1. Mud Water Separation
The mud water separation system is applicable to the mud purification and recovery of pile foundation works (including rotary drilling, percussive drilling, etc.), anti-seepage wall works (diaphragm wall, double wheel milling), mud water balance shield construction and mud water pipe jacking construction using mud retaining wall and circulating drilling technology. Greatly improve the reuse rate of waste mud, avoid the random discharge of mud, help customers reduce construction costs, civilized and environmentally friendly construction.
KES Separation shield tunneling desanding plant, can also be called TBM desanding plant or piling desanding plant or mud water separation plant or construction mud desander. The desanding plant has wide applications in construction mud treatment and engineering mud recycling. KES Separation Mud Water Separation system is a necessary equipment of foundation construction, used for pile foundation projects adopting slurry hole/tunnel wall supporting, rotary drilling rig, circular drilling technology; Diaphragm wall project and slurry purification recycling of slurry pipe-jacking construction, with the features of reducing construction cost, increasing construction efficiency. KES Separation Desanding plant can control the mud performance, increase drilling efficiency, save drilling cost and minimize environmental impact.

Slurry water separation process for shield tunneling
The slurry separation system process design needs to be tailored according to the project geological structure and shield machine parameters. We have professional process engineers for seamless project docking. The type selection of all equipment shall be strictly designed and calculated to combine the actual working conditions of the project.
KSTBM slurry separation system produced by our company is mainly applicable to ¢ 6m – ¢ 13.5m slurry balanced shield machine, meeting the requirements of 650-520m ³/ H Requirements for mud circulating treatment. KSTBM mud water separation station can perfectly meet the needs of tunneling technology. It can continuously separate the slurry suspension from the solid particles in the slurry loop. The combination of high exciting force screening equipment and low tangential point cyclone effectively reduces the water content of waste slag and the solid content of mud. The extremely small particles left in the mud have an important influence on the driving speed and daily footage and other parameters.
