We have classified as typical for solar ponds around the Mediterranean Sea the range of compositions our samples have found most common. Solar pond products that vary from this range could easily be optimized to achieve that typical range. Consequently, our GEA Messo Standard Salt Wash, as described below, is based on this most frequent composition range.
The GEA Messo Standard Salt Wash can be modified easily to handle stockpiles of crude salt which does not belong to this basic design. For example, a flotation unit is included, to reduce high Gypsum concentrations. An important issue in preparing any Salt Wash design is the method of sampling to ensure that samples are representative, since critical design choices are made according to the composition of the crude salt.
Every GEA Messo Salt Wash plant is robust by design so that it can operate reliably under daily industrial use with minimal downtime, and cannot be compared with simple belt conveyed screw-type wash systems. All parts in contact with salt solution are made of corrosion & erosion resistant Duplex stainless steel or high quality plastic material. The multi-cyclones, centrifuges and mills are made by manufacturers who are world-wide leaders in their specialization.
