Processing Plant

Overview

Processing plants in remote or deep mines often struggle with unreliable power delivery, requiring scalable microgrids due to off-grid locations and high energy demands for crushing and milling. Insufficient power leads to increases in downtime, escalating operational costs for the mine.

Safety and maintenance are also top concerns for mine processing plants with dust, chemicals, and poor ventilation, alongside corrosion and clogging of equipment which halts production. Water management further adds to this operational strain with separation and tailings management playing a crucial role during the final stages of processing. Efficient processes for acid mine drainage are also critical to comply with safety and environmental regulations.
