Why is KOSUN DN series electronic ignition device favored by the market?

The electronic ignition and combustion device, designed and manufactured by Xian KOSUN, is a kind of treatment facility for tail gas and vented natural gas in refinery plants and natural gas gathering transportation stations. As safe and environmentally friendly equipment, it can ignite and burn vented harmful flammable gases to eliminate their hazards to environment and safety. Moreover, the ignition device can also be used along with drilling mud-gas separators in the area of petroleum drilling engineering. As a fairly matured product, it has been extensively applied in oil and gas fields in Xinjiang and Sichuan Provinces of China, Iran, Egypt, Venezuela, etc. The ignition device mainly consists of DN200 (or DN150) gas burner (torch), GDH-2 electronic igniter, igniting tools (including l

China May Build the Third West-East Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline.

According to a report, in order to meet the strong demand for natural gas in its vibrant eastern coastal region, China may build the third West-East Gas Pipeline. The report said that the third West-East Gas Pipeline will be laid from Xinjiang in western China, and terminal may be in Fujian Province in southeastern China. It will transport natural gas from Xinjiang to the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta with more energy consumption in China. A few days ago, an official from the planning department of China National Petroleum Corporation, a state-owned oil giant in China, said that CNPC would announce a preliminary plan for laying the third West-East Gas Pipeline early next year. The length of the project may be similar to that of a natural gas pipeline that CNPC started to bu

What is the process of reclaiming water reuse as a sewage treatment method?

In order to meet the water discharge quality standard of the treated sewage, the reclaimed water reuse equipment is generally used to treat the sewage to meet the reclaimed water quality standard. The technological process of reclaimed water reuse can be commonly divided into three stages: pretreatment stage, main treatment stage and aftertreatment stage. 1. Pretreatment stage: this stage mainly has two processing units, where one is a grid, and the other is a regulating pool, which are mainly used to effectively remove solid impurities in sewage and uniformly process the water quality. 2. Main treatment stage: at this stage, the dissolved organic matter in the sewage will be effectively removed, so this stage is the most critical link. 3. Aftertreatment stage: the main function of this st

KOSUN VD series vacuum degasser features in low price, high quality and good degassing effect.

KOSUN VD series vacuum degasser is a new-type special equipment of treating gas-cut drilling fluid, which is developed by KOSUN on the basis of integrating a variety of degassers at home and abroad. It is applicable for supporting various mud purification systems, plays an important role in recovering the specific gravity of mud, stabilizing the viscosity performance of mud and reducing the drilling cost, and can also be used as a high-power agitator for air-free mud. KOSUN VD series degasser is a vacuum-type one, that is, by dint of the suction effect of vacuum pump, negative pressure is created in vacuum chamber, and under the effect of atmospheric pressure, the mud enters the hollow shaft of rotor via suction pipe and then sprays onto the chamber wall from the ejector ports in hollow sh

What are the main functions and features of KOSUN LS screw conveyor?

Screw conveyor is a kind of continuous conveying equipment by using screw rotation to push materials, which is suitable for transporting flour, grain, cement, chemical fertilizer, ash and slag, sand, pebble, coal dust, small-sized coal, etc. Due to its small effective flow area inside, screw conveyor is not suitable to convey perishable, strongly cohesive and easily-lumped materials. Screw conveyor can be horizontal or inclined (the tilt angle less than 20o for GX type and 15o for LS type). If the deflecting conveying is required, it will be specially customized. Its ambient temperature range is generally within -45oC~+40oC. Its ambient temperature range is generally within -45oC~+40oC, and its storage temperature is generally within -60oC~+50oC. LS screw conveyor is suitable for horizonta

What is the slurry pressurized balanced shield?

The slurry pressurized balanced shield means that a partition is set in front of mechanical shield to form a slurry compartment between the partition and the cutterhead. The stability of excavation face is achieved in this way: feed mud into the slurry compartment, form a waterproof mud film with mud on the excavation face, and maintain water pressure by the tension of mud film to balance soil pressure and water pressure on the excavation face. The soil and sand excavated are transported to the ground in the form of mud and are separated by slurry treatment equipment. The separated slurry is adjusted in specific gravity and then transported to the excavation face. KD series slurry separation system mainly consists of scalping shaker module, desander module and desilter module. As a pre-scr

What are HDD mud recovery system and its benefits?

What is HDD Mud Recovery System ? KOSUN HDD mud recovery system is developed, designed and manufactured to meet trenchless technology requirements at home and abroad and is applied in purification treatment of mud returned from underground during horizontal directional drilling process. Cuttings with big particle sizes are separated by shale shaker , mud cleaner and other solids control equipment . Mud materials required are added and evenly mixed for circulation via jet mud mixer to meet performance requirements for reuse. Mud is pumped into horizontal directional drilling system by mud pump for recycling. KOSUN HDD mud recovery system can remarkably improve mud treatment efficiency, reduce mud cost of horizontal directional drilling and greatly increase rate of penetration. Benefits of H

How to adjust the apex of KOSUN desander to achieve an optimum spray angle?

The spray pattern varies in response to the feed head (inlet pressure), feed rate and cyclone apex opening. To maximize overall desander efficiency, the spray pattern of each cone must be balanced for optimal performance. This is done by observing the lower discharge pattern and then adjusting the apex opening to achieve the correct discharge angle for the prevailing feed rate and inlet pressure. The spray patterns of cyclone underflow are adjusted through changing orifice nuts with different diameters. Ideally, the spray angle of underflow is between 20 and 30. When the spray angle is greater than 30, a hollow center is formed. In normal operation, this pattern is undesirable. This spray pattern indicates that the exit diameter of the apex is too large, and an excessive amount of liquid d
