In GN’s production line, there is one type compact design mud de-sanding unit that is widely used in some coarse solids separation project like the piling process. This type mud de-sanding unit is of small footprint and cost effective. “It is an ideal choice for my project, and this is my second order to GN, the first unit on my site is working very well,” Said GN’s customer from Southeast Asia.

How does the de-sanding unit work for solids separation
The de-sanding unit is normally used for the application where has limited space to put the equipment. It is a 2 -step separation process. To make the unit as compact as possible but with better separation performance, GN put double decks shale shakerin this unit for primary solids separation. Lower deck screens works as 1st step separation, and then upper screens are used to dry the slurry discharged from the cyclone unit. A small holding tank beneath the shaker is used to temporally store the mud, once the mud is up to the suction port of the centrifugal pump, the slurry will be transferred to the rotary rig for reuse.

Features of GN de-sanding unit
1. Compact design for small footprint, freely used in city area with limited space for layout machine, transportation conveniently
2. Cost economic with less funds occupation, high rate of return on investment
3. Module design makes the operator can find local fabricated mud storage tank and separate mixing hopper unit to combine a full function drilling mud recycling system.
4. Qualified parts of screens, hydro cyclones and vibrator ensure long life time to reduce the maintenance cost.

GN’s mud de-sanding unit has standard model with capacity of 200GPM, 500GPM and 1000GPM. All the models have specified data sheet and imensional drawing. This will greatly speed up the fabrication process. For larger capacity bored piling and TBM mud plant, GN also has the standard model for optionn. Any request aroused, please contact with GN freely.
