KOSUN is a professional company providing comprehensive solutions to solid waste treatment in the field of energy conservation and environmental protection, which focuses on development and services of complete technologies and equipment of sludge reduction and resource utilization.

The solids control system forms the first waste management practice in any drilling operation. It removes drill cuttings from the drilling mud at the surface just before the mud re-enters the mud-pit for recirculation. Apart from drill cuttings, the solids control equipment also removes some gases and other contaminants in the mud before they are re-circulated. The early removal of these solids avoids accumulation and clogging of the system and the separation devices sizes of solids.

The components of the solids control system will depend upon the types of drilling fluid used, these formations being drilled, the available equipment on the rig, and the specific requirements of the disposal option. But basically, standard solid control equipment will comprise of shale shakers, degassers, desanders and desilters. The mud passes over a shale shaker, which is basically a vibrating screen. This removes the larger particles, while allowing the residue to pass into settling tanks. The finer particles are further removed in the desanders and desilters. If the mud contains gas from the formation it will be passed through a degasser which separates the gas from liquid mud, having passed through all the mud processing equipment the mud is returned to the mud tanks for recycling, while the residue (drill cuttings with adhered drilling fluid) is either kept in a temporary storage facility for treatment and final disposal or direct discharged into the sea. In general, the solids control equipment reduces the volume of drilling waste requiring disposal.

TBM Muck treatment System-KOSUN

Xi’an KOSUN Environmental Engineering Co., Ltd. focuses on development and services of complete technologies and equipment of sludge and TBM muck reduction and resource utilization.Our TBM Muck Treatment System had been successful used in shenzhen,China.

Use of TBM muck as construction material: Tunnel boring machines (TBM) are widely used in tunnel construction in rock. The rock chips (muck) produced are rarely used for construction applications, however, because the suitability of the material is not well understood. Yet the cuttings appear to be of approximately the correct average size for some applications. If they are suitable in other respects, cost savings can be realized in tunnel construction, where aggregate is a common requirement. A review of standard construction aggregate specifications indicates that hardrock TBM much would be suitable for several construction applications with a minimum of processing: road pavement and structural concrete. Processing options also are discussed for cases where the raw TBM muck is nearly, but not quite, suitable. A 0.65 metric ton (1420 lb) cutting sample generated by a laboratory tunnel boring machine operating in a welded tuff is analyzed for suitability for different construction applications. In addition, numerous tunneling projects that use or have studied TBM waste for construction purposes are described.

Sludge dewatering and capacity reduction is not only an important part of sludge treatment.

Sludge dewatering and capacity reduction is not only an important part of sludge treatment, but also the most difficult part to realize. Domestic sewage treatment plants can only reduce the sludge moisture content to about 80% by mechanical dehydration, and a large amount of water brings great difficulties to the follow-up treatment of sludge. If the water is removed by means of heat evaporation, the huge energy consumption makes the sludge treatment cost high.

The reason why sludge dewatering and capacity reduction is difficult is that the sludge obtained in the sewage treatment process has high hydrophilicity, which makes it difficult for the water in the sludge to be liquid to achieve low-cost and efficient separation, resulting in the dewatering sludge difficult to achieve the economic and environmental unity of the treatment goal.

The sludge produced by sewage treatment has a high water content. Due to the combination of water and sludge particles, mechanical method to remove the sludge has a certain limit. The content of organic matter in the sludge, the proportion of ash, especially the addition of flocculant, has an important impact on the final solid content.Mud cake is still high in moisture content and fluid property, so it is difficult to dispose of it and the cost is still high, so it is necessary to further reduce the amount.At this point, in addition to natural air drying, only through the input of heat to form evaporation, can achieve a large reduction.The process of using heat to dry is called heat drying.

Trenchless construction is a horizontal drilling project used in construction or infrastructure projects.

Trenchless construction is a horizontal drilling project used in construction or infrastructure projects. In the process of trenchless construction, drilling mud is needed to ensure the performance of trenchless drill. To make drilling mud reusable and to reduce drilling costs, contractors often use mud recovery systems to recover drilling mud.

KOSUN has decades of experience in the design and manufacture of mud recovery systems, especially in trenchless projects with a variety of compact mud systems available to customers. According to users’ different requirements and site area limits, KOSUN can provide mud recovery devices with different configurations to meet the requirements of different working conditions. There are usually two types of mud purification systems for trenchless construction: one is the desander swirl purification system and the other is the self-supporting mud recovery system.

Sand removal swirling purification system covers a small area and is economical. The system is a combination of a cyclone and a shaker, which are mounted on a small collection tank. The desander swirl system is a two-stage separation device, whose function is to remove coarse particles in drilling mud. The desander swirl system is mainly used in engineering that can accept large diameter solid drilling mud, such as piling.

The mud recovery system independently developed by KOSUN can be divided into four separation systems: coarse cuttings separation, sand separation, mud separation and ultrafine solid separation. The higher mud recovery system has a larger mud tank with more room to store purified drilling mud and more crown space for more separation and purification equipment. When the tank surface space is enough, the customer can also choose a centrifuge to reduce the ultra-fine solid phase in the drilling mud, to avoid the enrichment of ultra-fine solid phase in the drilling mud.

The elevated diesel tank is installed with explosion-proof floating-ball level switch.

The elevated diesel tank is installed with explosion-proof floating-ball level switch; KOSUN 40+5m³ elevated diesel tank is the special-purpose oil tank to provide and store diesel for power machines (diesel engine, generator, etc.) of drilling crew. therefore the centrifugal oil pump can deliver the oil in oil storage tank to elevated oil tank automatically. In case of low oil level, the explosion-proof level switch opens, the oil pump starts automatically and oil transportation begins; in case of high oil level, the explosion-proof level switch closes, the oil pump closes automatically, and oil transportation ends. In order to prevent failure of explosion-proof level switch, the equipment is especially installed with oil return pipe. In such a way, the oil will not overflow from the tank even under failure of level switch.

When elevated oil tank is lifted up, the oil pressure rises. The oil in tank will be transported to equipment requiring diesel at drilling site from three channels through filter and flowmeter, and it can also flow back to the oil storage tank. The oil consumed by equipment can be read out from pointer of flowmeter.

After the elevated diesel tank is installed, check to ensure that all valves are in corresponding states. Park the refueling truck beside the oil tank, connect the outlet opening with oil feeding buffer tank or inlet opening before opening it and choose to start the 50CYZ-20 centrifugal oil pump; pay attention to the rotation direction of the oil pump. After opening or closing corresponding ball valves, and starting the oil pump, the oil flows into oil storage tank through filter, flowmeter, pipeline, ball valve and centrifugal oil pump. With liquid surface rising, the column of magnetic reversible level meter display changes from white to red. The junction of white and red colors indicates the liquid level of oil storage tank.
