In the Oil Sands mining process, "middlings" refers to a pasty slurry with the consistency of yogurt found at the center of a primary separation vessel. As heavier rocks and sand settle at the bottom and lighter oil (air-entrained bitumen) rises, the middlings are carefully extracted for further processing.
Since 2004, SlurryFlo control valves (by Special Alloy Fabricators) have been a critical component in this process.
These valves are trusted across the oil sands industry to modulate the flow of middlings withdrawal and many other challenging slurries, such as MFT and FFT.
