SAREX - Model MX1500 -Decanter Centrifuge

The SAREX ® MX-1500 is a modular three phase CENTRIFUGE SYSTEM for processing oily sludges from:

• Refinery K048-K052 and F037/F038 streams
• Oil production
• Chemical production
• Waterway bottoms
• Tanks and ponds sludges

• Substantial hydraulic volume reduction, generally greater than 80 percent.
• Recovered oil for reuse.
• RCRA exempt process under 40 CFR 261.4 and 261.6 exclusions.
• Reliable process results.
• Proven technology; this system has processed over 5,000,000 bbls of oily sludge to date.
• System is mobile, compact and easy to operate.
• Meets benzene NESHAP requirements.

This system has processed over 5,000,000 bbls of oily waste since 1986 using the SAREX ® MX-1500 CENTRIFUGE.

The SAREX ® MX-1500 has been utilized in over 50 projects processing from 2,000 bbls to over 500,000 bbls per year.

Over 750,000 bbls of oil have been recovered using the SAREX ® MX-1500 CENTRIFUGE.

• Working area of 20 feet by 60 feet.
• 480 VAC, 3 phase, 60 Hz, 300 amp. startup.
• Up to 150 psig, 2,500 lb/hr plant steam.
• 15 psig, 10 gpm plant water.
• Safe lighting for non-daylight use
• Recovered oil and wastewater storage containers.
• Non reinforced 6 inch thick concrete pad with sump.

The CENTRIFUGED solids will pass the EPA 40 CFR 260, 2645, 265 and 270 Paint Filter Test.

The recovered oil will contain less than 2 percent bottom solids & water (BS&W).

Discharged water will meet reasonable customer specifications.

Solids recovered from the MX-1500 centrifuge process can be handled in the following manners:
Direct Landfill disposal

MX-1500 low temperature drying followed by landfill disposal or cement kin recycling

MX-2500 high temperature drying followed by recycling as construction material or landfill disposal

Bioremediation followed by recycling construction material or in site capping
