A new dewatering system for slurry has been developed with the aim of realization of efficient mud-water treatment. In the system, the centrifugal force is employed for the purpose of densification of mud and for separation of mud particles from water, In this research, an original idea has been developed for discharge of the dewatered mud. This made it possible to realize a continuous dewatering process without the use of any filtering device. In this paper, the mechanism of dewatering process in the system is explained and the applicability of the system is discussed based on the results of the experiments carried out with a trial machine on four kinds of slurry materials. We believe that the system will highly contribute in the improvement of our environmental conditions.
