TH will supply a new filtration plant in Bolivia

LandSilver mining company has selected TH to implement a new filtration plant in Bolivia. The process plant will treat the polymetallic tailings generated at LandSilver´s Porco and Cerro Rico mines. 

TH will design, manufacture, and implement all the filtration equipment, such as an APN-20SL filter press, slurry pump and additional items. The filter press will be equipped with polypropylene plates, 40 filtration chambers, which could be upgrade up to 70, and a filter cloth washing system. Its design is based on mechanical simplicity and robustness to ease equipment´s operation and maintenance. The filter press will also include a filter effluent turbidity monitoring system to detect any detect wear or tears in filter cloths.

To optimise the filtration process, the equipment will incorporate a core-blow system that cleans the feeding manifold at the end of each filtration cycle. The filter press will be fully automatic, thanks to a PLC installed in its central control cabinet, and will be fed by a centrifugal pump.

TH has over 50 years of experience in solutions for the mining industry and currently works with some of the world’s leading mining companies. Its solutions and equipment have been implemented successfully all over the world.
