Paterson & Cooke regularly conduct pilot plant test work at our laboratories or on site. We have portable equipment and instrumentation available to conduct flocculation, thickening, rheology and pipe loop test work campaigns either at our laboratories or on site.

Our staff have managed a number of on site and laboratory based pilot investigations for thickened and paste tailings applications.

Our laboratory facilities have the capability to conduct prototype model testing of slurry related process equipment. We have the knowledge and experience to scale the findings from these investigations to full scale.
