Cellular Concrete Solutions has developed an innovative foam product to transport solid materials, such as mine tailings or waste crusher sands, through a pipeline. The process provides a less expensive and environmentally safe alternative to traditional transport methods.
Traditional tailings transportation uses water as the transport medium. Foam technology involves the introduction of air bubbles to replace the water as the main transport medium. Mearl Transport is ideal for backfills that have limited access to water. When using foam as a transport agent, less energy is required to pump the material, so it is more cost effective than water.
