Process Engineer at METC - Metallurgical Engineering Technology & Construction - Sandton, Gauteng, South Africa
METALLURGICAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY & CONSTRUCTIONWe are multidisciplinary process engineers, mechanical engineers electrical engineers, civil and structural engineers and project managers.METC design and build metallurgical process plants. We can start projects from the ground up starting with scoping studies, PFS and DFS studies moving through detailed engineering and project execution. We are very responsive team with years of experience able to execute EPCM projects and complete preliminary and detailed engineering design as part of project teams. We have been members of both the owners and contractor teams and have managed EPCM and EPC fixed price projects.Through the design and successful commissioning of these plants, METC has developed excellent process knowledge in the following fields:Material flow and material handlingCrushing - Tooth Roll, jaw, gyratory, HPGRComminution - FAG, SAG, Ball, Verti, ultra-fine millingHeap LeachingFlotationAgitation LeachingSolvent ExtractionGravity Recovery- Spirals, centrifugal concentrators, DMS/HMSElutionElectrowinning (gold and copper)Dewatering - Thickening/Cyclones, FiltrationSorters -X-ray, opticalDetoxification (Cyanide)Smelting METC always utilises innovative approaches to increase speed of construction, reduce capital cost and improve efficiency This includes:Use of Reinforced earthen wallsUse of Segmented tanksModularisation of plantUse of right sized equipmentSkid mounted designs.Minimisation of drop heights to reduce plant footprints, cost, energy consumptionUse 4D modeling to integrate the schedule with the 3D model to confirm the integrity of the construction scheduleUse of integrated design databasesExtensive cost database from where lower order costs can be extractedContact us at info@metcengineering.com
