20 m³/h Desanders Particle Mud Sieve

Desanders are used to separate sand and other particles from drilling muds. During drilling and excavation operations, drilling mud (bentonite) mixes with pollutants such as sand and clay. When the drilling process is completed, the drilling mud should be processed and cleaned by separating these substances from the mixture. This way, clean mud can be used for the next operation and the drilling mud becomes ready for concreting.

The first process takes place on a steel plate sieve where 4 mm materials are separated. The second process occurs by pumping the mud into the hydrocyclone. Here, 50 micron particles are separated.

SKC Makina produces three types of sand separators named SKD2200, SKD4400, and SKD840 according to their capacities.
SKC Makina also manufactures dual cyclone sand separators called SKD 4400D, known as desiltered sand separators. The first cycloning is the same as the first and second process of the desander. In this process, 50-micron particles are separated. The mud is then pumped into small hydrocyclones for the second cycloning. After this process, the separation will be of 20-30 microns.
