A Thermomechanical Cuttings Cleaner (TCC) is a specialized piece of equipment used in the oil and gas industry, particularly in the drilling process. Its main function is to treat and clean drill cuttings — the rock fragments and materials that are excavated during the drilling of wells. The TCC utilizes a combination of thermal and mechanical processes to remove hydrocarbons and other contaminants from the cuttings, thus ensuring that the waste materials are disposed of more sustainably and reducing environmental impact.
