    Ash removal from shale oil ( heavy fuel oil + gasoline mixture)

    @ TugboatEngg - Would not the capex be extremely high for centrifuge compared to autobackwash filters with a standby Presume centrifuges will also have high power consumption as a operating cost vis-a-vis catridge replacement in a filter. Plus centrifuge would also have some maintenance...

    Ash removal from shale oil ( heavy fuel oil + gasoline mixture)

    Thanks for your reply @ moltenmetal :It comes out as suspended solids and as you say could be dust. Was wondering a solution between filter cartridges or a high speed centrifuge(disc stack type), which should be better option. @poli60 - I do not have the analysis. The reduction is to achieve...

    Foot mounted 660VAC,50Hz,37kW CT Motor operated with a VFD

    Hello Thanks everyone for your input. As regards the motor, it is available with the manufacturer. This requirement is for Russia.But do agree that it is too much hassle and cost, instead would make more sense to purchase a VFD driven motor. I hope VFD motors for my spec do get manufactured.
