Project Description

Kenmare Resources plc appointed Aveng Engineering to detail design, construct and commission the expansion of the Moma Titanium Minerals Mine on the north-eastern coast of Mozambique.

The Minerals Separation Plant (MSP) of the Moma Titanium Minerals Mine processes the titanium minerals ilmenite and rutile, as well as the zirconium silicate mineral, zircon. A heavy mineral concentrate (HMC), consisting of all three minerals, is produced by the floating plant. This is then pumped to the MSP, where it is separated into the final products for export via Kenmare’s company-owned port facility.

Aveng Engineering appointed Greene Consulting Engineers (Pty) Ltd for the civil- and structural engineering design, as well as construction monitoring services of the MSP. Being on the coast, the location of the site is a highly corrosive environment, and also falls in a cyclone region for which the appropriate design wind loads had to be researched in collaboration with the CSIR.

TOTAL PROJECT VALUE: US $ 380 MILLION

Project Description

Kellogg Company had nine production facilities in their Asia Pacific region in 2010. At that stage, the newly appointed Director of Engineering for the region required a comprehensive assessment to be conducted at each facility in order to establish the condition of the infrastructure and how it impacted their food safety in the long- and short term. The information collected was classed into four main categories: emergency repairs; repairs; preventative maintenance; and upgrades.

Based on the assessment reports, informed decisions could be made regarding budget allocations, future projects, expansion requirements and emergency work, to ensure the infrastructure remains fit for purpose for the foreseeable future.

Project Description

Howden Africa engineer and construct, among others, systems for mine ventilation. Their product line includes some of the largest surface mine ventilation fans in operation, as well as smaller fans for auxiliary and booster applications.

Greene Consulting Engineers (Pty) Ltd was approached by Howden to design the foundations of the surface mine ventilation fans. This would allow them to offer a turnkey solution to their clients. The fact that Howden’s product offerings can be customised and are constructed in all types of difficult mining environments drives Greene to design creatively. Dynamic analysis of the foundation structures is of the utmost importance. The varying ground conditions and equipment operating frequencies influence the natural frequencies of the structures and, therefore, the variations in designs.
