OverviewMACFUGE systems are ideal for heavy-duty applications: they continuously remove impurities, such as solid particles and water, from combustible and lubricating oils. The modular composition allows selection of accessories to make the process more efficient and automated.
Accessories- electric heaters
- sludge handling unit
- feed pumps
Environments / ApplicationsSuitable for all applications and environments: Offshore - Sea - Explosive - Arctic - Tropical. All MACFUGE equipment is available in an explosion proof configuration for hazardous areas (ATEX certification).
Advantages of using a MACFUGE centrifugal separator- Continuous separation of the incoming product
- Extending the useful life of the product
- Significant reduction of equipment wear
- Low volume of waste to be disposed of
- Does not require flocculants
- Works effectively even on floating platforms
- The applied centrifugal force is higher than that of a hydro cyclone
- It does not use filters that clog quickly and that must be changed frequently
- Fully automated cleaning by the mean of the control panel
Applications by fluid typeLubricating and hydraulic oilThe MACFUGE "turnkey" system is designed to preserve processes that use mineral oil, removing contamination from water and particles. Installed on offshore platforms, power plants and heavy industry plants, MACFUGE systems guarantee excellent performance and long-term operation of all turbomachinery and equipment.
Liquid fuelsIn the maritime field MACFUGE centrifuges treat marine diesel oil (MDO) and heavy fuel oil (HFO), lowering pollutant levels to meet legal requirements and increasing fuel quality.
Scrubber waterMACFUGE centrifuges purify water used for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), removing soot and other contaminants so treated water discharge complies with Marine Environment Protection Committee requirements.
Slop oil and sludge oilThe MACFUGE system reduces the volume of these wastes to a minimum, recovering most of the still usable oil and reducing disposal (incineration) costs.
Process waterMACFUGE purifiers reduce pollution in process water to meet stringent regulations, enabling reuse and reducing wastewater volume.
Deck drain and bilge waterOffshore platforms and ships create contaminated water that must be treated before sea discharge; MACFUGE centrifuges allow on-site treatment to meet legal parameters.
Oil industryFor heavy crude oil (HCO) production, MACFUGE systems remove solid particles and water, limiting chemical additive and thermal energy use.
