For those in the bored piling or pipe jacking industry, we would be familiar with the truckloads of drilling mud produced daily. Depending on the volume of excavated mud, disposal costs can sometimes range between $1,000 to $3,000 per day.
In the next 20 years, infrastructure development will continue to be a key area of investment by the government. It would be worth taking a closer look at how managing your own slurry can help to maximise work efficiency and reduce operating costs in the long run.
A typical slurry management system consists of a Desander and a Decanter Centrifuge, which work together in creating a sustainable cycle of slurry and clarified water onsite. This means that apart from reduced costs from having less slurry to dispose, we will also enjoy savings from less transportation of clean water to site. Depending on the treatment rate of the system, you will be able to save up to 60% in operating costs. Learn more about the role of Decanter Centrifuge in slurry management.
JK&T offers a wide range of slurry management systems, some of which are fully operational at LTA and PUB project sites.
