Drilling & Mining Polymer

Super absorbent polymer (SAP) based products play a key role in the development of oil and gas by allowing drilling crews to rapidly solidify drilling fluid waste (drilling mud and drill cuttings) as it is generated.


SOCO® drilling polymers can be Drilling Fluid/Drilling Mud Additive, which is suitable for plumb shaft, horizontal well, deep shaft, etc. When compared to commodity absorbents and cement products, SOCO® Polymer' s superior liquid absorbency and retention help oil and gas companies minimize waste disposal costs, treatment time and environmental impact.

SOCO® Polymer Drilling Fluid for Stabilization & Recovery

Are you concerned about toxic waste water or sludges from your mining operations? SOCO® Polymer can solidify and stabilize the remaining sludges and slurries for safe and environmentally-friendly disposal.


Mining operations can generate several different types of waste streams:


• Sump pits

• Tailings

• Coal ash pits

• Wash slime waste

• Minerals refinement fractions


Often these waste streams need solidification and binding of free liquids in order to be transported to a licensed disposal facility. Conventional sorbents – sawdust, lime kiln dust, corn cob – normally expands the waste volume by 50-100%. This greatly increases disposal costs in terms of higher transportation costs due to more loads and, of course, higher landfill disposal fees. The use of SOCO® biopolymer drilling fluid allows waste generators to meet EPA 9095 (Paint Filter Test) requirements with <1% expansion!


Advantages

Faster & Larger Absorption.

Harmless & Eco-friendly.

The drilling fluid polymer Will Not Release Free Liquids.

Increases in Efficiency Can Be Easily Proven in Your Own Labs.

Strong Ion Exchange Capability Allows For An Opportunity to Tie Up

Reduces Industrial Waste Disposal Costs – Expands in Volume by Less Than 1%.
