical environments with stainless steel construction.
  • Lowers maintenance costs with easy access to components and gentle feed geometry.
  • Facilitates compliance with environmental regulations through effective waste byproduct management.
