a cylindrical section; and
a dewatering cone extending from the cylindrical section, the dewatering cone comprising:
an outer wall; and
a screen spatially adjacent the outer wall, a void being defined between the outer wall and the screen;

a plurality of perforated pipes positioned vertically around an inner circumference of the cylindrical section and intersecting the screen such that water from the a particle slurry passes into the perforated pipes and drops into the void;
wherein:
the particle slurry is introduced into the dewatering cone and contacts the screen;
water from the particle slurry passes through the screen and into the void;
water in the void is discharged away from the mobile dewatering system; and
dewatered particles pass from the dewatering cone through a discharge port in a bottom of the dewatering cone.
