Slimline Manufacturing - Portable Enhanced Evaporators

Slimline Manufacturing specialises in the design and production of portable enhanced Turbomist evaporators and turnkey solutions for applications involving tailings ponds and heap leach pads in the mining sector. Turbomist portable enhanced evaporators are enhanced mechanical evaporation solutions to meet zero-discharge regulations using new or existing evaporation ponds.

Zero-discharge portable enhanced evaporators

Our simple-design portable enhanced evaporators use quality components, ensure low maintenance and low operating costs, and provide extreme durability in the harshest conditions.

Zero discharge is obtainable at much lower costs than previously possible using enhanced evaporation installed over existing pond structures or by engineering much smaller new evaporation ponds in upcoming projects.

Downsizing of lined ponds

Downsizing of lined ponds is a huge cost saving achievable with Turbomist portable enhanced evaporators, as this solution is far more efficient than stick evaporators, bubbler techniques, spray fields or snow makers which emulate our equipment.

It is equally adaptable to closure and reclamation or maintenance of freeboard on your existing pond.

Enhanced evaporation systems

Zero discharge of wastewater from evaporation ponds or plants can be achieved by use of our Turbomister's enhanced evaporation system. It is a superior alternative to misters, water cannons, snowmakers or spray field sticks.

Cost-effective evaporation systems

Slimline evaporators, with an average cost of two-tenths of $0.01/gal, have the lowest cost per gallon of any solution available to eliminate wastewater, and are available globally.

The Turbomist enhanced evaporation concept is designed to put 80gpm of wastewater 60ft in the air, with an average water droplet size of less than 100µm, which results in excellent efficiency.

The average cost to eliminating waste using our system is two-tenths of $0.01/gal, including maintenance, operation and amortisation of the capital cost.

Any volume can be managed by using multiple numbers of units. Climatic conditions allow for predictable efficiency estimates at your site, which will allow you to model your costs of using this solution to reach zero discharge.

Advantages of our evaporators

Every major mining company on the planet has proven our Turbomist enhanced evaporation solution is more effective and lower in cost than other alternatives.

You can safely stake your reputation on using this solution to reach zero discharge, like people before you have at Barrick, Newmont, FMI, Coeur, Kinross, Goldcorp, Mosaic and RioTinto. Please consider it for your next project.

Reasons why all major miners have purchased the Turbomist evaporator include:

• Designed for real-world, wet, hostile, corrosive conditions — the norm at most mine sites — units handle a ph range of 2-11 without any special upgrades
• High-efficiency hostile-duty motors available in all voltages worldwide (we have, to date, shipped via truck, sea and air to 15 countries and 40 states in the US)
• Scaling issues have been addressed by utilising a quick-change camlock system on the stainless-steel nozzle ring, which allows operators to utilise a spare nozzle ring while descaling the original
• Units will handle extremely high TDS and high salinity solutions
• We offer innovative drift-control techniques to control difficult drift issues, thus allowing evaporation of waste not possible in the past
• Turnkey solution: we make it easy by offering a complete package which is pre-assembled and tested at the factory
