Metals & Mining

Fire risks driven by process heat, reagents and conveying systems rather than by hydrocarbons alone.

Characteristic hazards

  • Molten material contact with water
  • Reagent and solvent storage fires in hydrometallurgy
  • Conveyor and dust fires
  • Hydrogen and acid handling

Assets we work on

  • Smelters and furnace buildings
  • Hydrometallurgical plants and leach circuits
  • Concentrators and material handling
  • Reagent storage and preparation

What we deliver here

  • Hazard identification specific to the process route
  • Suppression selection where water is the wrong agent
  • Detection in dusty and high-temperature environments
  • Fire strategy for reagent storage and handling areas
