Transferring tailings slurries

Best practice water management in tailings transfer

Reliable pumps for handling abrasive slurries

The transfer and handling of tailings poses significant challenges due to their highly abrasive and harsh chemical characteristics. High volumes of water used in tailing applications places further environmental and economic pressures on mining operations. 

Bredel peristaltic hose pumps are capable of transferring thickened slurries with concentrations of up to 80% solids. Our hose pumps use no mechanical seals, eliminating the need for seal flush water.

Reduce water use in tailings slurry transfer

Our hose pumps require no mechanical seal flush water, presenting a significant advantage over centrifugal pumps that can demand up to 72 litres of water, per minute. 

  • Tailings with solids content up to 80% are handled with ease
  • No mechanical seals, eliminating the need for seal flush water
  • Fully reversible to blow out suction and drain lines safely
  • Output unaffected by varying pressure, fluid viscosity or density
