Baotou, China, is the largest city in Inner Mongolia and has a total population of well over two million who have been benefiting from a new, greener power station since mid-2018. To reduce this plant‘s environmental footprint by eliminating wastewater discharge, increasing water reuse, and facilitating the recovery of valuable by-products, the plant operators wanted to apply a zero liquid discharge (ZLD) approach their salt slurry dewatering - a crucial stage in the process.

Maximum versatility and efficiency in starch production thanks to a Metris addIQ control system. ANDRITZ provided a solution to dry multiple products at different machine settings. Essentially delivering one contact drum dryer with the function of multiple machines: One double drum dryer, two single drum dryers or one single drum dryer.

In 2009, arla foods in Videbaek, denmark, realized that their current methods of sludge dewatering were unsustainable. a sound financial and strategic decision was made by arla foods to invest in a better dewatering solution to handle the large volume of wastewater coming from the company’s milk and cheese production.

One of our customers is an international producer and marketer of highly functional collagen proteins for the food industry. In the production of animal proteins, the last process step consists of drying viscous material. Hence, the customer was looking for a solution that could turn a very pasty product into dried powder.

When it comes to clarification of wine, the overall challenge independent of the business size is always the same: to profitably filter and recover wine, with easy handling and minimal need of maintenance.

In the world-famous Italian town of Parma, the international technology Group ANDRITZ once again demonstrated its innovative strength and engineering skills. After only two years of preliminary work and numerous challenging tests, an exclusive framework agreement on the supply of centrifugal pumps was signed with FBR-ELPO, one of the most important producers of plants for tomato paste and fruit concentrate.

The Quebrada Blanca mine in northern Chile’s Tarapacá region near the Atacama Desert produces copper cathodes by processing in an SX/EW plant. In order to exploit the remaining copper resources in this deposit, this mine is now being expanded. The Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 (QB2) expansion project includes a 165-kilometer water supply pipeline from the company’s own port which includes a desalination plant too. With a complete, high-quality pumps and centrifuge program, ANDRITZ covers most of the processes in modern, smart desalination plants. In this case, the Quebrada Blanca Desal Plant will be equipped with 11 ANDRITZ process pumps and two centrifuges.

The Brantner Environment Group GmbH is a waste management company headquartered in Austria and operating in Central and Eastern Europe. It runs the first plant in Europe to use a special process in order

to improve the results of the recycling process by maximizing the recovery rate of valuable materials and minimizing/eliminating the amount of remaining waste.

Recyclers of post-consumer and postindustrial plastic materials rely heavily on decanter centrifuges. But the processing of shredded plastics into several fractions is not always a simple task. Excessive or varying feed rates can lead to regular blockages. And a blocked feeding system must then be stopped, flushed, and cleaned. All of which leads to significant production losses and additional manpower requirements.
