In the mining industry, polymer makedown equipment is used in several applications, such as solid-liquid separation, water treatment, dust control, and more.  SNF offers custom-designed equipment to fit the needs of each customer application.

Units can be designed to include a patented Polymer Slicing Unit (PSU) or other polymer wetting systems and can be configured to handle dry, emulsion, or liquid polymers. SNF offers a mobile dry makedown system for large-scale field trials without the need to install permanent units to customer processes. All programming, instrumentation, installation, commissioning, and training on our makedown equipment can be managed by our knowledgeable technical service staff.

Specialized polymer pumps play a critical role in mining applications, ensuring the precise and efficient delivery of polymer solutions to various process points. SNF offers a wide range of pump sizes and capabilities to accurately control flow rates and concentrations, allowing for optimal performance of polymers in applications such as solid-liquid separation, water treatment, and dust control. By utilizing specialized polymer pumps, mining operations can enhance process efficiency, reduce waste, and minimize environmental impacts.

Polymer system dosing controls and application automation devices are essential components in mining applications, providing precise regulation of polymer delivery and ensuring optimal performance. These controls and devices help maintain accurate flow rates and concentrations of polymer solutions for processes such as solid-liquid separation, water treatment, and dust control. By implementing advanced dosing controls and automation, mining operations can achieve increased efficiency, reduced waste, and enhanced sustainability.

Polymer inventory management and tank level monitoring systems play a crucial role in mining applications, ensuring the efficient use and replenishment of polymer-based products. These systems provide real-time data on polymer stock levels and consumption rates, allowing for timely reordering and optimal utilization. By implementing effective inventory management and monitoring systems, mining operations can minimize downtime, reduce waste, and enhance overall process efficiency.
