The washing of aggregates is required for many markets and applications. Nowadays the finished product needs to meet specifications outlined by the ever stringent and demanding markets. Where dry screening was accepted in the past, washing and scrubbing are now required to produce a silt free product.

A typical rinsing set-up would be used when the material does not require scrubbing, only rinsing to remove small particles of silt and fines to produce a clean end product.

The scrubbing process is required when dry and other deleterious materials are present, the process of high speed scrubbing is an accepted method. Scrubbing works on the principle of working material against material to remove clay and other materials from stone before moving on to the next stage.

Water Management



It is critical that systems are selected appropriate to your specific materials, so the solution can be refined according to your specific requirements. This includes qualified sampling and testing to ensure complete peace of mind for performance and the ability to handle inevitable feed variations.



Intelligent automation is common throughout our equipment range and this is particularly relevant to water management systems. The majority of our systems include fully automated control and adjustment of the flocculent dose, according to the amount of suspended solids and settlement time required. This ensures maximum performance even with highly variable feed materials such as materials derived from recyclable sources to ensure optimum levels of flocculent dosing.


Our wide choice of thickener models and formats ensures you are offered the best solution for your individual needs, all with low operational cost and maximum dewatering in mind. Following the thickener you have a wide choice of filter presses, again depending upon your individual material characteristics and performance needs.
