Veolia delivers brackish water treatment plant for Mauritanian mine

Veolia supplied 22 skid-mounted pumps, ranging from vertical centrifugal and centrifugal end suction pumps, to high pressure sleeved pumps. The plant is also equipped with an air compressor set. The two chillers, each with a plate heat exchanger, were purposely sourced from a supplier, who is experienced in dealing with high ambient temperatures and similar harsh operating conditions.

Other equipment supplied by Veolia includes five chemical dosing stations, a 100 cubic metre filtered water tank, and three large multimedia filters. For ease of transportation and installation, the pump sets, heat exchangers, dosing stations and air compressors are all provided in pre-fabricated skid frames.

The plant is due to be commissioned towards the start of 2013.
