GN Solids control delivered 6 packages of TBM Slurry Separation Plants to a major infrastructure project in South Korea. Specifically engineered for slurry balance TBM applications, these systems offer high-efficiency processing capacities of 500 m³/h and 750 m³/h.

To meet the rigorous demands of Korean shield tunneling projects, each plant integrates a three-stage core treatment process: a scalping shaker for coarse solids separation, followed by desander and desilter modules for fine particle control. The entire system utilizes a modular design, which ensures a compact footprint, facilitates easy assembly and disassembly on-site, and significantly reduces logistics costs. Our professional separation technology guarantees stable performance and high-quality slurry recovery, ensuring the smooth progress of tunneling operations.

The 6 units of TBM slurry separation plant including 4 sets of GNTBM-500B TBM slurry separation plant and 2 sets of GNTBM-360B TBM slurry separation plant and 6 sets of extra mud tanks, the technical configuration is as below:
GNTBM-360B TBM slurry separation plant, treating capacity 360m3/h, cut point 25~50 microns, one unit of coarse shaker installed slopped opening polyurethane screens, to remove large cuttings and gravel to protect downstream pumps and equipment. installed 2ea of 16 inch desander cone and 10ea of 6 inch desilter cone, 2ea of 75KW centrifugal pump as feeding pump of the desander cone and desilter cone.

GNTBM-500B TBM slurry separation plant, treating capacity 500m3/h, cut point 15~30 microns, one unit of coarse shaker installed slopped opening polyurethane screens, installed 2ea of 20 inch desander cone and 14ea of 6 inch desilter cone, 2ea of 90KW centrifugal pump as feeding pump of the desander cone and desilter cone.
The modular TBM slurry separation plant is installed on top of the extra customized size mud tanks. If you need a customized design TBM slurry separation plant, pls contact with GN solids engineer.
