Zero discharge system manufacturer in China

As a complete zero discharge system manufacturer in China, GN solids control can produce customized zero discharge system and major equipments, including linear motion shale shaker, mud cleaner, decanter centrifuge, vertical cuttings dryer, screw conveyor, screw pump, collection tanks, etc. The working process is as below:


The used drilling fluids flow to 2 or 3 or 4 units of solids control shale shaker, the fluids dropped into the mud tank, the drilling cuttings are separated out and collected by screw conveyor and transfer to vertical cuttings dryer ( if for oil based mud or synthetic oil based mud), to reduce the moisture and oil content, the discharge cuttings with oil content below 5%, which can be disposal directly or for land fill. If for water based mud, we will use high G drying shaker to dry the water based drilling cuttings. The recovery fluids flow to intermediate tank, which will be feed to VFD decanter centrifuge by its feeding pump ( screw pump). The fluids discharged from decanter centrifuge will be transferred back to solids control system mud tank and mix with chemicals to prepare for new drilling fluids.
The mud cleaner is a combination of desander cone, desilter cone, bottom shale shaker, with 2 units of centrifugal pumps as feeding pump of desander cone and desilter cone. The desander cone separation cut point is 45 microns, the desilter cone separation cut point is 25 microns. The fluids treated by desilter cone flow to mud tank. If required, middle speed decanter centrifuge and high speed decanter centrifuge will be installed after mud cleaner. The discharged solids from mud cleaner and decanter centrifuge will be collected and transferred to solidification unit together with the solids discharged from VFD decanter centrifuge.

Linear motion shale shaker and Balanced Elliptical Motion shale shaker

As a professional solids control equipments manufacturer in China, GN solids control can produce both linear motion shale shaker and balanced elliptical motion shale shaker, the working principal of linear motion is as below:


Two counter rotating vibration motors rotate in opposite directions, the force generated on the shaker deck is zero, which results the linear motion. G force sticker can be put on the shaker deck to test the acceleration, and the user can calculate the G force according to the formula.
GN Dual Motion shale shaker with 2 vibration motors to achieve linear motion and progressive elliptical motion, the operation process is as below: One vibration motor is normal design, the other set vibration motor is Swing weight motor, it produces different G force when forward and reverse ( there are arrow to show the rotary direction on the vibration motor). When forward, the produced vibration G force is matched with the other set vibration motor G force to produce linear motion; when reverse, the produced G force is smaller than the other set vibration motor G force, the joint force generated by the G force of 2 vibration motors, the formed torque to Centroid is mutative, Simultaneously the progressive elliptical motion is generated under the action of the shaker deck gravity.
GN produced linear motion shale shaker, elliptical motion shale shaker, dual motion shale shaker have been used to treat different types drilling fluids. Linear motion shale shaker can be mostly used for water based drilling fluids, Non-Aqueous Drilling Fluid.
The shale shaker can be made to tandem shale shaker, triple shale shaker for convenient operation and transportation. We can also produce dual deck shale shaker for special requirement.
If you need linear motion shale shaker and dual motion shale shaker, pls contact with GN solids control.
