As one of the leading separation solution provider in the world, GN Separation is becoming more and more popular among clients. In a recent project, GN has delivered to New Zealand a complete system for the slurry dewatering in a construction field. This system contains following equipment manufactured by GN:

1.Coarse screening stage, a GNLMP1536 Mining Vibrating Screens. Shale shakers are one of GN core products in oil and gas solids control industry, and the mining vibrating screens are another group similar with shale shakers. Comparing with shale shakers, the mining vibrating screens are just bigger in both machine size and screen opening sizes. In a slurry dewatering project, they are always used as a coarse screen at the very first stage for separation.

2.Double deck fine screening GNZJ706. The double deck shaker screen are used for fine screening. This shaker is equipped with 2 deck of shaker screens with different screen openings. In this case, the capacity is larger than the single deck one with same power consumption and space.

3.Desilter unit GNZJ594-12N. The desilter cones are used for separate out the particles around 20 microns by centrifugal force. And under below there is a vibrating screen for drying the particles. Liquid size is discharged to next step.

4.Big bowl centrifuge GNLW553D. The decanter centrifuge is used for fine separating for particles from 2 to 5 microns. GNLW553D decanter centrifuge has a bowl of 22 inch diameter and the length-diameter ratio is 3.

5.Chemical dosing unit. When there are extra fine particles in the liquid, the chemical dosing helps to flocculate the extra fine particles to be big enough for the centrifuge.

GN has a technical team with years of experiences for designing customized solutions in fields as solids control, waste management, dewatering and oily sludge treatment and mining related with the separation purpose.

One unit of ATEX certified vacuum degasser and mud gas separator are ready for shipment to Europe client.
Mud gas separator, also called poor boy degasser, GN ZYQ series atmospheric pressure mud gas separator is a specialized equipment for primary degassing of gas cut drilling fluids, mainly used to remove gas cut drilling fluids with a diameter of approximately ≥ φ 3mm large bubbles. These large bubbles refer to the expansive gas that mostly fills a certain section of the wellbore annulus in the drilling fluids. If it is not removed, it will easily cause a kick or even spray out of the surface of the drilling disc.
GN ZYQ series atmospheric pressure anti hydrogen sulfide mud gas separator is made of high-quality materials, which can effectively prevent the erosion of harmful gases and ensure the safety of human machine production.

Features of GN mud gas separator:

1. The poor boy degasser adopts bottom drainage to control the height of the working liquid level, ensuring a constant liquid level in the separator and solving the problem of sand accumulation in the tank;
2. The poor boy degasser tank is equipped with a dedicated gas separation channel, which allows for smooth gas evacuation and improves gas treatment efficiency;
3. The mud gas separator adopts physical impact separation to ensure the gas separation effect;
   GN ZCQ series vacuum degasser is mainly used for separating gas from drilling mud, which is specialized equipment developed based on various types of vacuum degassers a for treating gas immersed drilling fluids. Suitable for various mud recycling systems, it is very important for restoring the specific gravity of mud, stabilizing the viscosity of mud, and reducing drilling costs.
   We will install ATEX certified electric motor and control panel for the vacuum degasser, and also for the vacuum pump motor. No extra jetting pump is required for the vacuum degasser’s operation.

One set of Dredging slurry dewatering equipments working in North America, here is the working video for your reference. https://www.gnseparation.com/video/dredging-slurry-dewatering-equipment-working-in-north-america
It is a customized design slurry dewatering system according to our client’s requirement, if you need a solution for any kinds of slurry in solids liquid separation, for example, dredging slurry, mining tailings, industrial waste slurry, animal waste, oil sludge, drilling waste, etc., pls contact with GN solids control/ GN separation.

Mainly the dredging slurry dewatering equipments including shale shaker ( to separate coarse solids and reduce solids content) , desander ( solids separation cut point 40 microns), desilter ( solids separation cut point 20 microns), big bowl dewatering centrifuge ( mechanical separation cut point 2~5 microns, working with chemical dosing to improve the separation efficiency), feeding pump, screw conveyor ( to transfer the discharged solids), mud tank for liquids storage, with pipelines for proper flow diagram. The working process is as below:

Firstly the shale shaker separate the coarse solids bigger than 300 microns by using proper mesh size shaker screen, secondly the desander cone to separate the 50~300 microns solids, the desilter cone to separate the 20~ 50 microns material, the dewatering centrifuge to separate fine solids to get clean water, which can be sent to waste water treatment facility if need. The solids can be transferred by screw conveyor to cuttings collection box and transfer to other area for construction area. The whole system meets the standard of North America usage.

The big bowl dewatering centrifuge is 30 inch bowl diameter, the bowl length is 131 inch, the designed capacity is 528gpm, the max G force is up to 3000G, the gearbox torch is 25000N.M., gearbox ratio is 38:1. The main motor is 160KW, the back drive motor is 90KW, the centrifuge is drived by the VFD control panel.

Shale shaker deck angle adjustment is one of the important operation for shale shaker usage. As a professional shale shaker manufacturer in China, we can produce linear motion shale shaker and dual motion ( linear motion and balance elliptical motion) shale shaker for oil & gas drilling mud cleaning system, we can produce single layer and double layer shale shaker, also we have 2 panel, 3 panel, 4 panel, 5 panel, 6 panel shale shaker with different treating capacity for different applications, also we have drilling fluids cleaning shale shaker, oil sludge shale shaker, ViST shale shaker, mining screen ( including stack vibrating screen, mining vibration screen, high G fine vibrating screen, double deck linear vibrating screen, etc), also we produce equipped shaker screens by GN own workshop which produced compliant with API RP13C standard.

There are 2 types shale shaker deck angle adjustment method, one is electrical, one is mechanical, the deck angel adjustment is according to the drilling fluids solids size, density, feeding capacity, drilling fluids type, shaker screen type and mesh size, normally it is adjusted according to the user’s experience. GN shale shaker deck angle can be mechanically adjusted synchronously at both sides, it doesnot need 2 persons to operate the shaker at the same time, one person can do the work from one side, he can adjust both sides synchronously.
The tools to adjust the deck angle is ratchet wrench, which is stock in the tool box when delivery.

The operator holds the ratchet wrench and causes it to rotate to drive the lead screw elevator. The lead screw of the lead screw elevator drives the 4 lifting tube assembly to rise or fall, and the lifting tube assembly stops rotating when it reaches the ideal position. Through the above operations, the user can choose an appropriate angle for production based on the on-site mud performance and flow rate.
