#centrifuge #centrifuga #wmo - Наука та технологія
I have one of your earlier stills .... I run my waste oil through an OTC-2 centrifuge... I have been in the centrifuge industry for 12 years . If you run a water seal or water cushion on your machine and pre heat oil to 80degrees you will get alot better results . A bowl that diameter needs to be in the 8000rpm range
Us filter Maxx anygood?
@Daniel Roberts could you please explain what you mean with a water seal/water cushion? Tried googling it but that was futile
@@DC_DC_DC_DC I think he means putting water in at the beginning for the oil to float over. The water layer is better at collecting solids and water particles rather than relying on centrifugal force alone. People make solvent washing stations that drain the solvent into a bucket of water and the pump sucks the solvent off the top because the solids will sink to the bottom of the water.
@@anotherguy9402 thanks! How is the thickness of this layer monitored/controlled/maintained? Doesn't it evaporate off or even boil with the high temperatures the oil is heated to for releasing moisture
@@DC_DC_DC_DC I would assume after you initially add your water when starting you don't need to add more after and the heating isn't hot enough to make the water boil just to decrease viscosity of the oil
Youre a clever fellow!
Hi, loved this video thanks!
I see you used a grinder to power this good idea with a shaft and nut already in place! That was an unknown for me.
If you are uploading a video on how to construct the bowl that will really interest me!
Thanks.
👍
Yes, I will upload the construction video soon.
@@santeryi9 please do there isnt much content on this.
@@santeryi9 what rpm do you find ideal & what's the gearbox from ? please
@@Errol.C-nz it was a ryobi bench grinder.
Since grinders aren't designed for running for long periods of time under load would the life of the grinder not be very short ?
Hi Thanks for the clear video. But I wanted to know which seal has been put on the shaft that does not allow the oil to trickle down on the motor.
Hi, check the video of centrifuge construction ua-cam.com/video/81ufo5qoc5U/v-deo.html
What did you use for the oil heater?
Here from Insta... Cool build
Thanks a lot
how we do hydrogen striping in the Used Oil
Hi Alek, thanks for the video. I still don't understand how the water seperates and let's say if I want to centrifuge crude oil that is 3 liter but 1 liter of it is water, do I need to build a hole that will only extract water?
It's just an accelerated gravity seperation.. the g forces make the water heavier & seperate out faster than if you just left it to stand.. the lighter oil flows over the rim lip f the spinning drum while the water & particals stay in it
What's the basic formulation of LDO (Light diesel Oil).
Good idea..
Thanks a lot
I need to separate two types of plastic with different densities. Can you pls help
How we can control the CCR of Refined base Oil obtained from clay process.
or how we reduce the CCR of Refined base oil?
Hi aapse bahout zaruri kaam tha base oil ki baare me
Do you have a video showing how you made the bowl?
Yes sure, a complete construction video: ua-cam.com/video/81ufo5qoc5U/v-deo.html
How do you get rid off the residues? Do you burn it or what?
I am currently collecting it. The oil in the separate waste container will be settled later and processed through distillation, and the sludge from the centrifuge surfaces will be burned.
After this process it goes into your distiller? What exactly does the distiller do and how do you compare it to pump diesel?
Just run it straight off the centrifuge it runs fine
@GoKartGang ya I figured but I got a feeling this distilling is towards diminishing returns.
@@edgarcorrea7866 you CAN distill motor oil into gasoline its a huge PITA but it’ll work
@@Victorsvolkswagensis there a video on how to do that

