Solids Removal APZCQ Carbon Steel API Vacuum Degasser

APZCQ Vacuum Degasser for well drilling, Solids Removal, Rig Equipment

Summary of APZCQ vacuum degasser 

APZCQ Vacuum degasser has a more efficient vertical tank design than traditional horizontal degassers, offering over 217% more surface area than alternative designs. This additional capacity results in no increase in vessel size, tank space requirements, unit weight, or reconfiguration of pit arrangements. A 5 HP vacuum pump, capable of pulling 29” Hg, draws mud into the degassing chamber where decreased pressure causes gas bubbles to surface from the fluid more rapidly. A stacked, corrugated fiberglass leaf arrangement and multiple feed ports provide higher fluid impact, thinner layers of mud dispersion, and greater turbulence for more efficient gas removal. Aipu's degassers offer convenient access to the leaf assembly and float mechanisms (without having to remove the vessel lid) through an oversized access door. This feature significantly reduces downtime and maintenance costs compared to other units. The Vacu-Flo 1200 has a leaf area of 16,755 in2 (10.8 m²).

While the degasser is in use, there shall be no tank bottom equalization between the degasser compartment and those adjacent to it. The degasser capacity shall be at least equal to the planned circulation rate in all of the hole intervals in which gas intrusion is considered to be a hazard

APZCQ series Vacuum Degasser is a special-purpose device and a new type one for the treatment of gas in the drilling fluids. It can get rid of various gas of invasive drilling quickly. Vacuum degasser is very important for returning mud gravity, stabilizing mud viscosity, and reducing drilling costs. Also, at the same time vacuum, degasser can be used as a heavy-power agitator and supported applicable to all types of mud circulation purification system. The vacuum degasser design of the structure is scientific and rational. So we are able to achieve an effective gas-liquid separation, filter out impurities and to ensure that the exhaust pipe is always smooth.

Technical parameters of APZCQ vacuum degasser

Principle and application of APZCQ vacuum degasser

Vacuum degasser utilizes negative pressure by the vacuum pump to withdraw entrained gases from the mud. In order for this to work, mud is pumped through a venturi, which develops a negative pressure in the vessel by vacuum pump, thus sucking mud into the unit. The choice between horizontally- or vertically-mounted units are typically based on the footprint requirements of the specific rig.

Features and Advantages of APZCQ vacuum degasser

• Scientific reasonable design for the structure, it can get effective gas fluids separation, filter out impurities to guarantee vent pipe always clear.
• High efficiency/full vacuum.
• Corrugated, stacked leaves for increased surface area.
• Side access door for simplified maintenance.
• Compact design
• Adopt belt drive, avoid the complication of the reducing gear, ensure the long working time without trouble.
• The water circle type of vacuum pump is always at a constant temperature, applies to pump the flammable and explosive.
• High degassing efficiency, up to 95%.
• There is a gas-water separator in vacuum degasser, which can avoid the gas and fluids are all removed together,and also can supply water for vacuum pump, saving water and environment-friendly.
