November 19, 2024 (Metso release) — Metso is launching Water Treatment Skids (WTS) for efficient and reliable water treatment in industrial settings, such as mining, metallurgical and chemical processing. Water Treatment Skids, which are part of the Metso Plus offering, use centrifugal separation and self-cleaning filtration to remove particles and solids. With automated controls and a compact, modular design, these skids provide plug-and-play installation with essential connections.
“The primary reason for developing Water Treatment Skids was to address the need for efficient water treatment solutions in industrial settings. WTS are primarily used to treat thickener overflow from solids and efficiently meet the clean water supply needs in thickening and dewatering areas, such as sealing water for pumps, chemical dilution and filter wash waters,” says Artem Makarov, Product Manager for Industrial Water Treatment Plants at Metso.
Water Treatment Skids are designed to meet the key objectives that our customers value most. They offer comprehensive functionalities, user-friendly operation and minimal maintenance downtime. In addition, WTS deliver improved and consistent water quality, increase process efficiency, and offer scalability and flexibility to grow with the customer’s needs. With streamlined and compact installation, this solution helps conserve valuable resources by promoting internal water reuse in the plants,” adds Makarov.
In minerals processing, Water Treatment Skids are an efficient alternative to discharging the thickener overflow to a pond and reclaiming it from there. WTS can also be installed in other industrial process water streams, such as cleaning and other areas of the plants, to enable safe and beneficial water reuse.
