Stornoway’s portable cone crusher is like no other machine in the southern hemisphere. Purpose built for our quarrying operation in northern Tasmania, the crusher offers the following benefits:

.Stornoway's portable cone crusher - ideal for concrete recycling

Robust construction also suits the recycling of concrete and bricks.

Stornoway’s Fintec 542 screening plant is ideal for screening material such as:

Stornoway's Fintec screening plant's fast output is ideal for contract work

The Fintec screen can output up to 3000 tonne per day (based on a 10 hour day).

Material is provided to the crusher via Daewoo 400 wheel loaders with 6m3 buckets.

Maintenance program development and support

Project scoping

The key to the success of any water or wastewater project is good planning. Whether you’re developing a greenfields site or just upgrading your infrastructure, we can guide you through scoping and planning for the water and wastewater component.

Outline of treatment options, capital and operating cost budgets and project specification are all provided.

If you need to submit a development application, our intimate understanding of environmental regulations and experience in the handling of water and wastewater approvals helps to streamline that process and get you through with minimum difficulty.

Greenfields site preparation works

Our background in civil construction enables us to address all aspects of site preparation required for the installation of our factory-built wastewater treatment systems. Works such as pump station and storage tank installation, pad construction, pipelines, drainage and fencing can all be completed.

This one stop approach means Stornoway can take responsibility for providing a complete treatment solution.

Installation and commissioning

All our water and wastewater treatment systems are supplied with a complete installation and commissioning service.

Once freighted to site, our plant technicians complete all service connections and implement a comprehensive plant start-up procedure. They then oversee the plant commissioning phase to ensure the system will consistently meet all performance requirements.

Depending on the type of system and the performance standards required, commissioning may involve periodic monitoring and fine tuning over a period of days, weeks or months.

Plant servicing

Sewerage, wastewater and water treatment plants utilise components and processes that are affected by the quality of the influent (what goes into the system) as well as the climate. Some of the factors that can change the characteristic of sewerage and process from a mining camp include:

    • A change in cooking style
    • A change in cleaning chemicals
    • Very hot or very cold days.

    • This is particularly relevant for sewerage treatment plants which use living organisms in the treatment process.

    Stornoway has combined our significant operational knowledge with the 35 years’ combined experience of our engineers to maximise the ability of our plants to withstand such variations.

    Some of our improvements including hard-faced seats on seals, stainless steel impellors on pumps and the installation of alarms and monitoring equipment so we know when the plant has been affected by a treatment variation.

    However, the most important component is the operator. Our experience shows that they must have the necessary experience and training to monitor the equipment.

    Changes in operational conditions of the plant can usually be corrected before they start to affect dependability. But if the operator doesn’t have the right knowledge or training, the treatment process may degrade to the point when it stops. Water and sewerage treatment plant are an essential component on any mine site – particularly the isolated ones – so not having sewerage or potable water in a camp will have a significant impact. In fact, it could mean all site operations stop!

    Stornoway understands the critical nature of these plants and our staff are trained and skilled in carrying out servicing and maintenance.

    Before we start servicing, operation or maintenance, we install a SCADA smart communications system onto the treatment plant. This back-to-base support allows our technicians and engineers to monitor the plant operation from our Australian support hub and made any needed adjustments.

    We also understand that customer need will vary depending on the skill of site personnel. That’s why we offer three levels of service to suit your needs.
