As a leading solution provider for separation and conveying, GN Solids Control has participated in designing different machines for the separation industry, including solids control equipment with coarse shaker, shale shaker, mud cleaner and decanter centrifuge. Besides those, there are other equipment for separation involved in GN products range, too. And before separation, the material shall be transported to feed the separation equipment. Such equipment for transferring are also within in GN’s products range, like the slurry pumps, centrifugal pumps and vacuum pumps.

Those separation solutions are not to be used in oil and gas industry only, but also in other industries, including
For example, in a recent project, GN has supplied to an ES company a screw press dewatering unit and some solids vacuum pumps.

What is a screw press dewatering unit? It is a quite economic and environmental friendly equipment used for sludge dewatering. It is comparably a new design with principle as sludge extrusion by a screw. By changing the screw diameters and screw pitch, there is a squeezing force generated, and such force helps to extrude the liquid from the solids, just a bit like you squeeze a wet towel. Comparing with a filter press, it saves chemicals and more friendly to environment.

What is solids vacuum pump? Solids vacuum pump is not only for solids, but also suitable for liquid or oily sludge transferring. It is named with “solids” because comparing with normal pumps, it requests for smaller liquidate and larger particle sizes. The only limit of material size is the inlet pipe diameter. And it is a vacuum pump because it is fully driven by compressed air and it is suitable for Explosive Proof conditions.

For both of above mentioned equipment, GN Solids Control has different models for option, based on: 1. Various treating capacities. 2. Explosive proof standards, 3. Several common materials for option for equipment main body.
