Product Features
FP WBM Dewatering unit is a system by using Filter Press to achieve the solids-liquid separation. It is specialized designed for Spent water-based mud dewatering. After dewatering, the user can get thickened mud cake for easy disposal and clean water for other application. The FP WBM dewatering unit is widely used to treat the Spent WBM in mud pit during drilling operations. The drilling operator can also dump the spent WBM in one big tank for temporarily storage and treat it quickly by FP WBM dewatering unit.
The FP WBM dewatering unit can be used for both onshore and offshore application. FP WBM dewatering unit is portable design, can be used for waste water treatment, livestock farms waste water treatment, mining tailings dewatering and other similar applications. The FP WBM dewatering unit has different size to cater for different request.
