The Finlay 150E Siltmaster system
has been designed, using the latest advancements in flocculent technology
to remove silt from waste water which is produced as a result of sand
washing. The silt or waste fines is typically 0 to 150 micron.
Previously this silt was allowed to flow with the waste water to large
settling ponds where it could gravitate out. The silt was then
dredged using drag lines, etc. every few weeks. This method in many
cases has proved to be inefficient and results in material handling
problems with high labour costs. The Finlay Siltmaster with the aid
of a flocculent now allows for the continuous removal of this silt from
the waste water. Benefits of the system are: No settling ponds, Less
fresh water consumption, Eliminates risk of environmental damage due to
silt contamination, Gives a more compact plant, Eliminates the use of
draglines, Lower investment and running costs than comparable
systems. |
