- one or more SCRUBBING UNIT composed by a log washer or barrel washer
- one or more SCREENING UNIT composed by an inclined or horizontal vibrating screen
WHICH TYPES OF SAND CAN BE WASHED?
Our sand washing units consist on modular elements to adadt to the site requirements and the materials to treat: natural sand, crushed sand, glass sand , moulding sand and other minerals.
Different modular elements based on your requirements and analysis carried out by our own laboratory:
- SANDTEC is the standard sand washing unit (composed by tank + pumping group + hydrocyclone of diameter from Ø200 to Ø1000 + dewatering screen)
- ATTRITEC to remove contaminants from the sand surface
- PRE-WASHING SYSTEM to remove light impurities by gravity
