Full Scale Pilot Test: Drill Cuttings Remediation
Midwest Soil Remediation is currently conducting a full-scale pilot demonstrating the effectiveness of utilizing Low Temperature Thermal Desorption for the treatment of drill cuttings.
Operating in the Piceance Basin of Western Colorado, Midwest Soil Remediation is using its 525D thermal desorber to process drill cuttings impacted with petroleum hydrocarbons from the development of natural gas production wells.
While utilizing natural gas produced on site to fuel the thermal desorber and electrical generator, contaminant concentrations are being sucessfully reduced to levels meeting the requirements of Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission Table 910.1.
The 525D thermal desorber is comprised of two interconnected portable trailers, and is processing drill cuttings at approximately 18 tons per hour. A third trailer has been mobilized to provide office space and house supplies due to the remote location of the project.
