Parnaby Cyclones Ltd design  & supply a Skip Waste (fines) Washing Plant to Midland Reclamation and Waste Ltd.

Parnaby Cyclones Ltd have been in the business of supplying modular and mobile washing plants for more than 50 years.

The business was founded by Derek Parnaby in 1973 and is still family owned and operated to this day with three generations of the family actively involved with the business.

It is always a pleasure to meet and deal with other family owned and operated businesses such as Midland Reclamation and Waste Ltd, based in Stratford Upon Avon.

MRW is owned and operation by Mr Michael Williamson and his son Joe.

We started discussions with Michael quite a while back with a view to supplying a skip waste (fines) washing plant. Initially we were looking to supply a Density Cyclone Separator system with a closed-circuit effluent system including the Parnaby high-rate thickener / clarifier vessel and Parnaby multi roll belt press filter.

Plant initial design duty was to handle 15-20 tph of <15mm skip fines.

Michael’s remit was to keep the overall plant to a compact footprint.

Close to starting Michael’s project we discussed the option to incorporate a coarse material washer module to allow for handling up to 50mm particle size feed.

Design feed tonnage was increased to circa 25-30 TPH.

Prior to completing the final plant design Parnaby’s carried out test works to obtain the typical range of size gradings and inerts / organics content.

This is invaluable for ensuring the right capacity is designed with each section of the wash plant and wastewater treatment circuit.

MRW remit was to produce a:

• 10 x 40mm coarse fraction
• 4 x 10mm pea gravel
• <4mm sand

The plant was commissioned July of this year, and it is fair to say Michael and Joe are very pleased with the overall plant performance in terms of consistent throughput circa 30 TPH and cleanliness of products.

From Parnaby’s perspective we have been proud to supply this wash plan to MRW. Michael and Joe have been an absolute pleasure to work with and we wish them every success with their business.
