Soil washing can use screening to remove oversized debris and separate coarse soil from finer material for different downstream treatment steps.
Screening Objective
Choose screen cuts based on characterization of the actual site material and the treatment plan. Screening separates particle sizes; it does not establish that a fraction meets cleanup criteria.
Process and Equipment Selection
Evaluate feed moisture, clays, debris and whether a wet screening step is appropriate. Plan containment and handling of both the solid fractions and process water with the remediation team.
Information for a Quotation
Provide the size distribution, proposed separation cuts, throughput, available water and site-specific containment requirements.
