Cover Story
Quick setup
Because modules arrive in individualized containers, they are quick to set up and easy to move around for different configurations. This also makes them easy to transport to other sites. Assembling each module is simple and takes less than a day to get the whole plant up and running.
McLanahan has carefully thought of all the details and features that will make maintenance and efficiency easier – including two truly unique features. The Eze-Riser allows the operator to cut pump maintenance time in half, and the Fines Forward Slide and Aggregate Discharge Hood are included to increase your efficiency.
Modular Plant For All Your Needs
UltraSAND Modular Sand Plants:
With the greater separation efficiency of Hydrocyclones/SeparatorsTM, the UltraSAND is proven to provide a higher product yield compared to stand alone processing equipment. Producers can achieve a much lower moisture content from the Dewatering Screen, depending on the characteristics of the sand.
UltraSCRUB Modular Scrubbing Plants
Capable of removing water soluble materials from the toughest of clays, McLanahan UltraSCRUB Modular Scrubbing Systems provide a flexible washing option for aggregate feeds. Arriving on-site in containerized modules, producers will benefit from the shorter lead times, quick set-up and ease of transportation offered by the UltraSCRUB.
UltraFINES Modular Fines Recovery Plants
UltraFINES Modular Fines Recovery Plants are a combination of a Sump, Pump, Hydrocyclones and a Dewatering Screen in a module that is specifically designed to recover fine solids from a wash plant effluent stream. The recovered material is conveyable and stackable, and is suitable for multiple industries, including sand, iron ore, coal recovery, ash, industrial sands, frac sand and more. UltraFINES modular plants recover fine solids to produce a standalone product and reduce the amount of solids reporting to the settling pond or downstream equipment.
UltraDRY Modular Dewatering Screens
The UltraDRY Modular Dewatering Screen has a quick set-up that can be easily added onto any new or existing equipment. The slow travel speeds of material through the Dewatering Screen allow for longer sand retention, which generate better drying time for a consistently dry product.
McLanahan’s Dewatering Screens use the highest G force on the market, which enables them to handle the largest loads. An optional pump add-on can provide ideal water placement for a cleaner product, while limiting water usage.
EcoPRESS Modular Filter Presses
EcoPRESS Modular Filter Presses provide the ability to optimize tailings management with the recovery of clean, reusable water. The EcoPRESS Filter Press can address many typical issues associated with fine material processing, including full slurry ponds/tailings dams, high material handling equipment repair costs, limited expansion capabilities, environmental permit restrictions, high waste material handling costs and limited water availability.
EcoCYCLE Modular Elevated Thickeners
EcoCYCLE Modular Elevated Thickeners provide a compact and modular solution for water recycling and sludge handling. EcoCYCLE Thickeners come complete with motor, pump, floc dosing station, control panel and control cabin.
Helping Customers Across The Globe
James Nolan, who owns Tri-Parish Sand and Gravel with his wife, Gail, has always been concerned about the cleanliness of the products they use in their ready mix facility. They strive to deliver quality products on the concrete side of their business, which starts with the material used to make those products. Tri-Parish Sand and Gravel is a dry mining operation located in Louisiana, USA. They produce C-33 concrete sand, pea gravel and #57 concrete gravel for use in their ready mix operation, Parish Ready Mix.
To better control the quality of their concrete products as well as lower their production costs so they could pass those savings onto their customers, the Nolans purchased land for dry mining their own sand and gravel. They looked at a few wash plants in different parts of the country for processing the feed and separating it into the various products needed at their ready mix facility.
In 2020, Tri-Parish purchased the McLanahan UltraWASH 6206 Modular Wash Plant that debuted at CONEXPO/CON-AGG in Las Vegas. Availability was a key factor in the purchasing decision. Tri-Parish needed a wash plant quickly, and the McLanahan UltraWASH offered an entire wet processing plant in one compact, modular unit that was ready to run.
“We bought the plant, and we’re very, very pleased with it,” James Nolan said. “It definitely does way more than they said it would do.”
While there are a number of modular plant solutions available in the market, McLanahan is one of the only companies offering both custom and modular washing solutions. This, combined with years of processing design knowledge, provides unmatched industry expertise in providing the correct solution for your application.
McLanahan Corporation was founded in 1835 in Hollidaysburg, Pa., USA. Today, the company is in its fifth and sixth generations of family ownership with offices that provide local service and support in Asia, Australia and Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America and North America.
