Case Study 10: Moving Copper By Road To Port – Chile

Case Studies Series – 10
Moving copper by road from a mine site in Chile to a container port in Antofagasta
The containers carry 28 tons of copper and have been sampled and graded at the mine site before being transported to the port. Using the containers as a storage shed at the port saving on expensive sheds and double handling of the product. Loading the ship using a tippler, the first time the lid has been taken off the containers since the loading at the mine site.

Cumpliendo con el Acuerdo de Produccion Limpia de Antofagasta
ATI ya cuenta con la technologia de embarque a traves de contenedores de volteo. La carga de concentrados minerales Ilega a t terminal y es embarcada en un procesco 100% hermetico. ATI opera 400 contenedores de volteo para embarcar sin emisiones cerca de 11 mil toneladas de concentrado de cobre y zinc por cada nave.

Paso 1: Ilegan al puerto los contenedores que han sido cargados, sellados y lavados por cada empresa minera.

Paso 2: en el terminal, un spreader toma cada contenedor, le quita la tapa y voltea el material sobre la bodega de la nave.

Paso 3: el contenedor vuelve as ser tapdo y luego transportado a la zona de lavado.

Gracias a este proceso no quedan restos de material en los contenedores ni en las instalaciones del puerto o la nave. Esta logistica, hermitica, elimina todo riesgo de derrame durante el trayecto, desde la mina hacia el puerto. Con este avance, AATI reafirma su compromiso con el Acuerdo de Produccion Limpia y con la cuidad de Antofagasta.
