Critical challenges when developing filtration plants

Implementing a filtration process is a key challenge, from flowsheet selection to ramp-up and promised capacity. Alongside financial aspects, miners must also evaluate executional and operational factors while selecting the most feasible solution.

  • How to deliver an accurate CAPEX & OPEX filtration trade-off
  • How to operate safely and efficiently, while maximizing uptime
  • How to manage on-time and on-budget project execution given multiple stakeholders and relatively large investments
  • How to obtain an integral service package as capabilities are widely scattered in the industry, without a single partner

Metso is your preferred partner to provide expert support throughout the entire filtration journey.
