Deep Sea Mining System and Riser Thereof
A riser 20 for a deep-sea mining system. The riser 20 comprises a lower end and an upper end. The riser further comprises at least one up pipe 21 for containing a slurry mixture of mined material and carrier water pumped up from the lower end of the riser to a water separation mechanism 14 disposed on a surface vessel 15 and being configured to separate the mined material and the carrier water; at least one top-up pipe 22, fig 2 for containing top-up water pumped up from the lower end of the riser to the surface vessel 15; and at least one down pipe 23, fig 2 for containing the carrier water and the top-up water pumped down from the surface vessel 15 to the lower end of the riser.
