METC - Metallurgical Engineering Technology & Construction

METALLURGICAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY & CONSTRUCTION We are multidisciplinary process engineers, mechanical engineers electrical engineers, civil and structural engineers and project managers. METC design and build metallurgical process plants. We can start projects from the ground up starting with scoping studies, PFS and DFS studies moving through detailed engineering and project execution. We are very responsive team with years of experience able to execute EPCM projects and complete preliminary and detailed engineering design as part of project teams. We have been members of both the owners and contractor teams and have managed EPCM and EPC fixed price projects. Through the design and successful commissioning of these plants, METC has developed excellent process knowledge in the following fields: Material flow and material handling Crushing - Tooth Roll, jaw, gyratory, HPGR Comminution - FAG, SAG, Ball, Verti, ultra-fine milling Heap Leaching Flotation Agitation Leaching Solvent Extraction Gravity Recovery- Spirals, centrifugal concentrators, DMS/HMS Elution Electrowinning (gold and copper) Dewatering - Thickening/Cyclones, Filtration Sorters -X-ray, optical Detoxification (Cyanide) Smelting METC always utilises innovative approaches to increase speed of construction, reduce capital cost and improve efficiency This includes: Use of Reinforced earthen walls Use of Segmented tanks Modularisation of plant Use of right sized equipment Skid mounted designs. Minimisation of drop heights to reduce plant footprints, cost, energy consumption Use 4D modeling to integrate the schedule with the 3D model to confirm the integrity of the construction schedule Use of integrated design databases Extensive cost database from where lower order costs can be extracted Contact us at info@metcengineering.com
