In the rugged terrain of Western Australia’s mining sector, efficient systems are the linchpin of success…
Ensuring operations run smoothly and sustainably. And an efficient waste management system is no exception. Demanding solutions that optimise efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
These bunded waste storage tanks are designed to be a valuable component in our mining clients waste management system. Designed for portability, these tanks facilitate the efficient transportation of waste to a central treatment site eliminating the need for multiple waste treatment sites across the mine, streamlining operations and minimising environmental footprint.
One of the standout features for our client when it comes to these bunded raw waste storage tanks is that they are two tanks stacked atop of each other. By stacking the two tanks, the footprint of the tank is minimised, allowing for efficient use of space in often constrained mining environments.
Additionally, the tanks are equipped with heavy-duty steel frames, complete with fork lift pockets and lifting points, making them easily portable. This mobility enables our clients to seamlessly move the tanks to various locations around their site, showcasing their operational flexibility.
To contribute to environmental compliance the tanks are equipped with DN150 odor-eliminating atmospheric vents, minimising any odors from the site. To help ensure easy tank monitoring they are fitted with mechanical level gauges and 12v high-level alarms. These provide real-time alerts in case of any abnormalities, enhancing operational safety.
The storage tanks are bunded, so the tank is fully contained inside an additional tank and because of this, we did not want any pipework going through the bund wall. So the outlet of the tank is run through the roof with an internal dropper and foot valve. This design ensures that no pipework goes through the bund wall, eliminating the risk of leaks and ensuring the integrity of the containment system. Additionally, the infill line is located on the tank, allowing for easy filling from ground level. The inclusion of a non-return fitting on the infill line prevents splash back when disconnecting from the line, further enhancing safety and convenience.
Through innovative design, advanced safety features, and a commitment to sustainability, these tanks will help our clients mining operation to run more efficiently when it comes to waste management.