The diesel from WMO Is good fuel for a diesel generator such as Denyo,Perkins...etc. its 25KVA ..??
Yes and he sells plans for the distiller...
Once WMO is distilled and treated, it is a good fuel for any diesel engine.
@@santeryi9 Thank you so much
@@santeryi9 Yes I confirm. I have tested it in a modern Common Rail diesel engine with electronic piezoelectric high pressure injectors and it works great. But the electric heating of the distiller require expensive electric energy and also reagents for tratement have to be bought.
NO- it is not good for fuel in modern engines. Think sandblasting but with oil. The particles, even less than 5 microns, can and will erode the nozzles injected checks and other parts in the high pressure pump. Not in a week, but will reduce the life of the unit. Cat limited bed oil content to 5% of fuel used due to the effect on engine and fuel system life. Just sell your cars/trucks with half the mileage to avoid the issues. Send off the "clean" oil sample to Cat-Deere-Blackstone and see what the analysis shows is in that oil. If it was in a diesel then there is soot. Exception: Properly cleaned and re-refined - -yes. good.
Do you sell plans for the centrifuge?
I am planning to upload a construction video.
@@santeryi9 nice..i will purchase..cheers!
I don't know of a high speed induction motor to use.
How many cycles per minute does this device rotate
3000 rpm
Hi Alek, I see many chinese destilation oil to diesel ho sell on internet. Do you think this are good to buy? And how is the performance to diesel 70-80%?> Thanks
I have no relation to those Chinese oil distillers; honestly, Sorry, but I know nothing about them. It is up to you to get one or not.
Diesel engines will burn any oil fuels.. the issue of "quality" ISN'T in it's burn ability.. it's in the effect contaminants have on the injectors.. tiny water droplets in the fuel turns to superheated steam & micro explodes at the needles surface when the injector is opened with the sudden & dramatic pressure drop at injection.. & pits the needles & valve seats effectively destroying the injectors.. pumps can have problems too.. all degrades combustion efficiencies & potential engine runaway
Where to buy that setup ?
Hi I built it myself.
Hello how are you
Do you try using a milk separator instead of this device, it works at high speed
What's your opinion?
Milk separator is for separating a way from cream, so if you want to separate water frm diesel or oil then you can try it, if you want to remove tar and solids from oil then you need a dedicated centrifuge.
how many watts are the heater?
Heater is 400 watts

This is probably a really dumb question, but I come from the school of thought that “the only dumb question is the one you don’t ask.” Anywho…
Could a centrifuge be used to purify water?
What I’m referring to is really bad well water with lots of silt, iron, and dissolved solids.
I’m thinking if there was a way that the water can separate from all the solids and not stay hung up in the bowl?
And if that’s possible, then you should be able to use a centrifuge to actually recycle your water? 🤷🏻🤔
Hi there! Centrifugation is an effective way to clean water by separating heavier particles and forcing them to stick to the walls of the bowl. However, it's important to monitor the amount of contamination in the water so that you can determine how often the bowl needs to be cleaned. If you don't clean the bowl frequently enough, the dirt will accumulate and the centrifuge won't be able to separate anything anymore.
Здравствуйте! Зачем это надо? Для отделения тяжёлых частиц.
Да, для отделения осадка, воды и охлаждающей жидкости перед перегонкой масла.
After this the distillation process happens right then after that cleaning with chemicals.
First centrifuge, second - distillation, third - chemicals.
@@santeryi9 its already distillation done product from refinery we just want to make it cleaner that's it
Does it work instead of the filter?
Yes, and it is more efficient.
@@santeryi9 How many cycles per minute does this device rotate thank you
@@composing0 3000 rpm
@@santeryi9Is it possible to use a milk separator instead of this device?
My is 6000 RPM
This one is 3000 rpm - a homemade poor man's centrifuge.
@@santeryi9 better than no centrifuge. You can often fine used centrifuge from honing machines from surplus machine sites for pretty cheap. For anyone curious. Hgr industrial surplus, and Lexmark in Canada sometimes. But HGR is amazing for all kinds of industrial surplus equipment. They even have a last chance before scrap section.
@@roadiesgarage3816 I just looked at the HGR site. They have a 130 pound centrifuge on "last chance", but the motor is 3,450 rpm.
@@timothykeith1367 Not necessarily the rotor speed. I had a tractor with built in oil centrifuge which kept the oil so clear it was hard to see on dipstick. No idea of speed.

Здравствуйте. Написал Вам на сайте через форму контактов. Ответьте если не сложно. Спасибо!
Здравствуйте, проверьте майл, я вам ответил еще 13го числа.
@@santeryi9 в спам попало, не заметил, извиняюсь.
It's rubbish! 5000 RPM or more.
Consider it an art installation. It separates water, sludge, sand, and metal shavings, sufficient for further distillation.
It does not do us any good just to show a video. You must explain what the hell you’re doing.
I tried to reflect it with subs that follow every step, try to read please.
