60 m³/H (Desanders) Particle Mud Sieve

60 m³/h Desanders Particle Mud Sieve

Desanders are used to separate sand and other particles from drilling mud. During drilling and excavation processes, drilling mud (bentonite) gets mixed with contaminants such as sand and clay. After the drilling process is completed, the mud should be processed and cleaned by separating these substances from the mixture. This way, clean mud can be used for the next process and the drilling mud becomes ready for concrete casting.

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

SKC Makina produces three types of sand separators named SKD2200, SKD4400, and SKD840 based on their capacities.
SKC Makina also manufactures dual cyclone sand separators called SKD 4400D as desilter sand separators. The first cycloning is the same as the first and second processes 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, separation will be at 20-30 microns.
