Awarded for the most innovative pump project, installation or service introduced onto the market within the last 24 months.
WINNER:
KSB and CORNISH METALS: South Crofty Tin Mine
​
South Crofty Tin Mine ceased tin production in 1998 and the workings were allowed to flood. Approximately 8 million cubic meters of water now needs to be removed in order to adequately pump the mine out and enable resumption of tin mining from the deepest levels. Using innovative techniques and KSB BSX pumps, Cornish Metals have developed an energy efficient method of dewatering the mine.
