MET63 designed, engineered and commissioned a 52-module ion exchange plant producing high-purity nickel sulphate within a high-security brownfield site.

Challenge
A high-purity nickel sulphate processing facility was required to be engineered and commissioned within an existing brownfield operation. Security restrictions, space constraints and zero tolerance for disruption to the host plant shaped every design decision.

Outcome
A 52-module ion exchange plant, pre-fabricated and tested off-site before re-erection and commissioning on the brownfield site. The modular design was the only viable execution strategy given the site constraints.
