Tri-Chem supplies chemicals commonly used in mining operations, including:

Sulphuric acid is widely used in leaching processes, particularly in hydrometallurgical extraction of metals. It assists in dissolving target minerals and improving recovery efficiency in heap leaching and tank leaching operations.

Hydrochloric acid is commonly used for scale removal, acid cleaning and maintenance of process equipment, pipelines and heat exchangers. It helps remove mineral deposits and improves operational efficiency.

Caustic soda is used for pH adjustment and neutralisation in mineral processing circuits and effluent treatment systems. It is also used for alkaline cleaning of process equipment and plant maintenance.

Sodium hypochlorite and calcium hypochlorite are used for disinfection and microbial control in mine water systems. These chemicals assist in controlling biological growth in storage ponds, pipelines and treatment plants.

Soda ash is used for pH stabilisation and water conditioning in mining water treatment applications. It helps maintain suitable operating conditions in flotation and processing circuits.

Potassium hydroxide is used in specialised pH control applications and chemical processing where strong alkaline conditions are required.

Glycols such as mono ethylene glycol and di ethylene glycol are used in cooling systems, dust suppression mixtures and heat transfer applications in mining equipment.
