Necessity of Slurry Treatment for Slurry Balance Shield

Necessity of Slurry Treatment for Slurry Balance Shield

During the drilling process of the mud, due to the continuous entry of drilling slag into the mud, the specific gravity, viscosity and sand content of the mud change, which cannot meet the requirements of mud performance, and must be treated or purified, mainly by solid-liquid Separation, the drilling slag in the mud is separated and discharged and then recycled.

There are two main methods of engineering construction mud purification: sedimentation tank and mechanical equipment. The current mainstream mud-water construction has abandoned the use of large natural settling tanks and switched to a combination of vibrating screen and cyclone equipment for construction. The KD series mud water treatment unit manufactured by our company is mainly used to purify mud, complete mud recovery and solid slag treatment.

Mud-water balance shield mud-water separation According to the difference in the structure of the mud-water tank and the control method of the mud pressure, the mud-water shield is divided into: direct control type and indirect control type.

Similar slurries are also used in diaphragm wall operations (dual milling) and cast-in-place piles (rotary drilling and punching equipment).

Mud Circulation Treatment System Generated During Drilling

Oilfield drilling mud is a working fluid that lubricates, cools, protects arms, transmits drilling cuttings and balances bottom pressure during oilfield drilling. Drilling waste mud consists of a small amount of mud discharged during drilling and a large amount of mud discharged after completion. The main components are bentonite, drilling cuttings, water and various chemical additives. Because the waste mud contains a variety of toxic and harmful pollutants such as alkali, salt, oil, etc., it is difficult to deal with, so oily sewage and dirty oil are called the three major public hazards in oil fields. With the provisions of the national environmental protection law and the enhancement of people’s awareness of environmental protection, the petroleum industry has stepped up scientific research on elimination, utilization and resource recycling.

During oil drilling, the use of drilling mud treatments is frequently involved. Untreated sludge can have serious environmental impacts if it is not treated effectively. Relevant practitioners need to properly implement various drilling mud measures and optimize scientific and technical means, so as to effectively improve the quality of oilfield mud treatment. Therefore, in the process of oil drilling, it is necessary to recycle the mud generated during the drilling process to ensure the smooth progress of the drilling work and the engineering quality of the drilling construction.

KOSUN’s mud zero discharge equipment is suitable for mud treatment in medium and large construction sites. The advantages of this model are the large processing capacity, the low moisture content of the mud cake, and the high degree of automation. The filter cake can be accumulated for a certain period of time, which improves work efficiency and reduces costs.

The process of Farm sludge dewatering

In the sludge dewatering of farms, sludge dewatering equipment is the core and important equipment. The principle of sludge dewatering equipment in farms is the same as that of sludge dewatering equipment in other industries. There are many sludge dewatering equipment in farms. At present, domestic sludge treatment equipment includes centrifuges, plate and frame filter presses, chamber filter presses, diaphragm filter presses, and high-pressure sludge dryers. Different sludge treatment equipment the moisture content after dehydration is different.

The characteristics of farm pollution are high-concentration organic sewage sludge, high content of suspended solids and ammonia nitrogen, and high content of organic matter and microorganisms. The sewage sludge of the breeding site has the characteristics of three highs. The organic matter concentration COD is as high as 3000-12000mg/1, the ammonia nitrogen content is as high as 800-2200mg/1, the suspended matter is dozens of times more than SS, the color is deep, and it contains a lot of bacteria, organic phosphorus, Heavy metals, residual chemicals and other hazardous substances.

It has been proved by experiments that the effect of using the horizontal screw decanting centrifuge in the sludge dewatering process of the farm is better than that of other sludge dewatering equipment. The centrifuge adopts the principle of centrifugation. After being treated by the centrifuge, the water content of the sludge cake is low, the equipment covers a small area, and the capital construction cost is low, the device has the advantages of compact structure and so on.

