HDD Mud Recycling - KOSUN provides mud recycling and solid-liquid separation systems for Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) projects. During HDD construction, drilling mud carries cuttings out of the borehole, lubricates the drilling tools, stabilizes the borehole, cools the drill bit, and helps control formation pressure. As the drilling process continues, the mud collects more solid particles. An effective recycling system therefore helps maintain mud performance and supports continuous drilling operations. HDD Drilling Mud HDD drilling mud plays an important role throughout the drilling process. It carries drilled cuttings out of the borehole and helps keep the drilling fluid in circulation. In addition, the mud…
Tailings Treatment - Tailings Treatment & Dewatering KOSUN provides tailings treatment and dewatering solutions for mineral processing operations, supporting the separation, dewatering, and dry stacking of tailings. The treatment process combines classification, concentration, centrifugal dewatering, and filtration to reduce tailings water content and support the recovery and reuse of process water. Tailings Dry Stacking Tailings are generated during mineral processing and contain both solid particles and process water. Effective dewatering can reduce the volume of wet tailings, improve water recovery, and support dry stacking. KOSUN's tailings treatment process is designed to separate water from tailings and produce a dewatered solid fraction for dry…
Dredging Sludge Treatment - KOSUN provides solid-liquid separation and sludge dewatering systems for river, lake, reservoir, and pipeline dredging applications. The systems are designed to separate solids and liquids from dredged slurry, reduce sludge volume, and support the handling, transportation, and reuse of treated materials. River and Lake Dredging Sediment accumulation can reduce the effective flow section of rivers and affect flood control, drainage, irrigation, and the operation of related water infrastructure. Dredged sediment may also contain organic matter and pollutants that can affect water quality and aquatic environments. KOSUN dredging sludge treatment systems provide an integrated solution for the separation and dewatering of…
Oily Sludge Treatment - KOSUN provides oily sludge treatment systems for oily sludge generated during oil and gas production, oil gathering and transportation, crude oil storage, and refining. What Is Oily Sludge? Oily sludge is an industrial solid waste generated during oil and gas production, storage, transportation, and refining. It typically contains crude oil, water, and inorganic minerals. Due to its complex composition, oily sludge can contain water-in-oil (W/O) and oil-in-water (O/W) phases, suspended solids, and high-viscosity components. These characteristics make oily sludge difficult to settle and treat, while its sources and composition can vary significantly. Environmental Concerns of Oily Sludge Untreated oily sludge…
TBM Muck Treatment Solutions - TBM Muck Treatment for Shield Tunneling TBM muck treatment is designed to handle the excavated material generated during EPB shield tunneling. The muck mainly consists of excavated soil, slurry, additives, and groundwater. KOSUN provides a TBM muck treatment system for separating sand, fine sand, and soil from excavated muck, followed by dewatering and volume reduction. The treated materials can then be handled for transportation and potential reuse. Integrated TBM Muck Treatment System KOSUN’s TBM muck treatment system uses a modular configuration. The main equipment includes slurry preparation equipment, coarse screening equipment, sand washing equipment, fine screening equipment, desanding hydrocyclones, slurry…
Drilling Fluid Solids Control System - Drilling operations generate large volumes of drilling fluid containing drill cuttings, sand and other unwanted solids. Without effective solids control, the continuous accumulation of solids can affect drilling fluid properties, increase equipment wear and reduce the efficiency of the circulation system. KOSUN provides drilling fluid solids control solutions designed to separate unwanted solids, maintain drilling fluid performance and support efficient fluid circulation and reuse throughout the drilling process. Drilling Fluid Challenges in Drilling Operations During drilling, drilling fluid continuously circulates between the well and the surface treatment system. As it carries drill cuttings back to the surface, the concentration of…
