Orica Australia Pty. Ltd. chooses RHEWUM

22.08.2012, New South Wales

N.N., RHEWUM GmbH

The location of the ammonium nitrate production for the "Project Trident" is Newcastle in NSW (New South Wales) Australia.

After the RHEWUM GmbH already received a contract for the design, construction and delivery of a screener for ammonium nitrate to Australia in March 2011, this year in May a similar project was recorded, also in Australia. The scope of supply is a screening machine with direct excitation of screen cloths type RHEmoto^® size 150x269/3. The machine will be used for screening of prilled ammonium nitrate. The feed rate will be  50 t/h (55 STPH), and the separating cuts are 2.8 mm (0.110'' / approx. 7 mesh) and 1.0 mm (0.039'' / 18 mesh). The middle of the three decks will serve as a de-loading deck with a de-loading cut of 1.8 mm (0.071'' / approx. 12 mesh). While coarse and fine material are being lead back into the process, the on-size product will be stored temporarily in the western part of the country for distribution to the Australian mining industry. The order was placed by Orica Australia Pty Ltd., who is also the system operator. The advertisement, planning and construction will be carried out by Worley Parsons Pty Ltd. with its head office in Melbourne. The screening machine type RHEmoto^® 150x269/3 will be delivered in early December 2012.
