After days of hard work, GN Solids Control has finished the helicopter lifted mud tank systems for one Australia. Last week they rented two air-crafts to transport this whole mud system to Papua New Guinea.
This is another compact helicopter lifting mud system we provided in this year. In order to move easily, GN Solid designed and manufactured this system into compact small systems.
Here are the mainly treating modules in this compact mud systems:
1.GN Gas Separator Unit
GN mud gas separator is put on a skid for easy moving. A large supporting skid is used to hold the gas separator when lay down. GN mud gas separator is used to eliminate large bubbles in the drilling mud.
2.GN Shaker Unit
There are several shale shakers on the shaker module, a box feeding is used to distribute drilling mud to those multiple shake shakers. Larger particles more than 100 microns can be separated out by GN shale shaker.
3.GN Desander Unit
After treated by GN shaker, drilling mud is feed by centrifugal pump to GN desander. A helicopter lifting frame is used to transport the shaker unit and desander unit.
4.GN Mud Mixing Unit
A mud mixing hopper is used to add drilling chemicals and mix drilling mud. The hopper is using a venturi hopper to mix the drilling mud.
All the above treating equipment can be divided in to some smaller treating units. Every individual system can be lifted by a helicopter when arrived at customer’s work site. As all the mud tanks systems are connected with drilling pipes etc, after arrived at work site they just need to connect with the pipe lines between those mud tanks.
GN Solids Control is especially good at providing turnkey solids and liquid separation systems. Feel free to connect with us if you need any mud separating systems.

As one of the largest environmental shows in the world, the 2019 Italy Ecomondo show had thousands of professional visitors. It was held in Rimini Expo Center in Italy from Nov. 5th to 8th.
GN Separation and Conveying is the sister company of GN Solids Control, it participated in many different environmental shows this year. Months ago, one branch comapany GN Solids America also participated in WEFTEC in Chicago, which is another largest waster water treating show in North America.
Every time when GN Separation and Conveying goes out to participate different shows, GN prefers to bring some real equipment instead of only exhibit some fancy pictures. We always hold the principle that ‘Seeing is Believing’.
In the 2019 Italy Ecomondo, GN Separation and Conveying exhibited one decanter centrifuge and one vacuum pump.
1.GN Decanter Centrifuge GNLW224E
GN Separation and Conveying manufacturing different sizes of decanter centrifuges, includes 9 inch, 14inch, 18inch, 22inch and 30 inch bowl centrifuges.
GN made 4 series centrifuges are especially designed for thickening, detwatering and cleaning. In order to meet the treating demands for different slurry or materials, GN Separation and Conveying made centrifuges have different screw propeller angles, cone and strait part ratio is also varies, also we provide single edge and double edge propellers.
Centrifugal rotating bowl is made of centrifugal casting by stainless steel. Inside screw propeller is protected by tungsten carbide tiles. All the solids discharge ports are also protected by tungsten inserts.
2.GN Vacuum Pump GNSP-10B
GN Vacuum Pump is one of the most cost effective transfer pumps. It helps to transfer high content solids with large viscosity and density.
GN builds 3 different models: 40B, 20B and 10B. Transfer capacity is 40 m3/h, 20 m3/h and 10 m3/h.
During working a air compressor should be used to provide power. Different size pumps need different air pressure.

GN Solids Control is especially good at providing customized systems, actually as long as it’s solids and liquid separation, GN Solids Control is able to provide a cost effective solution for our customers.
In 2019, GN Solids Control has provided many sets of Automatic Tank Cleaning Systems for global customers. Today we would like to share one automatic tank cleaning system that we provided to a South American customer. We all know that most of the tank cleaning companies are hiring many workers to clean tank, but by the usage of GN automatic cleaning system, 2 workers can do the clean 5 to 6 tanks compared to 6 workers clean 2 tanks in one day.
Here are the main GN Solids Control treating system:
1.GN Suction Pump
GN suction pump is connect with a filter before sucking those mud/sludge. With the flow rate of 30 m3/h, it can clean one tank in 2 hours.
2.GN Chemical Dosing Unit
Here GN Solids provides a 2000 L chemical dosing system, with 2 sets 1000 L/H dosing pumps. It provides flocculants to inclined plate clarifier.
3.GN Inclined Plate Clarifier
GN inclined plate clarifier (also clled IPC) if fixed with many pieces of thin plate to increase the contact surface area, solids will fall to the bottom and transferred by a screw conveyor, where there is membrane pump used to transfer the solids sediment.
4.GN Buffer Tank
A 7.5 m3 buffer tank is used to provide clean water for the high pressure discharge pump.
5.GN Discharge Pump
Depend on the flushing nozzle or flush guns, GN Solids Control provides 8 bar or 15 bar customized high pressure discharge pump to suck the clean water from GN buffer tank.
6.High Flushing Gun
Flushing gun is fixed on the top of the mud tank to clean the mud tank inside automatically, gun direction can be changed based on the mud tank type.

GN Solids Control is a leading manufacturer in solids and liquid separation area. GN Solids Control manufactures shale shaker, desander, desilter, mud cleaner, decanter centrifuge etc, besides those standard equipment, GN Solids Control also designs and manufactures compact mud systems.
GN made HDD mud recycling system is especially used in the horizontal directional drilling industry. GN HDD mud recycling system mainly includes submersible pump, shaker shaker, centrifugal pump and mud tank.
Now GN Solids Control has 2 different types: one is compact mud system and the other is high configuration mud system. The main difference of these two types of mud systems is the high configuration mud system is equipped with a larger mud tank to storage the recycled drilling mud which can be used in horizontal drilling rig activity.
Every year, GN Solids Control manufactures more than 200 sets horizontal directional drilling mud systems, they are widely used in more than seventy countries and regions.
Depend on the mud system flow rate, GN Solids Control provides different sizes of shale shakers, single deck shaker and double deck shaker. A submersible pump is usually used to feed slurry into shale shaker from the mud pit. Shale shaker is fixed with different API nos shaker screens, different sizes solids can be separated out. One centrifugal pump is used to suck the slurry discharged from the shale shaker and feed into the cyclones. 10 inch cyclones and 4 inch cyclones are used to eliminate different size particles.
GN Solids Control has many standard models for customers to choose includes 250 GPM, 350 GPM, 500 GPM and 1000 GPM. Besides those standard systems, GN Solids Control also builts customized mud recycling systems.
GN Solids Control systems are widely using in many different sizes of solids and liquid separation areas, besides the HDD mud recycling systems, GN Solids Control also provides oil and gas drilling mud systems, mining slurry treating systems and hydorvac slurry treating systems.
