A leading European mining company

operating in the DRC has awarded Roytec a

contract for the supply of 4 x 145 m

Roytec

TXSY vacuum belt filters. This contract

follows an earlier success where Roytec

was awarded a contract for the supply of

2 x 145 m

2

vacuum belt filters for a new

phosphate mine in the Western Cape.

The DRC contract is for copper recovery

after tank leaching and employs a 3-stage

counter-current cake washing system for

optimum efficiency. The filters are being

constructed in a combination of 316 stain-

less steel and mild steel sections and were

ready for shop trial assembly eight weeks

after contract signature.

Roytec carried out site testwork and

completed the process specification in con-

junction with the client’s engineers, and a

unique dual feed system allowing for a pre-

coat of coarse material before the addition

of flocculated fines has been specified.

The filters will be manufactured by

Roytec’s partner, Nuclear Industries Yantai
