Filtration
Most mining, refining and processing plants incorporate a number of filtration and separation stages which define process efficiency and economics:
Clarification or polishing of pregnant liquor by pressure filters eg in leach circuits;
Dewatering of flotation or precipitation products by vacuum or pressure filters;
Residue removal or tailings dewatering; GBL Process represents two specialised European based OEM’s for filtration and classification and is able to provide innovative technology to the Mining, Refining and Process industry in Australia:
