Metso Outotec has been awarded a major contract for the delivery of sustainable crushing, screening, and grinding technologies to Greenfield iron ore project in South America. The concentrator plant has a targeted production of premium pellet feed. The total value of the order is approximately EUR 45 million. The comminution circuit flowsheet developed for the new concentrator plant in cooperation with Metso Outotec represents the most sustainable technology currently available. Conventional horizontal mills have been replaced with the combination of HRCe high pressure grinding rolls and Vertimill grinding mills to achieve the best energy-efficiency with the lowest operating and life cycle costs.Metso Outotec’s scope of delivery consists of the engineering, manufacturing, and supply of SuperiorTM MKIII Primary Crusher, HP SeriesTM cone crushers, HRCe HPGR high pressure grinding rolls, vibrating feeders as well as banana, horizontal and dewatering screens and Vertimill grinding mills. In addition, Metso Outotec will provide installation and commissioning advisory services and wear and spare parts.By utilizing this flowsheet, the plant is expected to save 25% of installed power compared to a conventional HPGR/ball mill circuit and over 40% compared to a conventional SABC circuit.
