WSHT High-Efficiency Thickener (NZ Series)

Capacity: 5-1600 TPH

The WSHT NZ Series High-Efficiency Thickener is designed for dewatering and concentration of mineral slurries and tailings in beneficiation plants. Featuring a deep cone design, advanced flocculant dosing system, and automatic rake lifting mechanism, the NZ series achieves high underflow density with clear overflow quality. It is extensively used in gold CIL/CIP plants, copper concentrators, iron ore processing, and tailings management systems to recover process water and produce dense pumpable underflow.

WSHT High-Efficiency Thickener (NZ Series)

Capacity: 5-1600 TPH | Precision Engineered for Mining & Mineral Processing

Product Overview

The WSHT NZ Series High-Efficiency Thickener is designed for dewatering and concentration of mineral slurries and tailings in beneficiation plants. Featuring a deep cone design, advanced flocculant dosing system, and automatic rake lifting mechanism, the NZ series achieves high underflow density with clear overflow quality. It is extensively used in gold CIL/CIP plants, copper concentrators, iron ore processing, and tailings management systems to recover process water and produce dense pumpable underflow.

Key Features & Benefits

  • High Underflow Density
    Deep cone design and optimized settling zone achieve underflow density up to 60-70% solids by weight.
  • Automatic Rake Lifting
    Hydraulic or electric rake lifting mechanism prevents overload and damage from excessive sediment accumulation.
  • Flocculant Dosing System
    Integrated polymer flocculant dosing enhances settling rate and overflow clarity for water recovery.
  • Low Energy Consumption
    Low-speed rake drive with minimal power requirement (as low as 1.1KW for smaller units).
  • Corrosion Resistant
    Heavy-duty steel construction with protective coating systems for corrosive slurry environments.

Technical Specifications

Available Models: NZ-3.6, NZ-6, NZ-9, NZ-12, NZ-15, NZ-18, NZ-20, NZ-25, NZ-30, NZ-40, NZ-50

Key Parameters: Tank diameter: 3.6-50m | Sedimentation area: 10-1963m² | Power: 1.1-11KW

Working Principle

The thickener operates on the principle of gravitational sedimentation. Feed slurry enters through the feedwell at the center of the thickener, where flocculant is mixed to promote particle agglomeration. As the slurry moves outward and downward, solid particles settle to the bottom under gravity, forming a compact sediment layer. The rotating rake mechanism slowly moves the settled solids toward the central discharge outlet. Clear liquid overflows into the launder at the periphery for recovery and reuse. The underflow is discharged continuously or intermittently through a positive displacement pump.

Applications

  • Gold CIL/CIP Plants
    Tailings thickening, pregnant solution clarification, and CCD washing circuits.
  • Copper Concentrators
    Concentrate thickening, tailings dewatering, and process water recovery in flotation plants.
  • Iron Ore Processing
    Concentrate dewatering ahead of filtration, tailings management, and water recycling.
  • Coal Washing
    Fine coal slurry thickening and process water recovery in coal preparation plants.
