Mud Recycling Systems is also called  mud reclaimer or recycler. It is a solids control device designed to filter and clean drilling fluid coming back from a drill bore. Normally, Mud Recycling Systems consists of shale shaker,  desander (depending upon the size of the unit),  desilter and a mud tank with compartments for both incoming dirty and cleaned fluid.
 

 

We know the main functions of drilling fluid are to provide hydrostatic pressure to prevent formation fluids from entering and to stabilize the bore, to keep the drill bit cool and clean,  to carry drill cuttings back out to the surface, and to suspend the drill cuttings while drilling is paused or during the pullback process. Drilling fluid containing excess cuttings can easily damage the pistons, liners, and valves of a mud pump, therefore it’s critical to clean the fluid down to trace amounts of solids.

 

1.  Provide the fresh mud for drilling rig, such as HDD rig, pipe jacking machine.

Mud Recycling Systems can provide the fresh mud for drilling rig, such as HDD rig, pipe jacking machine. The shale shaker separates larger solids approximately 400 micron and larger, the desander separates solids approximately 100 micron and larger, and the desilter separates solids approximately 40 micron and larger. After the fluid processes through the desilter and deposited into the clean tank, it can then be pumped to the mud pump to be pumped back downhole.

 

2. Save bentonite and cost

Many locations now will not allow the dumping of mud just anywhere. Recycling allows for great cost savings of bentonite, a vital ingredient of drilling fluid. You can reuse your fluid for extended periods without the need for immediate disposal.
