Abstract: An apparatus may include a centrifuge bowl rotatable about its longitudinal axis, a discharge unit positioned to receive discharge fluid from the centrifuge bowl, a diverter fluid circuit in communication with the discharge unit, a measurement region of the diverter fluid circuit with a narrower diameter than a cross section of the discharge unit, and the diverter fluid circuit oriented to direct a portion of the discharge fluid from the discharge unit to the measurement region

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a centrifugal separator (1), which comprises a rotatable drum (5) having a wall (50), an annular chamber (7) defined along the longitudinal axis (49) of the rotatable drum (5) in a portion adjoining to the wall (50), wherein a mixture of substances in the liquid phase and in the solid phase is movable longitudinally through the annular chamber (7), and a discharging station (13) for discharging the solid phase. The discharging station (13) comprises a vibrating unit (300) for agitating the solid phase. The vibrating unit (300) comprises a half-drum (302) and a vibrating device (304) adapted to vibrate the half-drum (302).

Abstract: A continuous vacuum transport system and method transport cuttings from a filtration system to a collection location. The filtration system discharges cuttings into a discharge manifold. The cuttings travel though a vacuum conduit into a vacuum hub. A control system controls holding tanks in the vacuum hub to fill one of the holding tanks while emptying one of the holding tanks. The cuttings flow from the vacuum hub through a transport conduit to a discharge end. The discharge end feeds into the connection location.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a centrifugal separator (1), which comprises a rotatable drum (5) having a wall (50), an annular chamber (7), defined along the longitudinal axis (49) of the rotatable drum (5) and bordering the wall (50), an annular screw feeder (90) accommodated rotatably in the annular chamber (7) for moving a mixture of substances in the liquid phase and in the solid phase longitudinally through the annular chamber (7), and separation nets (100) arranged in the wall (50) of the rotatable drum (5). The separation nets (100) have meshes for filtering the solid phase from the liquid phase by rotation of the drum (5). The separation nets (100) are movable relative to the wall (50).
