In the drilling industry, shale shaker is the first equipment that does the filtration process. The purpose here is minimizing cutting solids in the mud. A shale shaker is the first line of defense in minimizing the cuttings content because it separates the largest solids first. The screens consist of different layers of mesh and are vibrated in order to increase the filtration efficiency.
This week, DC Solid control company shipped 10 sets of DCS700-3 shale shakers to Kazakhstan market. The shale shaker should employ all screen areas to remove solids from drilling fluid and minimize the drilling fluid loss. The screen vibration pushes the particles uphill over the screen and mud is collected at the underside of the screen.
There is a limitation in shale shakers’ operations in which filtration performance alters as the feed properties change. Typical vibrating screens vibrate with a constant speed and constant motors forces which results in acceleration on the screen. In handling the huge volume of drilling mud, the acceleration usually decreases as mudflows into the screen. Shakers operating in the oil industry have higher acceleration than the required magnitude to be able to have enough acceleration when heavily loaded.
