Flocculant plant for a tails thickener
In mineral processing plants, tails thickeners are normally used to recover very good quality process water and sending the sludge to the tailing’s dams.The client added a tails thickener to their process for which a “Flocculant Plant” was required to ensure...
Efficient sedimentation in a neutral leaching process
The client needed improving clarification in their thickeners for neutral leaching.The super high molecular weight anionic reagent did not provide the required results.
Preventive Maintenance
ASFIN INTERNACIONAL has Flocculant Preparation Equipment (EPF) installed in different mineral benefit plants in Mexico. It is important to carry out preventive maintenance on this equipment in order to guarantee its correct and continuous operation.
Flake soda preparation equipment
The client required to neutralize the acid gases emitted into the atmosphere.To do this, it was necessary to wash them with an alkaline solution with a minimum pH of 8.0 to neutralize them.
Mineral Processing Plants
In mineral beneficiation plants, the pulp obtained from the flotation process is sent to thickener tanks for solid-liquid separation. It is important that these operate optimally.
Leaching Plants for the Extraction of Au and Ag
In leaching plants for Au and Ag extraction, oxides are processed. It is critical that the downstream scrubbers operate optimally, so that scrubber No. 1 has as few solids as possible.
High Sucrose Losses in the Sludge (CACHAZA)
The sugar cane mill had high sucrose losses in the sludge (cachaza), starting the harvest with values of 0.127 % with 3.50 % Pol.The flocculant preparation was observed to be correct at a concentration of 0.10 %. The dosage of the...
Juice Clarification Process
The sugar mill had problems in its juice clarification process, such as the presence of sludge in the clarified juice (overflow) and extraction of sludge (cachaza) with a high presence of juice (very little compaction). As a consequence, the plant had...
