Thermal desorption unit is normally known as TDU. It is a kind of Ultimate equipment for oily waste management. The Thermal desorption unit (TDU) is a High-tech products, few company has the capability and technology to make it.
GN Thermal Desorption Unit is an ex-situ, non-incineration technology. It is designed to separate hydrocarbons from various matrices including oilfield drilling cuttings waste, oil based drill cuttings, oily contaminated soil, oil sludge and sand, filter-cake, tank and tanker bottoms, organic-based hazardous waste and contaminated soil in a non-oxidizing atmosphere without destroying the hydrocarbons. The TDU technology has been used extensively for waste management, the main function is for recovery of the oil from the waste material as a sellable product throughout the world.
Many clients showed great interest on the design of GN Thermal desorption unit (TDU) technology. There are mainly 2 designs developed by GN Solids Control.
From 2015 to June, 2016, GN Solids Control have been working on the design of the drum type TDU. But GN stopped that project after 2016. After that GN Solids Control shift to design the screw type TDU from July, 2016. So now, GN Solids Control does not make drum type Thermal desorption unit (TDU).
GN Solids Control latest design on is similar to TPS, but not TPS, TPS is a single screw in one tube, with different tubes.
GN Solids Control design is as following:
1) One tube, two auger system for self cleaning, it’s better than the single tube system.
2) Temperature can go up to 700 C degree which suits the drilling cuttings and oil sludge to recovery oil and water.
3) GN Solids Control have a dust removing unit before condensing, so it makes it easier for oil water, solids separation.
GN Solids Control already have the major components, like tube material, burners, air lock valves and Fin-Fan coolers etc in the factory to shorten the manufacturing time.
