The KOSUN Vertical Cutting Dryer uses centrifugal force to dry drilled solids in oil or synthetic base fluids. A stainless steel screen bowl traps “wet” solids and accelerates them up 900RPM. Liquid is forced through the screen bowl openings, while “dry” solids are extracted by the angled flights attached to the cone, which rotate slightly slower than the bowl. Tungsten carbide protects the flights from abrasive solids and ensures long operational life. This aids in maintaining a constant gap between the scroll and screen bowl, which is crucial for proper operation.
Working Principle of Vertical Cuttings Dryer
Vertical cuttings dryer can separate of solids and liquids by indicates of centrifugal force and collect the oil in the oil based drill cuttings or synthetic primarily based drilling fluids. The drilling cuttings is feed into the top hopper, by means of the screen basket and rotor, by the effect of centrifugal force, the fluids and fine solids pass through the screen mesh, and after that discharged through fluids output pipe and drop in to the mud tank, you will find 2 fluids output pipe, one particular of them is blocked along with the other one worked as fluids drain pipe. The significant solids or coal particles are retained around the screen basket and scraped down by the scrapper and pushed to the bottom of your screen basket and discharged through a solids trough. The discharged drill cuttings contained equal or less than 5% by weight, it really is dry enough to become shipped directly.
Applications of Vertical Cuttings Dryer
We use a vertical centrifuge system right after solids control system within the drilling waste management. A vertical cuttings dryer program firstly gather the cuttings separated from solids control system( shale shakers) by the screw conveyor, then fed into the vertical cuttings dryer, then the discharged the liquids is feed by nemo pump for the decanter centrifuge, the clean fluids is reused for make the drilling fluids once more. The drilling cuttings is drying and lessen oil in the drill cuttings.
