A mud recycler is a solids control device designed to filter and clean drilling fluid coming back from a drill bore. The main functions of drilling fluid are to provide hydrostatic pressure to prevent formation fluids from entering and to stabilize the bore, to keep the drill bit cool and clean, to carry drill cuttings back out to the surface, and to suspend the drill cuttings while drilling is paused or during the pullback process.

Normally, a solids control system consists of a mud tank with compartments for both incoming dirty and cleaned fluid, a shale shaker, a desander (depending upon the size of the unit), and a desilter.

The shale shaker separates larger solids approximately 400 micron and larger, the desander separates solids approximately 100 micron and larger, and the desilter separates solids approximately 40 micron and larger. After the fluid processes through the desilter and deposited into the clean tank, it can then be pumped to the mud pump to be pumped back downhole.
