Democratic Republic of the Congo – A Copper-Cobalt Mining Project



Classification:

Floating platform



Water source - Floating platform - Water intake
  When water demand is high, multiple production processes are simultaneously activated, requiring large quantities of cooling water for machinery and equipment, return water from tailings ponds, wet ore dressing, domestic water for mining areas, and other industrial water uses. At such times, the entire water supply system faces significant pressure. To meet this urgent and substantial water demand, the pump units respond rapidly: their internal drive mechanisms increase their operating frequency, causing the impellers to spin at higher speeds, thereby boosting the pump flow rate. Additionally, more pump units can be activated simultaneously, doubling the overall water supply capacity. This ensures that sufficient water is delivered promptly and adequately to all water-use points, maintaining the smooth operation of both production and daily life.

Floating Platform – Low-Demand Mode

  When water demand is low—for example, when a factory suspends production and water-using equipment essentially stops operating—the overall water consumption of the entire supply system drops significantly. Under such circumstances, if the pumps continue to operate at high flow rates, not only will water resources be wasted, but energy consumption will also soar. Therefore, the pumps automatically adjust their operating conditions by reducing their frequency or decreasing the number of pump units in operation. As the flow rate diminishes, the resistance that the pumps must overcome to propel water also decreases. According to the pump’s performance characteristics, its head (or lift) will likewise decrease, enabling the pump to operate in a more energy-efficient and safer manner, thus adapting smoothly to the reduced water demand.

Considering the acidic environment of tailings ponds, Changsha Daoyuan provides special materials for over-flow components, and its pipeline system—including pumps and valves—guarantees a service life of over 15 years for the pump units.
