GN Solids Control is proud to announce the successful delivery of three sets of GNTBM-360 Slurry Separation Plants for an overseas pipe jacking project. These advanced systems will play a critical role in ensuring efficient and environmentally friendly slurry treatment during the tunneling process.
Why Slurry Separation is Essential in Pipe Jacking?
Pipe jacking and micro-tunneling projects require precise and efficient slurry separation to ensure smooth operations. The drilling process generates large amounts of slurry mixed with water, clay, silt, sand and gravel. Without effective separation, excessive solids can hinder the drilling process, increase operational costs, and lead to environmental issues. GN Solids Control GNTBM-360 slurry separation system is designed to effectively treat and recycle the drilling fluid, reducing waste and optimizing performance.
Key Features of the GNTBM-360 Slurry Separation Plant
The GNTBM-360 is a high-performance and compact slurry separation system tailored for tunnel boring and pipe jacking projects.
Its key features include:
š¹ Multi-Stage Separation Process: The system integrates coarse screening, desanding, and desilting stages to efficiently remove unwanted solids from the slurry.
š¹ High-Capacity Processing: Designed for 360m³/h (1580 GPM) capacity, it effectively handles large volumes of slurry while maintaining high separation efficiency.
š¹ Advanced Shale Shaker & Hydrocyclones: The system is equipped with high-G force shale shakers for primary solids removal and hydrocyclones to further separate fine particles, ensuring a clean drilling fluid output.
š¹ Compact and Modular Design: The plant is designed to minimize footprint, making it ideal for confined pipe jacking sites. Its modular design allows easy transportation and quick assembly.
š¹ Durable and Reliable: Built with high-quality wear-resistant materials, the system ensures long operational life and minimal maintenance costs.
Project Impact and Benefits
By incorporating GNās GNTBM-360 slurry separation plants, the overseas pipe jacking project will benefit from:
Efficient Slurry Management: Reduction of solids in drilling fluid enhances equipment longevity and improves overall performance. Environmental Compliance: Minimized disposal of contaminated slurry reduces environmental impact and ensures regulatory compliance.
Cost Savings: Recycled drilling fluid reduces new fluid costs, minimizing project expenses.
Operational Stability: Reliable solids control ensures smooth pipe jacking operations without delays.
The deployment of three GNTBM-360 Slurry Separation Plants marks another milestone for GN Solids Control in the tunneling and micro-tunneling industry. With a strong reputation for providing cutting-edge slurry treatment solutions, GN continues to support global infrastructure projects by delivering efficient, cost-effective, and eco-friendly solids control technologies.
