Drilling Mud Centrifugal Degasser

The vertical centrifugal degasser is a kinda new model of degasser, specialized in processing gas cut drilling fluids. It is installed after shale shaker and widely used in the various solids control system, and it is very important for recovering mud weight, stabilizing mud viscosity performance, reduce drilling cost. Meantime it can be used as a big power blender. Its advantages are large capacity, high rate of degassing, less area required, low energy consumption, easy operation, and maintenance.

The atmospheric degasser is equipment holding high treating capacity, high efficiency, compactness, and ease of operation. The filtration screen and impeller are welded by S.S. It’s holding a high ability to resist corrosion.

AIPU APLCQ300 vertical centrifugal degasser is an effective and simple design, the drilling mud falls within the submerged pump of degasser through a 20” spiraled inlet and fluids outlet size 6” size, the fluids falls down and gas was pressed upwards to a 2“ gas outlet. Please bellowing AIPU degasser specification.

Application of vertical centrifugal degasser

Via the rotating impeller, the degasser sucks the drilling fluid into the vessel. The fluids will stay at a level higher than the gas-cut drilling fluid and then a cylindrical liquid layer with an inverted cone shape space in the middle will be formed. Drilling fluid is discharged from the discharge port along a tangent line. With the impeller rotating, bubble breaks, gas will be extracted from liquid, and finally, accumulate in the cone shape space as the lower density. Pressurizing unit(similar to an exhaust fan) will suck air through the narrow channel between the air distribution disk and air separation ring into the discharge cone, and then gas manifold, braided hose, and pressurized device to pressuring unit, finally discharge the gas out through pressuring device with pressure.

A vertical centrifugal degasser provides an innovative and small footprint solution compared to the traditional vacuum degasser which is a larger footprint. It is using centrifugal force to separate gas instead of a conventional vacuum. We are one of the leading manufacturers of poor boy degasser, vacuum degasser, and centrifugal mud degasser.

The vertical centrifugal degasser is popular with more and more users. Given the compact design and its flow rate. Compared to other suppliers’ degasser, AIPU provides high-quality products and services in detail. Such as drilling mud input and the vacuum pump design. Please feel free to contact us for more detail.

Other than the centrifugal degasser, AIPU builds vacuum degasser as well and also other solids control equipment like linear motion shale shaker, mud cleaner with cyclone and bottom shaker, decanter centrifuge, mud agitator, and mud tank. Please contact us freely for inquiry.

Degassers remove gas from the mud by accelerating the fluid through a submerged pump impeller and up a riser pipe, where the fluid sprays the baffle plate at the center of the spray tank, above the mud surface. The fluid is fanned out from the baffle plate with high velocity, creating a thin sheet that impacts the wall of the spray tank. Degassing occurs as the gas particles are brought to the mud surface by the high impact and turbulence of the thin spray sheet at the wall of the spray tank. The degassed fluid collects at the base of the spray tank and flows out of the discharge trough to the next pit. The gases escape through the top of the spray tank and dissipate into the atmosphere. This unit does not require an external feed pump.
