FLOMIN™ TFA

Advanced Thickening, Filtration & Dewatering Agents for Mining Operations

Engineered polymers that improve settling, enhance filtrate quality, reduce moisture and increase water recovery across mineral processing circuits.
Product Overview

What is FLOMIN™ TFA designed for?

FLOMIN™ TFA is a complete range of thickening agents, filtration aids and dewatering aids designed for solid–liquid separation across mining operations. The product line includes high‑performance flocculants, agents for inline flocculation and centrifugation, and specialized filtration aids engineered to improve cake permeability, water release and overall filtration efficiency.

In thickening circuits, FLOMIN™ TFA helps form stable flocs that enhance settling, overflow clarity and underflow density. For inline flocculation and centrifugation, the range supports the creation of stronger flocs adapted to fast‑mixing environments. In filtration applications, FLOMIN™ TFA improves cake structure by creating more permeable flocs, enhancing water flow through the cake, reducing residual moisture and decreasing solid content in the filtrate.
Beyond flocculants, the FLOMIN™ TFA portfolio also includes dedicated dewatering aids that are not flocculants. These surface‑modification agents accelerate water release, improve cake discharge and support dry stacking.

Application

Where / How FLOMIN™ TFA is typically used

FLOMIN™ TFA is used throughout mining dewatering circuits—from conventional thickeners and clarifiers to inline flocculation units, pressure filters, vacuum filters and centrifuges. The range adapts to a wide variety of ores and process conditions, supporting improved settling, water recovery, cake permeability and moisture reduction.

  • Thickening: improved settling, clarity and density.
  • Inline flocculation: creation of stronger flocs suitable for high‑turbulence mixing.
  • Filtration: formation of more permeable flocs, faster dewatering, reduced cake moisture, lower solids in filtrate.
  • Centrifugation: stronger, more resilient flocs for high‑shear separation.
  • Dewatering aids: non‑flocculant agents improving water release kinetics.
