The service offering includes:

  • flocculant dosage optimisation through dosage control equipment

  • flocculant inventory monitoring remotely by telemetrics for in-time deliveries

  • bulk flocculant deliveries by pneumo dispatcher with no physical handling

  • periodic settling tests and flocculant screenings

 

The equipment we provide optimises reagent make-up, removes the need to handle the product on-site, negates the requirement for warehousing and removes costs associated with the disposal of packaging materials such as bulk bags, shrink wrapping and pallets.

This full service model is enabled by environmentally responsible investments in expertise, processes and products as AECI Mining Chemicals’ product range continues to lead the way in meeting the increasingly complex needs of mines throughout the world.
