Three sets of GN mud recycling system and 40 units pumps shipped to HDD clients

Recently three sets of GN mud recycling system and 40 units of slurry pumps are shipped to HDD clients.


GN Solids control successfully delivered 3 sets of GNMS-1000 mud treatment systems and 40 units of strong wear resistant slurry pumps to HDD (trenchless) customers, to enhance their overall trenchless construction efficiency.
Each set of mud cleaning system integrates one shale shaker, one mud cleaner, one unit of mud tank, centrifugal pump, and mud agitator, enabling mud cleaning and mixing, as well as efficient mud storage, thus meeting the needs of complex working conditions of trenchless projects.
The 40 sets of submersible slurry pumps feature high chromium alloy pump casings and impellers, offering strong wear resistance and a maintenance free design. They are specifically designed for slurry transfer in non excavation mud pits, to ensure uninterrupted construction.


GN Solids Control- From separation to transportation, we provide a one stop mud cleaning solution to our customers, helping to reduce engineering costs and enhance engineering reliability.


GNMS-1000K mud cleaning unit technical specifications are as below:
The treating capacity is 240m3/h ( 1000gpm), the separation cut point is 40 microns, the function of the mud system is cleaning, without mixing and storage, if the client need mud mixing function and also storage capacity, one extra storage tank with mud mixing hopper and mud mixing tank can be provided separately, and the client can prepare storage tank locally. One double deck mud cleaner is installed on the fluids catching tank, the bottom layer shaker screen is used as coarse solids shale shaker, the top layer shaker screen works as mud cleaner bottom screen, 2 units of 10 inch desander cone are installed on top of the double deck shale shaker.

The 500 gpm mud recycling system consists of shale shaker, mud cleaner, desander feeding pump, desilter feeding pump, 20ft container size mud tank, 20ft container lifting frame, mud tank accessories and electric control system. It is a customized design 500gpm mud recycling system for our client, we also have standard 200gpm, 400gpm. 600gpm, 800gpm, 1000gpm mud recycling system for HDD mud cleaning, mixing, recycling.


The core drilling hydraulic centrifuge system is solids liquid separation of waste water for diamond core drilling. The features of the core drilling hydraulic centrifuge system including compact design, modular design, lightweight to meet the requirement for helicopter hoisting, can operate without electricity power supply. The technical configuration is as below:
1. GNLW223D-FHD hydraulic centrifuge
2. Feeding and discharge pump: 2X FHD pump
3. Treating capacity: 50~130L/Min
4. Separation cut point: 2~5 Microns
5. Driving method：Diesel + Hydraulic drive
6. Mud tank volume： 2m3
7. Total power consumption: 40KW
8. Mixing hopper
The treatment process is as below:


The mud is pumped into the sedimentation bin of the buffer tank, so that the large particle sedimentation. After that, the mud overflow to the slurry supply bin of the feeding tank, the pumped by the #1 slurry pump to the hydraulic centrifuge for ultrafine solids separation. If without the sedimentation process, one unit of mini shale shaker will be used to separate the coarse solids from the mud. The mud treated by the hydraulic centrifuge flows into discharge tank and transferred to drilling machine by No.2 transfer pump, the treated clean water can be reused to prepare for new drilling fluids and used by the core drilling for cost saving.

Track Mounted Mud Treatment System for Australia Customer

A track mounted mud treatment system is a mobile, self-contained system commonly used in geothermal wells and water well drilling. This system is designed for easy mobility, making them suitable for operations in remote or hard to reach locations. GN produced track mounted mud treatment system – composed of modules such as track platform, mud treatment system, and generator.


The mud treatment system is fixed with the track platform, the mud cleaner GNZY754K-Y6N is combination of 6ea 4 inch hydrocyclones installed on top of double deck shale shaker, the top screen area is 1.35m2, the bottom screen area is 1.35m2, the separation cut point is 15 ~ 20 microns. The treating capacity is up to 500gpm. The century mixing hopper and mixing pump are installed on the mud tank for the mud mixing if need. The whole system is within the track platform, which can be loaded into the 40ft container. The total power of the mud system is 11KW, the generator installed on the track system can support both of the mud treatment system and track drive. It can be remotely controlled to walk, move forward and backward, turn, and climb slopes, meeting different road conditions.


Features of GN track mounted mud treatment system:
Integrated design, compact structure, easy and quick to move
Mobility: Being track-mounted, the system can easily be moved around to different locations on a site, making it ideal for operations that require mobility.
Reduced Environmental Impact: By recycling and reusing the drilling fluids, these systems help minimize environmental damage caused by disposal of contaminated waste.
Efficient Waste Management: These systems streamline the mud cleaning process, ensuring that waste is efficiently processed and reducing downtime.
Cost-Effective: Reusing treated mud can lower the cost of drilling fluids, and the mobility reduces the need for transporting waste to disposal sites.

Mud Mixing System and recycling unit for HDD company

One unit of 500gpm mud recycling unit GNMS-500K and one set of 20m3/h mud mixing system are ready for shipment to HDD company.
Compared with old model 500gpm mud recycling unit GNMS-500D, the new designed GNMS-500K is with the features as below:


1. New model double deck shale shaker GNZS754K instead of GNZY753E for larger screen area, the GNZS754K shale shaker with top screen area 1.4m2, bottom screen area 1.4m2, total screen area is 2.8m2. GNZY753E shale shaker with top screen area 0.875m2, the bottom screen area is 1.35m2.
2. Different hydrocyclnes, the old GNMS-500D mud recycling unit with 1ea of 10 inch desnader cone, the new GNMS-500K mud recycling unit with 10 ea of 4 inch desilter cone, the separation cut point is reduced from 40 microns to 25 microns.
3. Different hydrocyclone feeding pump, to reduce the footprint of the mud recycling unit and increase effective mud tank capacity, we changed the horizontal centrifugal pump ( which is installed on the tank skid) to submersible slurry pump ( installed vertically), the motor power is also reduced. During shipment, the motor can be removed and lay down to reduce the height of the recycling unit to load it into the standard container, the hydrocyclone frame will be also removed to fit for container shipment.
4. Reduced power consumption of the mud recycling unit, the total power is reduced.


The mud recycling unit can be customized for different mixing capacity and mixing tank capacity. The mixing hopper and mixing pump can be installed on the mixing tank skid for convenient movement, also they can be installed on a separate skid and connect with mixing tank.
Except for the compact design mud recycling unit, GN solids control also produce self contained mud recycling system with mud cleaning, recycling, mixing, storage function.
