Through a few years evolving, GN has achieved many a the first. GN is the first API certified manufacture of solids control equipment in China; GN is the first manufacture in China who is able to design and manufacture vertical cutting dryer and high G dryer shaker. As an expert in solids control and drilling waste management, GN is striving for more firsts.
Recently, a unit of cutting dryer system for drilling waste is completed in GN. It is specially designed for a Cyprus client. This cutting waste cutting dryer system is composed by the following equipment.
1. One set of vertical cutting dryer with PLC control panel available. The cutting dryer’s speed varies from 0 to 900 rpm.
2. One set of screw pump, which is used to flushing screens inside the vertical cutting dryer to avoid blocking.
3. One set of submersible slurry pump, which pumps the mud to the decanter centrifuge to remove the ultra fine solids out.
4. One set of decanter centrifuge with the typical treating capacity of 132 GPM. The speed of this decanter centrifuge can be adjusted from 0 to 3200 rpm.
5. Removable mud tank for vertical cutting dryer, decanter centrifuge and mud collecting tank.
As to the working process of this cutting dryer system for drilling waste, it mainly includes the below three.
1.Waste cuttings discharged from shale shaker and mud cleaner will directly be transferred to the vertical cutting dryer through screw conveyor.
2.While being processed by the vertical cutting dryer, solids will be discharged from the bottom gate of this cutting dryer and the liquids will flow to the collecting tank.
3.The submersible slurry pump will transfer the mud to decanter centrifuge for further process and particles over 2 microns will be separated out.
GN’s vertical cuttings dryer is suitable for both the OBM and WBM, please click below link http://www.gnsolidscontrol.com/video/vertical-cuttings-dryer-water-based-mud-drilling-waste for video on the vertical cuttings dryer performance.
