Corrosion-Proof Alloy Pressure Vessels for Mining Operations
Mining leaching operations extract valuable metals using aggressive chemical solutions that demand corrosion-proof construction. Roben Manufacturing’s corrosion-proof alloy pressure vessels serve the demanding requirements of hydrometallurgical processing.
Why Choose Mining Corrosion-Proof Alloy Vessels
Mineral leaching uses acids, cyanide solutions, and other aggressive chemicals to extract gold, copper, uranium, and other valuable metals. These solutions are highly corrosive, often at elevated temperatures. Corrosion-proof alloy vessels withstand these conditions while maintaining the integrity needed for safe, reliable operation in remote mining locations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you select the right alloy for corrosive service?
A: Alloy selection depends on the specific chemicals, concentrations, temperatures, and contaminants involved. We review published corrosion data, consult alloy manufacturers, and can arrange corrosion testing for unusual environments. Our goal is optimal performance at minimum cost.
Q: What corrosion-proof alloys do you work with?
A: We fabricate vessels from Hastelloy (B, C-276, C-22, C-2000), Inconel (625, 686), Monel (400, K-500), titanium (grades 2, 7, 12), tantalum, zirconium, and other specialty alloys. Material selection is based on your specific chemical environment.
Q: Can you provide solid alloy or clad construction?
A: Yes, we offer both solid alloy vessels and clad construction where the corrosion-resistant alloy is bonded to a carbon steel or stainless steel base. Clad construction reduces cost while providing full corrosion protection at wetted surfaces.
Q: What sizes do you manufacture?
A: We manufacture corrosion-proof alloy pressure vessels from pilot scale (50 gallons) through production scale (15,000+ gallons). Custom sizes are engineered to your specifications.
Q: What is typical lead time for corrosion-proof alloy vessels?
A: Lead times typically range from 18–28 weeks depending on size, alloy selection, and complexity. Exotic alloys like tantalum and zirconium may require longer lead times due to material procurement.
