CYCLONE DESANDER & SAND WASH

Our expertise in Cyclone Desanders and Sand Wash systems is crucial for the efficient management of sand and solids in your production processes. Cyclone Desanders use centrifugal forces to remove sand and other particulates from production fluids, preventing abrasion and blockages in downstream equipment. Paired with our Sand Wash systems, which clean and separate sand from hydrocarbons and water, these solutions ensure that solids are effectively managed and disposed of, reducing wear and tear on your equipment and maintaining the integrity of your operations. Designed for high efficiency and reliability, our Cyclone Desanders and Sand Wash systems help you maintain smooth production, minimise downtime, and protect your infrastructure. With our advanced technology, you can achieve cleaner process streams, extend equipment life, and enhance overall operational efficiency.
