Technology makes slurry pumping less of a drag
Australia's CSIRO has developed what it described as a water and energy efficient technology for reducing the problematic drag effect experienced in pipes during industrial pumping. The system has been implemented by Glencore's Minara Resources, and stouted as capable of saving companies millons of dollars each year. As CSIRO pointed out, almost all mineral processing plants need to transport slurry through pumps at various process steps. A thick slurry is prone to friction or a drag effect in the pipes, making it more energy and capital-intensive to pump, as well as susceptible to blockages.
