What We Do
We solve difficult solid-liquid separation problems.
Solutions
Take the whole job, or just the part you need.
Most clients take the full turnkey plant. Where you need a single element, we supply that as a standalone service.
Process Engineering
Design and optimise processes that improve recovery, efficiency and performance.
Controls & Automation
Reduce variability and improve operational control through smart automation solutions.
Turnkey Projects
Deliver projects safely and efficiently from concept through commissioning.
Pilot Plants & Rental
Deploy proven global technologies tailored to your specific application.
Service & Support
Keep plants performing at their best with responsive, global technical support and optimisation.
Applications
Wherever solids meet liquids.
Built for abrasive, high-throughput duty
The Hiller decanter is purpose-built for mining, with hard-wearing components and high-capacity throughput. Installed upstream of the tailings storage facility, it produces dry stackable solids while returning recovered water to the process for reuse.
Municipal and industrial water recovery
Environmental and municipal wastewater treatment, potable water clarification and disinfection, including seasonal demand handled with containerised rental units.
Higher yield, uncompromised quality
Spent grains dewatering, fish and fishmeal processing, yeast extraction, wine lees treatment and juice extraction, plus agricultural processing including kelp extract.
Chemical, specialist and regulated industries
Salt, fertiliser, chemical processing and oil and grease separation, plus pharmaceuticals, paper and polymers, chemicals and energy, and defence, each engineered for the duty and its standards.
Our diverse applications
Beyond the core markets, the same separation disciplines serve pharmaceutical and biotech, defence, paper and polymers, chemical and energy, and environmental duties, from kelp and botanical extracts to ATEX-rated dewatering and energy-efficient MVR systems.
Our Commitment
World class technology.
One team.
Complete support.
We combine proven separation technologies from leading global partners with local engineering, project delivery and lifecycle support. From concept and design through commissioning and optimisation, you work with one team focused on achieving better process outcomes.
