Recently one unit of sludge vacuum pump and decanter centrifuge are ready for shipment for environmental solution.


The mini vacuum pump model number is GNSP-10B, the max capacity for water is 10m3/h, for oil sludge, industry waste, drilling waste transfer, the flow rate will be different according to material conditions. The inlet and outlet size is 3 inch (89mm), vacuum degree is 85Kpa/25 inch Mercury column, the max suction horizontal distance is 50m, max discharge horizontal distance is 500m, the max suction depth (vertically) is 3 ~5m according to density and viscosity, the max discharge depth vertically is 5~ 10m, the max solids content is up to 80%, it can be used to transfer high solids content material, and mx allowance solids size is 50mm. The vacuum pump is 100% air operated, required pressure is 550 Kpa ~ 690 Kpa(80~100 PSI), air demand is 4.3m3/min (150CFM). Working principal of vacuum pump for suction process is that the compressed air enters into the vacuum generator, which generates negative pressure in the pump body and suck the materials from the suction port. The discharge valve is closed. The suction time and discharged is set by the user according to their requirement. they can select automatically operation method or manually operation method as requirement.


The discharge process of the sludge vacuum pump is that closed the vacuum generator valve, the air flow directly enter into the pump body, the discharge valve is opening automatically, and the positive pressure will push the material along with the air flow out of the pump body, at this moment, the suction valve is closed.
The decanter centrifuge can be used for solids liquid separation for industry waste water treatment, dewatering centrifuge, waste separation, oil sludge treatment, etc. applications. If you need a decanter centrifuge, pls contact with GN sales engineer to select a model.

GNOST-15B Oil Sludge Treatment Package Equipment for Beijing Client

Recently one unit of GNOST-15B Oil Sludge Treatment Package Equipment are ready for shipment to Beijing client. The package including:


1 unit of oil sludge separation shale shaker GNZS594F, with spray system and sealing cover. The function is to separate the coarse solids and reduce solids content from oil sludge, by mixing with proper chemicals, the oil will be easily removed from solids.


1 unit of big bowl big volume 2 phase decanter centrifuge GNLW554ET-VFD, to separate fine solids from oil sludge, by mixing with proper chemicals, the ultra fine solids can be easily separated, the mixture liquid with oil and water will be collected in a tank for further treatment.
1 unit of big bowl 3 phase decanter centrifuge GNSX554ET-VFD to separate oil, water and solids
The whole oil sludge treatment package including pre-mixing modular, coarse solids separation modular, solids liquid 2 phase separation modular, solids oil water 3 phase separation modular.


The 3 phase decanter centrifuge working principle is sedimentation, the solid with specific weight precipitate.When the material enters the high speed rotating bowl, the oil sludge rotates synchronously with the bowl. Based on the different specific gravity and centrifugal force, the solid with the bigger gravity with biggest centrifugal force, the heavy phase liquid (water) and the light phase liquid (oil). The centrifugal force is becoming less from outside to inside, one concentric solid layer and two liquid layers are formed. Solids are pushed out and liquids are removed from their respective nozzles.
When the client’s required result of recovered oil, water and discharged solids is not very high, 3 phase decanter centrifuge can be used to replace the package of 2 phase decanter centrifuge plus 3 phase disc centrifuge. If they want the better treatment result, 3 phase disc centrifuge should be applied to separate oil and water.

Mini Sludge Vacuum Pump for Oil Spill Recovery

GN produced mini sludge vacuum pump is used for oil spill recovery. The spilled oil mixed with earth, solids will be collected by mini sludge vacuum pump and transfer to oil sludge treatment unit for oil recovery and solids safely discharge. To get the oil recovery, firstly we need to dilute the waste sludge ,mixed with chemicals and well agitated, then the oil sludge will be treated by 3 phase decanter centrifuge to separate oil, water and solids; if the client need better quality recovered oil, we can use 2 phase decanter centrifuge to separate solids and liquid, then use 3 phase disc centrifuge to separate oil, water and solids.


Depends on transfer capacity, we have GNSP-40B, GNSP-20B, GNSP-10B,GNSP-05B with 40m3/h,20m3/h, 10m3/h,5m3/h for option. The GNSP-05B sludge vacuum pump can be used as an ideal solution for the cleaning of residual waste inside the cabin and the transportation of loose materials. The mini sludge vacuum pump can be used to transport and remove liquids with high solids content, oil sludge with high viscosity and clean bulk solid materials. And the pump is 100% air operated, without needing electric power supply.
Features of GN sludge vacuum pump:

  1. Suitable for hazardous area application, no need electric power, need air supply.
  2. Suction distance( horizontal) up to 50m, discharge distance (horizontal) up to 500 ~ 1000m
  3. Allowed solids size maximum is up to 50mm to 75mm, the sludge solids content up to 80%
  4. Automatically and continuously working is for option to save labor cost.
  5. Compact design, easy to move and can be used if space is limited
