Rössing Mine's acid-production plant, supplied by BATEMAN in 1974 and upgraded in 1985.

 

Sulphuric Acid Plants

Bateman Engineering designs sulphuric plants based on sulfur-burning as well as pyrite roasting systems

Bateman Engineering's plants comply with international environmental regulations.

Bateman Engineering has a licence agreement with NORAM Engineering Ltd of Canada to provide state-of-the-art, but well-proven technology in:

  • the design and construction of new acid-production facilities;

  • audit services to existing facilities with a view to improve plant throughput;

  • retrofitting new equipment into existing facilities; and
    combining acid production with downstream value-adding facilities, e.g. ammonium-sulfate production.

  • a full range of proprietory equipment.

Bateman Engineering's acid-plant track record goes back some 30 years with the construction of the 600 t/day acid-production plant at the Rössing Uranium mine in Namibia.

An EP contract, valued at approximately US$1000m, is currently underway for Dynatec Madagascar SA, for Ambatovy Nickel, to provide a 5,500 t/day sulphuric acid plant.

Additional assurance is provided by Bateman Engineering 's extensive international experience in both greenfield and brownfield project execution in the process industry.
