Exploring New Frontiers in Ore Filtration: Introducing the BRASFELT Pilot Plant
At the forefront of innovation in mineral filtration, BRASFELT presents one of its projects: the BRASFELT Pilot Plant.
Developed as a versatile and effective solution for pilot-scale filtration of iron ores, non-ferrous ores and other materials, this pilot plant represents a significant breakthrough in the field of filtration technology.
Using Vacuum Disc Filter technology, with a filter area of 40m², which allows to achieve production capacity of up to 120 tons per hour, the BRASFELT Pilot Plant offers a range of applications in mining. From its use in small scale plants to define solid-liquid separation processes to its application as a practical and compact solution for miners with lower demands, this pilot plant is truly versatile and effective.
An important milestone in this journey of innovation was its first deployment in one of the largest iron mining companies in Minas Gerais. During a period of 24 months, the BRASFELT Pilot Plant was leased and used for tests in the treatment of flotation tailings of iron ore, in order to define dry disposal processes (Dry Stacking). This pioneering experience has demonstrated not only the effectiveness of technology, but also its potential to transform industrial practices and collaborate on environmental sustainability.
BRASFELT is committed to continuing to drive innovations in ore filtration. With the BRASFELT Pilot Plant, we are prepared to lead the way towards a more efficient, sustainable and responsible future for the mining industry.
