Outotec receives a major filtration technology order from Brazil
Outotec and the Brazilian mining company MMX Mineração e Metálicos S.A. have
signed a contract for the filter technology delivery to the expansion of the
Serra Azul iron ore processing facility in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The parties do
not disclose the contract value, but deliveries of this scope are typically
worth of some tens of millions of Euros.
Outotec's scope of delivery consists of 17 Outotec Larox® CC 144 capillary
action disc filters for filtering pelletizing feed slurries in iron ore
processing. Micro porous ceramic discs replace conventional filter cloth in
these advanced filters. Capillary action draws liquid through the pores, and
only a small vacuum pump is required, resulting in significantly reduced energy
consumption. The filters will be manufactured in Outotec's facilities in Finland
and delivered in two phases.
"This is our fourth recent large scale filter order. Outotec Larox® CC 144
filters are currently the largest in use in the industry and have proven their
unique advantages also in iron ore beneficiation. They significantly improve the
process and environmental performance of the plant", says Pertti Korhonen, CEO
of Outotec.
