An efficient TBM slurry separation plant is the basis for the successful use of slurry-supported tunnel boring machines(TBM). The GN Slurry separation plant is popular for project of AVN Machines , Mix shields or Shaft Sinking Machines . GN Solids Control utilize our shale shakers, desander desilter, as well as decanter centrifuges to processes separate and remove the excavated solids from the bentonite suspension – a mixture of water and thixotropic clay. The cleaned fluid is then transferred back to the slurry circulation.

Process of TBM Slurry Separation Plant
- A coarse shale shaker will remove big particles from the TBM Slurry.
- A centrifugal pump will bake the slurry and feed to coarse hydrocyclones.
- A dewatering shaker below the coarse hydro cyclones will drying the solids.
- The other centrifugal pump will pump the slurry to fine hydrocyclones for separation of solids above 20 microns.
- The fine shaker dewatering the solids discharge discharged from the fine hydrocyclones.
- Decanter centrifuge will separate solids above 2-5 microns without chemical.
- And the chemically enhanced decanter centrifuge will separate solids above 1 micron.
