Thank you all very much, especially micalbrch.
Yes, I concluded the heat tracing is a must. The project is in Kyrgyz Republic (one of the former comunist country); the power failure is very likely to happen and to last; yes, we will flash the tailings immediately, but in that part of the world...
Hello everyone,
We design a piping trasportation system for the TSF (Tailings Storage Facility).
Slurry : Gold Slurry Rougher Tails
Liquid: process water
Slurry temp: 5-20C
Design flow rate: 511 m3/hour
% solids: 32%
SG slurry: 1.25
Slurry velocity: 2.36 m/s
We will use 315mm OD, HDPE PN10...
thank you micalbrch; very useful even general.
MORE INFO FOR EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO HELP:
Our iron ore is similar to the brazilian iron ore, lots of fines. I wanted to know if there is somebody out there involved in iron ore project and knows about specific/particular issues when handling iron...
will someone be eager to share with me specific issues in piping used for iron ore processing? some lesson learnt will be useful; I need it in couple of days; thank you all
Has anyone used Pug Mills for bauxite grinding?
If you used them for different application then bauxite, I am still interested in your comments on the reliability, availability and pricing of this equipment if possible.
Thank you!
This is a nickel recovery project. The ore is nickel laterite. We want to build a heap leach pad with the ore coming from agglomeration. We ended up with the conclusion that we need 8 pads of 130Wx300Lx8H meters.
Presently we try to build the first pad and we estimated that we need a stacker, an...

Thank you all for your input.
I am in Montreal, Canada and the pipe we are looking for is 24" CS STD.Wt. pipe / A106 B, is a steam line to be run on over 3.5 Km..
Have a nice week-end everyone,
Could someone confirm that 60 foot length is a common fabricated length these days for 24" dia CS welded pipe.
If YES, any manufacturer name available?
Thank you in advance.
JStephen and MikeHalloran,
I confirm that this is FRP pipe with 24"dia, that could be used in continuous service under 350 deg.F for flue gas. I do not know how other medium could be handled.
The manufacturer is in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Thank you for your input.
Dear DSB123,
I do not perform the analysis.
Even though, I will fully appreciate an answer that helps me learning something.
I expected at least to be guided where to learn from, not to be advised to give up.
Thank you anyway for your time.
This is flue gas at 177 degC(approx. 350 deg F)under 69 kPa (10 psi) pressure transported through 24" dia FRP pipe.
As mention previously I will appreciate your help if anybody has any experience with the expension joints preferred over the bell/spigot (O-ring) connections or viceversa?
Thank you!
We perform stress anlysis for a 24" dia steam pipe, running on over 3.5 km. We design a number of expansion loops and considered an anchor on each side of the loop (loop is between two anchors). The pipe passed in Cesar, but our structural engineer tells us that his structure cannot take any...
