Laboratory Feasibility and On-site Pilot Testing for Separation Applications
Decanter centrifuges and disk-stack separators are major capital investments no matter how large or small your company is. Installing and optimizing this kind of precision equipment might even involve making changes to your production processes or plant layout. And while you’ll see a return on your investment due to higher efficiency, drier solids, increased throughput, or less power used, you’ll make a more confident decision after seeing what to expect firsthand.
So how can you determine if a new two- or three-phase decanter centrifuge or other separation equipment is right for your application? The best way is to test your product or material in one before you buy. Spin testing in a laboratory and pilot testing at your facility are two ways to see what can be achieved with the equipment. Here’s an overview of each.
