Desander and desilter in solids control system

Desanders and desilters are solid control equipment with a set of hydrocyclones that separate sand and silt from the drilling fluids in drilling rigs. Desanders are installed on top of the mud tank following the shale shaker and the degasser, but before the desilter. Desander removes the abrasive solids from the drilling fluids which cannot be removed by shakers. Normally the solids diameter for desander to be separated would be 45~74μm, and 15~44μm for desilter.

Desander in solids control system

Desander is the second stage of solids control equipment in solids control system. It is mainly used to take away the solids with diameter ranging from 45 to 74 μm from the formerly treated fluids and then send them to the next stage for more purification.

desilter in solids control system

Desilter is the third stage of solids control equipment in solids control system. In this case, the solids with diameter ranging from 15 to 44 μm are to be separated from the rest,which will go through further processing.

Solids control is a technique used in drilling rig to separate the solids in the drilling fluids that are crushed by the drill bits and carried out of the well surface. Normally drilling rig solid control system consist of five stages, including mud tank, shale shaker, vacuum degasser, desander, desilter, decanter centrifuge.
