Since 2012, more than 5 billion gallons of water have been saved by McLanahan Filter Presses throughout North America. One of the most widely used pieces of equipment in liquid-solid separation, the Filter Press provides the ability to recover clean water to be used in other parts of your operation. Whether you need to eliminate your pond, meet environmental restrictions or limit water usage, the McLanahan Filter Press is the solution for your site.
Aggregate and minerals processing producers typically send the fine material waste from their wet processing plant to settling ponds or tailings dams, which provide a space for the solid material to settle and allow the recovery of reusable water.
Usually, these ponds are difficult and costly to manage in terms of maintenance, since full ponds require the periodic removal of material. Permitting new ponds to hold the additional fine material waste can be a challenge as well. Ponds can also take up quite a bit of valuable land space, potentially covering up mineable reserves.
McLanahan Filter Presses provide many benefits to aggregate producers who want to manage their waste material more efficiently and effectively. They separate solids and liquids in slurries to create dry, stackable material and recover process water that can be reused in the wet plant.
