Elgin Separation Solutions applications

Elgin Separation Solutions complete line of liquid / solid separation and dewatering equipment is fully compliant with all requirements for the oil & gas industry. Utilizing our closed loop technology project sites will be able to reclaim clean water and recovered drilling fluid that is cost effective and environmentally safe. Featuring shale shakers, decanter centrifuges, vertical cuttings dryers and dewatering systems.

Dredging is the process of removing organic and/or inorganic sediment from the bottom of shallow water bodies in order to economically dispose of those sediments and/or have them repurposed for land farming or construction purposes. Elgin Separation Solutions manufactures effective solid recycling systems capable of handling high flow capacity. Elgin`s linear motion shakers have the largest screening surface area on the market. In addition, we have complete desilter and desander hydrocyclone manifolds incorporated into packaged trailer mounted systems making for an ideal mobile recycling solution.

The HDD, trenchless and underground construction industry has realized the benefits and economics of recycling drilling fluid and slurry. With increased transportation costs and more stringent environmental enforcements and overall cost containment, the need for recycling is evident in all countries and across the range of trenchless applications. From maxi and mini HDD rigs to microtunneling and pipe jacking, packaged mud recycling units and mud reclaimers are an invaluable asset. The below diagram represents a closed loop zero discharge work site.

Today`s construction industry focuses a great deal on underground drilling and support systems. These processes typically use drilling fluid or slurry techniques. Packaged mud recycling systems are designed to minimize solids waste for disposal and effectively clean drilling fluid and slurry for active reuse.  Foundation Drillers utilize drilling fluids for stability of holes during operation. Mud reclaimers process the used drilling fluid for continuous use downhole and creates less solids waste.

Elgin Separation Solutions mining and aggregate division manufactures a complete line of Vibratory Screen, Screen Scroll & Vibratory Centrifuges, Profile Wire & Polyurethane Screens, and Repair & Remanufacturing Services.

Saving Money, Time, and the Environment Through Chemistry A General Process Philosophy Description of Elgin’s Drilling Fluid Dewatering Systems.   The drilling industry is regulated by a myriad of environmental regulations that protect our air, water, and land resources.  As these regulations continue to evolve, so too must the technologies utilized by the drilling industry.  Though lowering compliance costs is always a worthy initiative, incorporating technology that also enhances the drilling process by improving down-hole conditions and lowering the consumption of chemicals and drilling fluid additives is the ultimate goal.
