TAILINGS DAM CAPACITY
INCREASING DRAINED TAILINGS INTERNAL SHEAR STRENGTH
The disposal of filtered tailings is a method of high-water recovery, reduced storage space, high slope and innovative, but it is limited by the high rainfall rates in the area of influence.
To eliminate the impact of possible tailings washing by precipitation, ImmoCem generates high resistance, impermeability, encapsulation and high solidification, guaranteeing safety and stability of the Dry Stacking.
