Automated Self-Cleaning Filtration of Flowback and Produced Water

We are happy that our efforts in the US market are paying off. Together with our US partner, Encotech ltd. we have compiled a case study for Flowback and Produced Water. Below is a sample from the case.

A piloted trial was recently completed at a BNN/Tallgrass energy facility in the Denver Julesberg basin in Wyoming. This facility takes trucks around the clock from flow-back, drilling and produced water in the region and evaporates as well as injects it into a salt water disposal well. Over the course of the 3 day trial, a 0.5 micron element was utilized as the water was expected to have very fine particles. The operational flow was stable between 2 and 3 bbl/min with optimized flow closer to 3 bbl/min for a single 1.2 m2 filter. Since many different trucks were offloading to tanks directly connected to the filter apparatus, the quality varied and thus detailed, aggregate analytical was not pursued; instead, filtration efficiencies and performance were the goal of the project.
