ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A drilling mud degasser apparatus which has only a single moving part, namely, a unitary, hollow body rotatable within an open bottom casing, and a suction blower connected to the interior of the rotor body. The casing and rotor are submerged in a pond of mud returned from a well or connected in a return mud line such that gas-cut mud entering the bottom of the rotor body is centrifugally thrown outwardly to cause the liquid and/or sand components to travel up the out- wardly inclined wall of the rotor body and be discharged through outlet openings at the top of the body wall. Con- currently, released gases are drawn through a central tube into the impeller and thence discharged. Differential discharge of sand and liquid components may be provided as may a flotation collar for insuring uniform submersion of the casing beneath the liquid level.
