Abstract
A continuous vacuum transport system and method transport cuttings from a filtration system to a collection location. The filtration system discharges cuttings into a discharge manifold. The cuttings travel though a vacuum conduit into a vacuum hub. A control system controls holding tanks in the vacuum hub to fill one of the holding tanks while emptying one of the holding tanks. The cuttings flow from the vacuum hub through a transport conduit to a discharge end. The discharge end feeds into the connection location.
