Trailer mounted dredging slurry separation system

Dredging slurry separation system/ Industry waste water treatment is one of the applications of GN solids control, except for solids control system, drilling waste management system, oil sludge treatment system, horizontal directional drilling system, core bed methane drilling, geothermal well drilling, water well drilling.

hi-G dryer
The basic working principal is that the dredger will take the contaminated sediment toxic and non-toxic element, and sludge from the big environmental dredging of pond revitalization, the sludge will be pumped by the submersible slurry pump to the dredging slurry separation system, which will separate the solids from the water as much as possible. The dredging slurry separation process including:
First step cleaning: shale shaker, to separate the solids bigger than 100 microns from the water, we will metal slit screen or complete composite screens to separate the big solids, like bricks, garbage, branch, rocks, etc. For a 1000gpm sludge separation system, we will use 2 units of GN 4 panel shale shaker. But the shale shaker may not be necessary when there is no big solids and all of the particles are smaller than 100 microns, it will be useless.
Second step: desander cone with bottom shale shaker to separate the solids between 45 microns to 100 microns, 2 ea of 10 inch desander cone is sufficient for 1000gpm treating capacity.

22-2
Third step: 4” desilter cone with bottom shale shaker to separate the solids bigger than 20 microns, 12 ea of 4 inch desilter cone is enough for 1000gpm treating capacity.
The fourth step: 2” desilter cone with bottom shale shaker to separate the solids bigger than 10 microns.

Drilling cuttings transfer system in Argentina

GN solids control produce drilling cuttings transfer system based in China, Beijing, there are 2 options for drilling waste transfer, one is the vacuum pump, the other one is the screw conveyor system. The vacuum pump with advantages of cheaper price, no need electric power consumption, and compact design, which is the ideal equipments to transfer the drilling cuttings, oil sludge, oil contaminated solids, etc. But for high viscosity oil sludge, it will be difficult to use vacuum pump to transfer from the waste pit to the premixing system, but for drilling cuttings, the vacuum pump works very well, pls refer to GN website to watch the working video of the vacuum pump.

2017.12.04-vacuum-pump-testing-1
The screw conveyor system can transfer the cuttings with less moisture only, if with too much water/ oil mixture fluids, the fluids will flow back to the waste pit or spill out of the conveyor, because mostly the screw conveyor is installed slantly. And the same time, the screw conveyor need a large area to install, sometimes the area in the rig site is very limited to install the screw conveyor system, also considering the power consumption and cost.
The operation of the vacuum pump need an air compressor, which can be also used to run the decanter centrifuge VFD control panel. All the VFD control panel is positive pressurized variable frequency drive, with the cooling tube installed on the side.

2017.12.04-vacuum-pump-testing-2
The vacuum pump can suck the solids/ cuttings/ oil sludge from the waste pit up to 50m, distance up to 100m, the max solids is up to 75mm( 3 inch). The max transfer capacity of this model is 40m3/h, the 10m3/h model and 18m3/h model is also under production.
Welcome to visit GN facility in Beijing, China and see the working video of the vacuum pump.

2017.12.01 Workshop
GN solids control is the only solids control manufacturer who owns our own ball blasting machines, we can control the quality better. The most important process for shale shaker / mud cleaner deck anti-corrosion is bottom material treatment and painting. After GN ball blasting, degree SA2.5, life time for anticrossion is 10~15 years.
Difference between sand blasting and ball blasting is as below:

2017.12.01 Powder Coating
Sand blasting function: derusting, remove the oxide coating on the surface
Ball blasting function:
1. derusting, remove the oxide coating on the surface
2.Improve the roughness on the surface
3. remove the burr of the parts
4 Eliminate stress of the part
5 reduce the Deformation of the parts after heat treatment
6 Improve the Wear resistance and Compression capability on the surface
Generally speaking, ball blasting is with better quality than sand blasting, and difficult to achieve. So GN shale shaker with longer time for anti- corrosion compared with other brand shale shaker. The composite material frame shaker screen has longer working life compared with traditional steel frame shaker screen, and the effective screen area is 20% bigger than steel frame shaker screens. The drilling fluids touch parts shaker deck are made of stainless steel 304, which is anti-corrosion.
