Microtunneling Recirculation Slurry System

Microtunneling Recirculation Slurry System

Micro-tunneling pipe laying, using a remote-controlled, steerable pipe jacking system for trenchless pipe laying. Microtunneling  is a tunnel construction technique used to construct utility tunnels from approximately 0.5–4 m in diameter. Micro-tunneling pipe laying is a very popular construction in various kinds of trenchless construction. Recirculation Slurry System is a good helper for Micro-tunneling pipe laying construction for the Micro-tunneling pipe laying construction with slurry work, Recirculation Slurry System help Micro-tunneling machines separate the slurry from the hole, Recirculation Slurry System clean the slurry, separate the solids phase from slurry, so that the slurry can be used Recirculation.

Features of Microtunneling Construction

  • The working face of the large shaft in the micro-tunnel occupies a relatively small area, which satisfies the purpose of reducing the area occupied by the city and production workshop during construction.
  • The diameter of the micro-tunnel excavation is small, and the pipe material is generally made of steel belt reinforced pipe, which can be assembled by bolts, which can be assembled and dismantled easily. After dismantling, it can also be reused to reduce the construction cost.
  • After the micro-tunnel jointing is completed, the outside of the jointed pipe and the ground soil are mixed with cement and poured with mud, which does not affect the load-bearing of the ground. Various types of pipes can be laid in the jointed pipe for a wide range of applications.

    Advantage of use Recirculation Slurry System for Microtunneling Construction

    • Fully separation the slurry is conducive to controlling the performance index of the slurry.
    • The Recirculation Slurry System from the drilling hole can be recovered 80-90%, can save sodium soil and other raw materials 40-50%, the discharge of solids moisture content can be controlled within 30%.
    • Optimized Design greatly saves the floor space, compressing the collective and increasing the convenience of transportation.
    • Closed-circuit circulation of mud and low water content of slag material are beneficial to reduce environmental pollution.
    • Reduced the cost for Configure new slurry, reduce the time for Configure new slurry, so Recirculation Slurry System can save the cost to a great extent.

    Recirculation Slurry System for Microtunneling

    Recirculation Slurry System can separate the solids phase from slurry, so that the slurry can be used Recirculation for Microtunneling Machines. Recirculation use of slurry for Microtunneling Machines reduced the cost for Configure new slurry, reduce the time for Configure new slurry, so Recirculation Slurry Systemcan save the cost to a great extent.
    According to the construction technology characteristics of micro-tunnel drilling and the requirements of construction work site, we can choose to configure different products to meet the requirements of Microtunneling construction. Firstly, we need consider the maximum size of solid particles in slurry, the Microtunneling Machines and mud pump can carry in the slurry. Then we can choose shale shaker, Desander, Desilter, Decanter Centrifuge or filter press for the Recirculation Slurry System. Secondly, we need to consider the stratigraphic conditions, rock, clay or sandy soil. If there is clay, we need to add Pre-Screener for Recirculation Slurry System.
