Industrial waste treatment plant MaxR®

Lowered costs Improved purification Reduced environmental impact The MaxR System is the key to getting the best results out of your treatment processes. Our unique system uses fewer chemicals while producing better results. Between pulling them out of the ground, and using them for a variety of commercial applications, the valuable metals that your mining business produces need to go through several stages of treatment. These processes improve metal purity and help eliminate waste materials, for a product that can meet the high standards expected in the mining industry. Traditionally, these processes involve the addition of chemical reagents into the process stream to drive precipitation and form solids. Solids precipitated in this manner form very finely divided particles which settle slowly, forming a low density sludge that is difficult to dewater. The MaxR® System solves this problem, by incorporating recycled thickener underflow to serve as precipitation sites for fresh solids. The underflow solids mix with the incoming feed. This allows for a process that requires fewer chemicals. The newly precipitated solids attach to and grow on the existing particles, creating larger crystals of increased density. The ultimate discharge slurry density of a material (solids concentration) can be increased by 5-30 wt% over conventional treatment. This higher density (and by extension, the improved dewatering characteristics of the solids) also creates a system by which the dewatering rate is significantly increased. This means less dewatering equipment is required, saving your business on related equipment costs.