Measures for Drilling Waste Treatment in Sichuan Oil and Gas Fields

Sichuan Oil and Gas Field is an oil and gas production area centered on the Sichuan Basin in Southwest China. With 125 existing gas fields and 12 oil fields, it is the largest natural gas industrial base in the country and the first natural gas production area in China with a natural gas output exceeding 10 billion yuan. Sichuan oil and gas field is a large gas field in the country. If the drilling waste is not effectively treated, it will cause serious environmental pollution problems.

The waste of drilling waste treatment in Sichuan oil and gas field is mainly for the treatment of various pollutants such as waste liquid, cuttings, waste gas and mud generated in the drilling process. The purpose of processing drilling waste is to finally turn the drilling waste into treasure, that is, water can be recycled and solid waste can be used reasonably.

Disposal method of drilling waste in Sichuan oil and gas field: First, in the solid-liquid separation stage, the mud and sand are treated with a mud shaker, a sand pump, a desander, and a desilter, and then the mud is stored in a mud tank for drying. The equipment generally used for waste drying treatment includes: screw conveyor, drill cuttings dryer, screw pump, and centrifuge equipment.

Drilling mud recycling: The treated mud can be reused, and the dried waste residue can be used in construction projects such as brick making or road paving. The treatment of oil and gas field drilling waste through the above process not only achieves the purpose of environmental protection and harmlessness, but also enables the waste to be used economically and rationally, achieving the dual goals of environmental protection and energy saving.

Reservoir dredging sludge dewatering treatment equipment

The following is a detailed introduction to the five commonly used treatment equipment for reservoir dredging sludge dewatering:

The ideal method for front-end sludge dredging treatment is to use a submersible sand pump as a dredging pump and a cutter suction dredger and a scour suction dredger. The method often used in the back-end sludge dewatering treatment is to use a special sludge treatment system to separate the solid and liquid of the sludge from the sludge from the front-end dredging. The system mainly includes: screening equipment, dosing system, Sludge dewatering equipment, etc. Among them, sludge dewatering equipment can be prepared with 3 different types of equipment according to different actual conditions of reservoir sludge, including: screw stacker, centrifuge, filter press:

1) The submersible sand pump is used as the dredging pump, and the corresponding sand pumping system and special sand conveying pipeline can be used for easy cleaning. The overall configuration is simple to operate, easy to use and economical.

2) Adopt cutter suction dredger and scour suction dredger. It is mostly used in situations where the area of the reservoir is relatively large, the dredging sediment is relatively hard, or the requirements for the depth of dredging are relatively strict. Suction type dredging vessel, simple to operate, low investment, mostly used in small reservoirs, the sediment is not very hard and can be recoiled with high pressure water, and the depth requirements for dredging are not very strict.

3) Snail stacking machine: The snail stacking machine has the functions of rapid concentration, continuous dehydration and self-cleaning. The advantage of the screw stacking machine is that the equipment relies on the movement between the fixed ring and the moving ring to achieve a continuous self-cleaning process, so that the It avoids the common clogging problem of traditional dewatering machines, and also achieves the purpose of sufficient sludge dewatering.

4) Filter press: The basic principle of solid-liquid separation is: the mixed liquid flows through the filter medium (filter cloth), the solids stay on the filter cloth, and gradually accumulate on the filter cloth to form a filter cake. The filtrate part penetrates the filter cloth and becomes a clear liquid without solids. The plate and frame filter press is used for the separation of solid and liquid. Compared with other solid-liquid separation equipment, the mud cake filtered by the filter press has higher solid content and excellent separation effect.

5) Centrifuge: It uses the principle of centrifugal sedimentation to separate the suspension in the sludge. The smaller the particles, the slower the sedimentation and the more serious the diffusion phenomenon. Therefore, the powerful centrifugal force of the centrifuge is used to accelerate the sedimentation of the particles in the liquid. The speed of these small particles can overcome the diffusion to produce a sedimentation process, so as to achieve a rapid dewatering process of the sludge slurry. The progress of the sludge dredging and dewatering project in the reservoir is generally subject to time requirements and limitations. Stable and efficient treatment equipment can well ensure the smooth completion of the reservoir sludge dredging and dewatering project according to quality and on time.
