Recently, GN Solids Control achieved a new milestone in its international market expansion by successfully exporting 6 sets ofTBM slurry separation systems to South Korea. This shipment not only marks the brand’s in-depth penetration into the South Korean infrastructure construction market but also demonstrates its strong global competitiveness in the solids control equipment sector.

The exported slurry separation systems are specially customized for slurry balance TBM construction, covering high-efficiency processing capacities of 500m³/h and 750m³/h. As a core equipment in TBM tunnel construction, the systems are designed to effectively handle the slurry generated during tunneling, ensuring the smooth progress of the project and meeting the strict environmental and construction standards of South Korea.

Each set of the system is equipped with three core processing modules: coarse screen, desander and desilter, forming a complete "preliminary screening-core separation-fine purification" process chain. This scientific configuration enables efficient separation of solid particles from the slurry, effectively removing excavated impurities and recycling the purified slurry back to the circulation loop, which not only improves construction efficiency but also realizes eco-friendly resource reuse
Adhering to the modular design concept, the systems feature compact structure, convenient disassembly and assembly, and small floor space. This design not only facilitates transportation and on-site installation but also allows flexible combination according to project needs, greatly reducing the difficulty of construction deployment and later maintenance
With professional TBM slurry separation technology and strict quality control, the systems can provide stable and reliable separation guarantee for South Korean TBM projects, perfectly adapting to the diverse geological conditions and construction requirements of the region. South Korea’s infrastructure industry has stringent standards for equipment performance and reliability, and the selection of GN Solids Control’s products fully reflects the international recognition of the brand’s quality and technological strength.

projects. The shipment features a targeted configuration of 3 sets of GNMS-200C with a processing capacity of 200GPM and 1 set of GNMS-1500 with a high throughput of 1500GPM, perfectly meeting the client’s diverse on-site processing demands for different-scale trenchless operations.
projects. The shipment features a targeted configuration of 3 sets of GNMS-200C with a processing capacity of 200GPM and 1 set of GNMS-1500 with a high throughput of 1500GPM, perfectly meeting the client’s diverse on-site processing demands for different-scale trenchless operations.
All systems are equipped with GN’s efficient multi-stage solids separation core structure, ensuring superior drilling fluid purification efficiency. The shaker acts as the first-stage separation equipment, removing large-diameter drill cuttings for preliminary purification. The subsequent desander and desilter undertake secondary and tertiary separation, and both rely on the action of hydrocyclones to accurately remove medium and fine particle solids in drilling fluid, achieving deep purification and recycling of drilling fluid. With a compact structural design, the systems are highly adaptable to the space constraints of trenchless construction sites, enabling quick installation and operation.

This delivery marks another important step for GN in expanding its European trenchless market layout. As a leading manufacturer of solids control equipment, GN has long been providing customized mud recycling solutions for global HDD and pile projects, and offers one-stop services including on-site installation guidance and operation training while ensuring product quality. Going forward, GN will continue to focus on technological innovation, providing more reliable equipment support for the global trenchless drilling industry’s development.
