Solid/liquid separation co-operation renewed Larox Corp has recently signed an co-operation agreement with Codelco Chile to continue the work of both parties to improve solid/liquid separation solutions for process steps in concentration, hydrometallurgy and smelting. The agreement follows on from one signed by both companies back in 1997. According to Toivo Matti Karppanen, president of Larox, Codelco Chile and Larox have found the co-operation beneficial. Future joint work will focus on the possibilities to improve the actual processes, increase the efficiency of solid/liquid separation, cut operational costs and improve final product quality.

The company belongs to the Chilean state and its main business is exploring for, developing and operating mines containing copper and by-products, the processing of them into refined copper and selling them. In recent years, Codelco Chile has accounted for an average of 18% of Chile's exports.
