Uranium

Uranium Processing Expertise gained in 20 years all over the world.

Calciner/Dryer

ACE design and build both Dryers and Calciners in modular format providing excellent efficiency and the smallest footprint available. ACE Calciners are the most efficient and cleanest in the world today.

Dewatering

ACE Dewatering modules have the ability to increase your slurry solids concentration from 20%w/w up to 80%w/w with less than 0.5% solids reporting to the liquid recycle stream.

Drum Packing

ACE designs and builds fully automatic Drum Packing systems. These unique modules fill, sample, lid and label the drums completely unattended and without the need for any operator intervention.

Offgas

The ACE Offgas treatment modules are matched with the kiln and calciner modules to recover process gases and dust, and ensure that stack emissions comply with the stringent targets set by International Standards and achieve world best practice.

Fluid Bed & Precipitators

ACE holds the licence for the supply of ORANO (AREVA)-patented Fluid Bed Precipitators which provide greatly improved precipitation performance resulting in larger, more spherical particles, increased plant throughput, better product purity owing to improved washing and OH&S improvement owing to less dust generation. ACE has constructed a mobile fluid bed test facility which enables tests to be carried out on a Client’s site to prove the advantages of the process prior to its implementation.

Complete Modular Process Plant

ACE has patented modular process designs to fit your process flowsheet. The completed factory tested modules simply plug together to form a complete processing plant. Installation and commissioning time and cost is dramatically reduced with guaranteed outcomes.

Plant Testing Using New Precipitation Technology

The process offers benefits including:
  • Larger crystals
  • Fewer fines
  • Increased purity
  • Reduced operating cost
  • Simpler to maintain and operate
  • Higher packed density
  • Increased U content
  • Improved OH and S by 50% dust reduction
  • Lower capital cost
