How Desen’s Modular Screening Plant Boosts Mine Tailings Recycling Efficiency
Mine tailings—accumulated waste from ore processing—occupy large land areas and leach heavy metals into soil and groundwater, making them a top environmental concern for mining regions. Traditional tailings treatment relies on fixed screening facilities, which are costly to build and unable to ada
Mine tailings—accumulated waste from ore processing—occupy large land areas and leach heavy metals into soil and groundwater, making them a top environmental concern for mining regions. Traditional tailings treatment relies on fixed screening facilities, which are costly to build and unable to adapt to the scattered, rugged terrain of mines.
Desen’s modular mobile screening plant addresses this by offering crawler or tire-mounted designs, enabling it to navigate muddy, uneven mine sites. Its multi-stage vibrating screen system (with replaceable mesh) separates usable ore particles from toxic tailings with 80%+ recovery rates. In a southern China non-ferrous metal mine project, the plant processed 20,000 cubic meters of tailings in 20 days, recovering iron and copper ores that were later sold to local smelters, while the remaining harmless residue was used for roadbed filling.
