GN Solids Control has within its line of development the manufacture of complete mining sludge treatment systems for clients in the mining industry. As a leading manufacturer of solids control equipment and waste management treatment systems, GN Solids Control has provided products to more than 70 countries.
In the mining area, some customers use high-pressure water to wash minerals, because those finer particles are also very expensive, they also need to recycle small particles. This GN mining sludge treatment system is used to recycle expensive particles. It mainly includes the following three parts:
1. GN High G-Force Vibratory Screen
A vibrating shaker is one of the most used treatment equipment for the separation of solids and liquids. Using the high G-force (up to 8.0 G), the slurry separates on the shale shaker screens due to gravity differences between the solid and liquid. GN Solids Control manufactures thousands of vibrating screens each month. Many replacement screens are used on Mi-Swaco, Derrick, NOV, FSI and Kemtron shale shakers.
The GN centrifuge is the second stage of treatment. After treatment with a GN Hi-G agitator, solids larger than 100 microns can be separated, while smaller solids or particles need to be further treated using 10-inch or 4-inch GN cyclones. Sometimes GN decanter centrifuges are directly used to separate the particles larger than 2~5 microns. Here GN recommends using an 18-inch rotary bowl centrifuge, which is GNW452. GN centrifuges are widely used in various areas, many big customers like Shell, Baker Hughes or Bariod are using GN centrifuges.
3. GN mud tank
The GN Hi-G agitator and centrifuge are mounted in the mud tank. And there is also a screw feed pump (feed decanter centrifuge) fixed on the side tank.
With this compact design, the GN mining sludge treatment system can be easily moved between different sites.
