Frac sand is a form of proppant for the fracking process used in the oil and gas industry. The proppant’s basic function is to create and maintain the deep-underground passageways needed to harvest either natural gas or crude oil. The product can be in the form of ceramic beads, resin-coated sand and natural sand frac sand.
Frac Sand Plants are designed to remove silt/clay impurities, as well as size and dewater sand before drying, sizing and blending it into final products. These plants are specially engineered to meet each producer’s needs based on the individual characteristics of the deposit. Frac sand mining occurs in a variety of locations, and the differences in the deposits vary in gradation, clays and clay/silt content, and other physical characteristics. In order to manage these natural variations, it is necessary that a plant is designed with your site’s deposit in mind.
