Weir Minerals Hydrocyclones deliver efficient engineering excellence

24 October 2011 by Weir Minerals

Established in 1995, MAL is a major European bauxite, alumina and aluminium processing company with its largest operations in Hungary.

Bauxite is extracted from mines in Hungary and Serbia is converted to alumina at the specialist plant in Ajka, Hungary, which produces 300,000 tonnes of alumina per annum.

Weir Minerals became involved with MAL through the installation of Warman 6/4 pumps in the original processing system that transported material directly from the mill. Although performance of the pumps was good, engineers from Weir Minerals recommended
the introduction of two Cavex 500CVX Hydrocyclones to provide greater efficiency, which were subsequently installed in August 2010.
