Mud Cleaners
The M-I SWACO line of mud cleaners consists of a two-stage separation process using a combination of hydrocyclones mounted over a shale shaker to operate as a single unit.
Designed to handle the entire circulating volume, mud cleaners are effective on both weighted and unweighted drilling-fluid systems in removing and drying solids while retaining the expensive liquid. The hydrocyclones make the primary separation with underflow directed onto the shaker’s vibrating screen.
Used correctly, the M-I SWACO mud cleaners lower both drilling-fluid and disposal costs.
