60tph limestone sand washing & water recycling

It sounds like you're looking for a solution for a 60 tons per hour (tph) limestone sand washing and water recycling system. Here is a brief overview of how such a system could be structured:

1. Feeding System:

  • Hopper & Conveyor: A hopper to feed the raw limestone into the washing unit with a conveyor system.

2. Sand Washing System:

  • Washing Screen or Scrubber: To separate the fines and contaminants from the limestone aggregate. For limestone, depending on particle size, a trommel screen or log washer might be used.
  • Sand Washer: Spiral or wheel type sand washer to remove impurities and wash the limestone aggregate.

3. Water Recycling System:

  • Settling Tank/Clarifier: To separate the water from the solid particles. Sedimentation tanks or clarifiers can help the fines settle to the bottom.
  • Thickener: To further concentrate the slurry and recycle as much water as possible.
  • Filter Press: Optionally, a filter press can be used to dewater the fines for easier disposal and further water recovery.

4. Material Conveyor System:

  • Belt Conveyors: To transport washed limestone to stockpiles or the next stage of processing.

5. Control System:

  • PLC System: For automatic control and monitoring of the entire process, ensuring efficient and continuous operation.

Benefits:

  • Environmental Compliance: Proper water recycling means less environmental impact and compliance with local regulations.
  • Cost Savings: Reduced water consumption and disposal costs.
  • Product Quality: Enhanced product quality by removing impurities and fines from the limestone sand.

Considerations:

  • Space requirements for tanks and equipment.
  • Initial Capital Investment.
  • Maintenance of filters and washing components.

With a setup like this, you can expect better efficiency, a reduced environmental footprint, and high-quality limestone sand ready for use in construction or other applications.
