Solvent Extraction Plants (SX)

“

Proven SX plants with a pumper-mixer that draws less than 10% of the power of a conventional unit.

Features available from METZIX Solvent Extraction Plants (SX):

FeatureDescription
Proven processThe MC Process has proven results
Low-power pumper-mixerThe SX pumper-mixer impeller draws less than 10% of the power of a conventional unit, offering the same flow and head
Less crud formationLess energy is consumed, which reduces emulsion or crud formation
Stronger tanksThe construction of the pumping and settling tanks is far stronger and superior
Vacuum-infused mouldingTanks are manufactured by a vacuum-infused moulding technique
Total GRP composite constructionContamination risks inherent in fibreglass-coated steel are removed
