Mining & Mineral Processing
Innovative chemistry for solid-liquid separation and tailings management
SciDev is at the forefront of innovative solutions for solid-liquid separation in the mining and mineral processing industries. Our advanced chemistries and expert services are designed to optimize operational efficiency, enhance water recovery, and reduce waste in the tailings circuit.
Improving efficiency in mining and mineral processing
Each solution is customized to address the unique challenges of the client’s site conditions and final application stage. We offer both a conventional range of flocculants, being MaxiFlox® 500 series (non-ionic to anionic) and MaxiFlox® 800 series (cationic) and also an advanced range through our MaxiFlox® 500R series.
The innovative advanced range provides novel solutions for challenges relating to the recovery of water, recovery of minerals and metals, and overall process optimisation to lower operational treatment costs.
MaxiFlox® Flocculants and Coagulants
Our MaxiFlox® range of flocculants are versatile and suitable for various applications in mining, mineral processing, construction, and water treatment. They are offered in both powder and liquid form, with a wide range of molecular weights, charge distributions, and charge densities.
In thickeners the products are used to enhance settlings rates, increase underflow density and improve supernatant clarity. For dewatering and filtrations processes they increase productivity and yields and reduce moisture content producing a lower volume of waste for disposal.
