Tyre Stewardship Australia’s Post

The PC3400 is like a PC2000 on steroids, resulting in another exceptionally robust model to the range.

How can Core Tray Pallets help the Mining Industry? The mining industry plays a significant role in Australia's economy. Plastic core trays are typically used to transport core samples from mine sites to the lab, making the transport and storage of plastic core trays important. Our latest blog will discuss how core tray pallets can assist mining companies in ensuring the seamless movement of their plastic core trays and core samples.

Transform tailings into opportunities! 🌱💧 Dredging and dewatering can do more than just manage tailings—it can recover valuable materials from slurry, ready for reprocessing. Not only does this approach boost efficiency and safety, but it also contributes to recycling efforts and reduces environmental impact. A smarter way to handle waste for the mining industry. 

ResourceCo's innovative tyre recycling operations continue to grow with an Australian first off the road tyre cutter from Salvadori Recycling being commissioned at Tyrecycle's new facility in Port Hedland. Named the T-Rex, this piece of equipment will play a key role in the new facility's processing capacity, pre-processing the off the road mining tyres for further refinement at Tyrecycle’s East Rockingham site.

Several years ago, the company recognised that solving customers’ most pressing mining tyre challenges would require going beyond technicians’ everyday work around the wheel. Today, Kal Tire’s commitment to innovation has led to the development of proprietary, purpose-built mining tyre management tools and technology that didn’t exist before. The offerings and products range from tyre recycling technology that sees virtually 100% of circular outputs reused, to remote-controlled clamps for safer tyre and wheel assembly removal. “We believe it’s our responsibility to leverage our expertise to make work around the wheel as safe as possible and help customers improve productivity,” says Dan Allan, Senior Vice President, Kal Tire’s Mining Tire Group. As mines place greater and greater importance on reducing total cost of ownership and improving sustainability, some of Kal Tire’s innovations have also become increasingly sophisticated and necessary. Case in point: the accredited, custom-built carbon calculator at the foundation of the Maple Program, which gives customers certificates highlighting the oil and emissions savings of choosing Kal Tire retreads and repairs compared to buying new tyres. Now reaching every stage of tyre life, several Kal Tire tools and offerings have come together under the sub-brand KalPRO: Progressive Innovation. “It’s all to help our teams and customers advance in a way that’s practical, purposeful and future-minded,” says Allan.

Introducing Tyrecycle's off the road tyre cutter from Salvadori Recycling! Have a listen to the power of the aptly named 'T-Rex' as it chomps through mammoth mining truck tyres 🦖 This T-Rex, the first in Australia, has been installed at our new mining tyre and conveyor belt recycling facility in Pt Hedland in WA – the only facility of its type in the country. The T-Rex will pre-process mining tyres for further refinement at our East Rockingham facility, saving Pilbara based mining companies the cost of transporting these tyres themselves. We've been working closely with mining sector partners on improving the industry's management of end of life off the road tyres, and commissioning this equipment is an important part of a more sustainable future. #mining #miningaustralia #sustainability #tyrerecycling

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is teaming up with Brazilian mining company Vale to boost sustainability in steel production. The DOE is investing $282.8 million in a new iron ore briquette plant in the U.S., expected to cut pollution by about 10% compared to traditional steelmaking. This innovative method uses low-temperature agglomeration to produce high-quality iron ore briquettes, offering a more energy-efficient alternative. #steel #steelmaking #innovation #technology #future #sustainability https://lnkd.in/dm39Rkpk

EnviCore and Heidelberg Partner to Turn Mining Waste into Green Cement - EnviCore Inc., a Calgary-based company, is making strides toward sustainable construction by developing an innovative cement ingredient using waste from mining and construction. This breakthrough product, a form of green cement, offers significant reductions in the carbon footprint of traditional cement. EnviCore's partnership with Heidelberg Materials, one of the world’s largest cement producers, indicates that the technology has serious potential to disrupt the industry. A Green Cement Alternative Through SCMs EnviCore's technology focuses on supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) from mine tailings, fly ash, and construction debris (like concrete and glass). These SCMs can partially replace clinker, a key ingredient in traditional Portland cement. Clinker production is extremely carbon-intensive, releasing significant greenhouse gases during limestone decomposition and high-temperature heating.

It goes without saying that tyres used in mining operations must endure some of the toughest conditions. While they are designed to endure challenging terrain, they are still susceptible to punctures and damage from wear and tear over time. Replacing tyres on mining fleets can be an expensive exercise. Not only that but it also results in reduced productivity. A more viable option is repairing tyres by establishing an on-site tyre repair facility. This is where Chemvulc South Africa’s expertise can assist. With a track record that spans more than 40 years, #Chemvulc manufactures specialised tyre repair materials for OTR tyres, including ultra-large mining tyres. https://lnkd.in/dg3C2mEp

A global low carbon ammonium nitrate milestone achieved in Spain Orica and Grupo Fertiberia have partnered to successfully execute the first blast using low-carbon Technical #AmmoniumNitrate (TAN) at the CANTERAS DE SANTULLAN SA #calciumcarbonate quarry in #Spain. This milestone follows the announcement in September 2023, where #Orica and #Fertiberia unveiled their collaboration to provide low-carbon TAN to customers seeking sustainable blasting solutions. For the blast at the Canteras de Santullán, Orica used ammonium nitrate produced by Fertiberia using #renewablehydrogen, resulting in a low-carbon #explosive product. For the first time, conventional explosives were replaced with an innovative and more sustainable product, marking its first industrial-scale use. Fertiberia’s Director for Industrial Development and Projects Gonzalo Fernández Ozalla said: “The decarbonisation of mining, a crucial sector for the energy transition due to its role in extracting copper and other essential industrial minerals, is set to begin with the first use of a more sustainable product. The blast marks a further step towards reducing the #carbonfootprint of mining activities.” Orica says low-carbon TAN has the potential to transform the industry, as it provides a more sustainable and environmentally friendly solution to conventional TAN. Pedro de Andrés Sáez, General Manager Canteras de Santullán, said: “We are proud that Fertiberia and Orica selected Santullán’s quarry for this pioneering moment in mining, both in Spain and Europe. The blast involves the use of ammonium nitrate produced with a lower carbon footprint. As a company, we are deeply committed to sustainability, environmental stewardship, and maintaining a strong relationship with the local community – This product supports that commitment.” Orica’s Lead Commercial for Southern Europe JESUS FELIX DOMINGO PERLADO said: “Mining is a necessity as the world transitions, and it is crucial we mine safely, more efficiently, and more sustainably. The collaboration between Orica, Fertiberia, and Canteras de Santullán to use #lowcarbon ammonium nitrate represents a significant advancement in the #explosives industry, and for the broader mining industry.” #futureofblasting #futureofmining
